    Hi folks: Mark Colonna emailed me to suggest that due to a variety of reasons only found with Biolase machines that he doesnt suggest polishing the tips if they start to break down. I dont have the Millenium so if this is true , you might want to make sure that you dont follow my advice.

    For those of you that have the Delight laser then you CAN do this.

    How do you polish your ERBIUM tips?
    I ordered a Brassler polishing diamond wheel kit. Where do I go from there?
    Thanks. Jeff

    Hi Jeff. I just take a cup of one of these flat polishing discs and buff the end very slowly with a slowspeed under high mag to try and take the shards off.

    My guess is that you get a 50% improvement over the old tip, but I will ask that you check with Opus dent if this is ok as I know it is fine with the Conbio but might not be fine with the Opus.
