Why Now is the Time to Consider Own Brand Restoratives
Most people are aware that choosing an own brand product over big-named brands can save them money. This is as true when stocking up on dental consumables as it is when walking around a supermarket, where nearly half of consumers now opt for own brand items. But some dentists continue to shy away from own brand dental products. This is sometimes down to a lack of information or scepticism around quality. The ideal solution to this is products that can be purchased risk-free, which is true of all Kent Express own brands restoratives from DEHP and Cybertech.
Zero chance of buyer’s remorse
No matter how big the assurances of a product’s quality, it is only natural to be hesitant when switching from a restorative you’ve used for years to a less familiar alternative. To help ease these concerns, all our own brand products come with a no quibble 100% money-back guarantee as standard. This means that if you happen to buy an own brand restorative product that you’re not happy with, you can send it back to us for a full refund – no questions asked.
Our own brand guarantee means you can try out a variety of our money-saving restoratives free from the worry of buyer’s remorse.
Trusted by dentists
When considering trying an own brand product it can be reassuring if you know other dentists have already made the switch. Kent Express own brand products are used by 83% of our customers and are now our number one selling brands for glass ionomer, burs, pouches, gloves, impression materials and more. In total, over 1.5 million units of Kent Express own brand products have been delivered to more than 4,000 dental practices across the UK and Ireland since 2021.
Saving you money
One of the biggest benefits of switching to our own brand restoratives is the money that it can save. With sky-high energy bills and the ongoing cost of living crisis, now is a perfect time to think about what restorative materials and other consumables you might be spending over the odds on.

No drop-off in quality
One myth that has always lingered around own brand products is that they are not as good quality as bigger, multinational brands. This isn’t true. Many own brand restoratives are virtually identical to their more expensive big brand equivalents and are regulated to the exact same standards. There is also no shortage of variety when it comes to own brand with all areas of modern restorative dentistry covered from nanohybrid composites to glass ionomer cements. Below are three of our most popular and bestselling restorative products for you to consider.
