3M™ Sof-Lex™ XT Pop-On Contouring Disks – Extra-Thin, Coarse Grit (12.7 mm / Dark Orange)

3M™ Sof-Lex™ XT Contouring Disks are the specialized "Extra-Thin" version of the classic Sof-Lex™ finishing system. The Coarse (Dark Orange) grit is the essential first step for gross contouring and anatomical shaping. This 12.7 mm (0.5 in) diameter version is the standard size for anterior restorations, offering a perfect balance between surface coverage and maneuverability in the aesthetic zone.

The XT (Extra-Thin) profile is a major clinical advantage: it allows the disk to be more flexible and provides easier access to interproximal surfaces that might be too tight for standard-thickness disks. Despite being thin, the coarse aluminum oxide coating provides the necessary abrasive power to quickly establish primary anatomy and remove excess material.

Advanced Features & Clinical Benefits

• Extra-Thin (XT) Flexibility: The reduced disk thickness allows for better adaptation to curved tooth surfaces and easier entry into narrow proximal contacts.
• Efficient Gross Reduction: The coarse grit quickly removes flash and overhangs, saving valuable chairside time during the initial shaping phase.
• Pop-On Simplicity: The low-profile mandrel system maximizes the usable abrasive area and allows for nearly instant disk changes between grits.
• Anterior Optimization: The 12.7 mm diameter is ideal for the labial and lingual surfaces of incisors and canines.
• Clear Grit Sequencing: The Dark Orange color clearly identifies this as the starting point in the XT "dark-to-light" polishing workflow.

Primary Indications

• Initial contouring and shaping of anterior composite restorations.
• Removal of excess restorative material and flash from margins in tight spaces.
• Gross anatomical refinement of Class III, IV, and V restorations.
• Adjusting the primary shape of anterior bis-acrylic temporary crowns.
