The K-DAM product from Kiyomi Dental is an innovative gingival barrier designed to protect soft tissues during various dental procedures, such as whitening treatments and microabrasion procedures. One of its most outstanding features is its high thixotropy, meaning it does not run during application, allowing precise control in the working area and facilitating effective isolation.
The Differentiating Value of K-DAM
K-DAM is known as a “liquid dam” because it acts as a barrier that protects the gums without causing irritation, a crucial aspect of the patient experience. Its direct application allows for easy handling and removal at the end of the treatment, enabling both dentists and patients to benefit from its effectiveness and simplicity.
One of its greatest advantages is its ability to absorb light and maintain precise dimensional control. This ensures that K-DAM cures properly under the curing light, optimising treatment time and preventing complications that may arise from inadequate application.
In Which Procedures Does It Stand Out?
K-DAM is particularly effective in dental whitening and microabrasion treatments, where soft tissue protection is essential to avoid irritation or damage caused by whitening agents such as hydrogen peroxide. In addition, its ability to define the working area improves treatment precision, helping dentists apply the product with greater accuracy.
Another of its key applications is as an auxiliary isolation material, providing a firm seal in treatments that require absolute isolation of individual teeth. This is especially useful when the use of a rubber dam is neither necessary nor convenient.
Comfort and Safety for Patients
The formulation of K-DAM is designed to maximise patient comfort during treatment. By preventing irritation of gingival tissues, it reduces the possibility of side effects such as dental sensitivity or burns, significantly improving the patient’s experience in the dental chair. This aspect not only enhances patient wellbeing but also increases the professional’s confidence in using a safe and effective product.
Benefits for Dental Professionals
For dentists, K-DAM represents a versatile and efficient solution that optimises both working time and treatment quality. The ease with which it can be applied and removed, combined with its high precision, allows professionals to work more smoothly, reducing chair time and improving clinical outcomes.
In summary, K-DAM is more than just a light-curing resin. It is an indispensable tool for aesthetic and restorative dental treatments, providing safety, precision, and comfort for both professionals and patients.
You can purchase K-DAM from IPG Dental in a 2-gram syringe format with five applicator tips, designed to optimise every clinical session.
