“Because advancement rate and load are interrelated (in general, the application of higher loads should lead to more rapid advancement), combining the two parameters provides an overall indicator for the ease of advancement of the rotary cutting instrument inside the substrate. Indeed, a significant difference was found between the Two Striper^® and the other rotary cutting instrument groups.”

Rate of advancement of 5 different groups shown for 8 cuts. Rate showed decreasing trend with increase in cut number when averaged over all groups.
