The KIN Starter Appointment is an extremely thorough visit in which we collect all the necessary data in order to form an accurate diagnosis and create a treatment plan together with you.
Data collection includes photos, x-rays, 3D scans, teeth and gum mapping etc
For all of our hygiene procedures, we use a wonderful Swiss technology called the EMS Airflow. This technology uses a warm water/powder spray to very thorough and comfortably clean your teeth.
A positive and comfortable experience is of the utmost importance to us. Over decades of treating patients we have developed techniques and also curated technologies to ensure we deliver the best experience possible.
Dental resin is an advanced plastic material engineered to bond very well to tooth structure and ‘fill’ up minor defects. It’s not as strong as natural tooth structure and as a plastic will scratch, discolour and degrade over time (much like a plastic Tupperware container). Used in appropriate settings, resin restorations have a lifespan of 5-12 years.
+ cheaper than ceramic alternatives
+ most conservative (resin can be moulded to whatever shape we want meaning we get drill less and save more of your tooth structure)
+ for minor aesthetic improvements, we can often make big improvements with minimum intervention
– very technique sensitive – bonding and placement protocols MUST be followed strictly otherwise quality of the restoration is drastically reduced
– isn’t as strong as tooth structure so doesn’t wear well under situations where high strength/support is needed
– surface roughens easily leading to more plaque build up and thus higher risk of re-decay
