Super-Snap

Composite Finishing & Polishing Disk System

DESCRIPTION

Super-Snap is SHOFU's SNAP-ON disk system for composite contouring, finishing, and polishing. The original four-color sequence — Black (coarse), Violet (medium), Green (fine), and Red (superfine) — takes a directly placed composite restoration from finished contour to high-gloss surface luster without polishing paste. The family also includes Buff Disks, Polystrips, SNAP-ON Mandrels, factory kits (Rainbow Tech, Mini Kit, Singles), and the higher-aggression Super-Snap X-Treme line.

• Four-step disk sequence — Black contour, Violet finish, Green polish, Red high-gloss

• SNAP-ON mandrel — no center post in the working surface, no visible mark on the restoration

• Two diameters per shape (standard and Mini) for proximal and embrasure access

• Latex-free, single-patient option available — supports strict infection-control protocols

• Compatible with Super-Snap Buff Disks for final luster step

• Polystrips available for matching interproximal finishing

• Super-Snap X-Treme variant for more aggressive contour reduction on hard materials

• Used worldwide for direct composite finishing — recognized by Dental Advisor with Editors Choice 5+ rating

Why You'll Love It

Reach proximal anterior surfaces that cups and points cannot — Super-Snap disks were engineered for exactly this access.
Hit consistent high gloss on every anterior composite — the four-color sequence is repeatable across operators.
Stop marking the restoration with a center post — the SNAP-ON mandrel keeps the working surface clean.
Run a strict infection-control protocol without slowing down — single-patient disks eliminate the disinfection step.
Add Super-Snap X-Treme to your tray when the case needs faster contour reduction on hard composites or ceramic-modified materials.
Standardize the finishing protocol across the practice — the color-coded sequence is easy to teach and easy to verify.
Stock one finishing-polishing disk family that covers anteriors, posteriors, and most aesthetic adjustments at delivery.

If You Are Looking For...

If you are looking for an anterior composite finishing system that reaches proximal surfaces — Super-Snap disks are engineered for that access.
If you run a strict infection-control protocol — single-patient Super-Snap disks eliminate the disinfection step entirely.
If you want a four-step finishing-to-polishing sequence in one product family — Super-Snap covers contour, finish, polish, and high-gloss.
If you need a more aggressive disk for reducing hard or thick-cured composite — Super-Snap X-Treme is the matched higher-aggression option.
If you place a lot of layered anterior composites — the Buff Disks deliver glaze-like final luster without polishing paste.
If you finish chairside interproximal contacts — Super-Snap Polystrips give you matching strip-grade finishing.

FOUR-STEP DISK SEQUENCE

Black for contour reduction, Violet for finishing, Green for polishing, and Red for the final high-gloss step. Each disk uses a SNAP-ON mandrel without a center post that could mark the working surface. The color-coded sequence is easy to teach to assistants, easy to verify at the chair, and produces a repeatable result across operators.

STEP-BY-STEP TECHNIQUE

Start with Black to reduce excess composite and shape the final contour. Move to Violet to smooth the surface and remove finishing marks. Use Green to polish to a satin finish. Finish with Red to achieve high-gloss natural-looking surface luster. For glaze-like final luster, add a single pass with a Super-Snap Buff Disk.

SUPER-SNAP BUFF DISKS

The Buff Disks are the dedicated final-luster step. Available in standard and Mini diameters for embrasure and proximal access. Used after the four-color sequence to deliver a glaze-like polish without polishing paste.

SUPER-SNAP POLYSTRIPS

Interproximal finishing strips that complement the disk family. Available in Green (fine) and Red (superfine) for contact-area refinement and polish on Class II, III, and IV composite restorations.

SUPER-SNAP X-TREME

Higher-aggression disk variant. The X-Treme diamond-impregnated abrasive cuts harder composites, ceramic-modified hybrids, and zirconia-reinforced materials faster than the conventional Black disk while preserving the SNAP-ON, no-center-post mandrel design.

KITS AND ACCESSORIES

Available as individual 50-pack refills per color, in the Mini Kit (48 assorted disks across all four colors), in the Rainbow Technique Kit, in factory Singles packs (one color per pack), and with matched SNAP-ON Mandrels in standard and CA shanks.

DENTAL ADVISOR RECOGNITION

Super-Snap X-Treme has been recognized with a Dental Advisor Editors Choice 5+ rating in clinical evaluations alongside the BEAUTIFIL II LS composite — independent peer recognition for everyday clinical performance.
