K-Dam: Advanced Protection and Precision in Dental Procedures Without Irritation.

The K-Dam product from Kiyomi Dental is an innovative gingival barrier designed to protect soft tissues during various dental procedures, such as whitening and microabrasion treatments. One of its most notable features is its high thixotropy, which means it does not run during application, allowing precise control in the working area and facilitating effective isolation. 

The Unique 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’s experience. Its direct application allows for easy manipulation and removal at the end of the treatment, benefiting both dentists and patients with its efficiency and simplicity. 

One of its most important advantages is its ability to absorb light and maintain precise dimensional control. This ensures that K-Dam cures properly under photopolymerization light, optimizing treatment duration and preventing complications that may arise from improper application. 

In Which Procedures Does It Excel?

K-Dam is particularly effective in dental whitening and microabrasion treatments, where protecting soft tissues is essential to avoid irritation or damage caused by bleaching agents such as hydrogen peroxide. Additionally, its ability to delineate the working area enhances treatment precision, helping the dentist apply the product with greater accuracy. 

Another key application is in auxiliary isolation, 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 not necessary or convenient. 

Comfort and Safety for Patients

K-Dam’s formulation is designed to maximize patient comfort during treatment. By preventing gingival tissue irritation, the likelihood of side effects such as dental sensitivity or burns is reduced, significantly improving the experience in the dental chair. This aspect not only improves patient well-being but also increases the professional’s confidence, knowing they are using a safe and effective product. 

Benefits for Dental Professionals

For the dentist, K-Dam represents a versatile and efficient solution that optimizes both working time and treatment quality. The ease with which it is applied and removed, combined with its high precision, allows professionals to work more smoothly, reducing 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 the professional and the patient. 

You can purchase K-Dam from IPG Dental, in a 2-gram syringe format with five applicator tips, designed to optimize each clinical session.
