정재욱 원장26.04.13Views 84Likes 0 [Health Column] Is Implant Swelling Normal? The Recovery Process and Self-Diagnosis Methods for Warning Signs[6]
hello! Lee Hyun-seop, Chief Director of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. Have you ever been worried because you looked in the mirror after implant treatment and your face looked more swollen than usual? 🦷 Especially if you are having implant surgery for the first time, even small changes can feel more significant. but Swelling of the implant itself is often a natural reaction that occurs during the recovery process. The important thing is, this swelling Is it within the normal range to wait? , or not Is it a signal that needs to be checked again? It is to distinguish. Today, I will summarize those criteria a little more simply! 1. Why does implant swelling occur? 🦷 This is a temporary reaction that may occur during the recovery process of the surgical site. During the implant surgery process, a small drilling is performed in the jawbone along with an incision in the gum. During this process, gum tissue, microvessels, and surrounding soft tissues are irritated, and the body triggers an inflammatory response to recover. At this time, as blood flow increases, the area around the surgery site may appear temporarily swollen, which can be considered implant swelling. In other words, swelling in many cases is It is a sign that recovery is progressing rather than that the surgery went wrong. It can be understood as. For example, there are cases where you feel your face looks a little more swollen after returning home or the next morning than immediately after surgery. In times like this, rather than immediately concluding it is more than ideal First, examine whether the change is within the recovery flow. This is important. ✔️In conclusion, rather than being too alarmed when you first see swelling, Trend of change over the past few days It is recommended to look at it together. 2. When is implant swelling most severe? It is often more noticeable on the 2nd or 3rd day after surgery than immediately after. Many people think that swelling is most severe on the day of surgery, but actually When swelling is most prominent on the 2nd or 3rd day There are many. Usually, it proceeds in the following flow. 🔹 Day of surgery → Swelling begins 🔹 2~3 days → Swelling peaks 🔹 4~5 days → Gradually decrease 🔹 1 week → Noticeable improvement in most cases Of course, there are individual differences in recovery speed. Depending on one's constitution or health condition, it may last for more than a week. Swelling may last a little longer, especially in the following cases. 🔸 Cases where bone grafting was performed concurrently 🔸 Cases where multiple implants are placed simultaneously 🔸 In cases of systemic diseases such as diabetes or hypertension 🔸 If you have a smoking habit For example, even if you undergo the same implant surgery, some people's implants subside quickly starting from the 4th or 5th day, while others' implants may take more than a week to fall out. so You need to be careful when simply comparing your recovery speed with that of others. 📌 Briefly checking the progress by date helps in assessing the condition. 3. How should I manage the implant to reduce swelling? The degree of swelling and the speed of recovery may vary depending on initial care and lifestyle habits. Post-surgery care is more important than you might think. This is because even with the same surgery, the degree of swelling and the recovery process can vary depending on the management method. 1. Cold compress for 48 hours after surgery Cold compresses are most important in the beginning. 10–15 minutes cold compress, 5–10 minutes rest Repeating this can help reduce swelling and bleeding. 2. Apply warm compresses after 2 to 3 days. Once the initial swelling subsides, you can help improve blood circulation through warm compresses. Warm compresses can help with tissue recovery and reduce inflammation. 3. Food and Lifestyle Management Lifestyle habits are also important for alleviating implant swelling. 🔸 Avoid hot and spicy foods 🔸 Temporarily pause intense workouts 🔸 Drink plenty of fluids 🔸 Take prescribed medication If you just follow these basic management steps, the recovery process can proceed much more stably. It’s not that it’s over once the surgery is finished, Management during the first few days can determine the course of recovery. It would be good if you understood it that way. 4. Which types of implant swelling require close monitoring? It is important to look at the accompanying signals rather than the swelling itself. Most swelling subsides naturally. ⚠️However, if the following symptoms appear together, it may not be just simple swelling. 🔸 If swelling continues to worsen 🔸 In cases of persistent severe pain 🔸 Bad breath or pus formation 🔸 Sensation of heat or fever In this case Possibility of peri-implantitis, hematoma, or infection Since this may occur, it is recommended to visit a dentist promptly to get checked. For example, if it feels fine at first but the swelling worsens and the pain intensifies over time, it is best not to simply dismiss it with the thought of "let's wait a little longer." This is because the recovery response generally tends to subside over time. Look at how the swelling is changing rather than whether there is swelling. If pain, heat, odor, and pus are present together, further investigation is required. 5. Why does implant swelling vary from person to person? Even with the same surgery, the recovery pattern can vary depending on your physical condition and the extent of the operation. Even after undergoing the same implant surgery, the degree of swelling varies from person to person. The main reasons are as follows. 🔸 Gum thickness 🔸 Jawbone Density 🔸 Surgical scope 🔸 Age 🔸 Immunity especially In cases where bone grafting was performed together Swelling may last longer than with regular implants. So rather than simply comparing with others, It is important to make a judgment based on your own recovery progress. For example, just because you hear someone say, “I got better in a few days,” you don’t need to immediately assume that your swelling is abnormal. This is because the recovery process can vary depending on the details of the surgery and the physical condition. 📌 Please keep in mind that recovery speed varies from person to person. 📌 Rather than comparing yourself to others Whether my condition is gradually improving It is more important to look at . 6. What lifestyle habits help manage implant swelling? There are basic habits that help with both swelling management and implant stability. Try maintaining the following habits to help with recovery. 🔸 Sleep with your pillow slightly elevated 🔸 A diet rich in protein and vitamins 🔸 Maintain abstinence from alcohol and smoking 🔸 Gently brush, avoiding the implant site 🔸 Use prescription mouthwash These habits can help not only with managing swelling but also with the implant settling in stably. Rather than a special method, Consistent basic management This is important. For example, simply avoiding keeping your head too low while sleeping or refraining from mindlessly eating spicy food immediately afterward can make a difference in the recovery process. Even if they seem small, these habits come together to make the recovery process a little more comfortable. 📌 Rather than difficult and complex management, Consistently maintaining the basic rules to be followed This is the key. FAQ Q1. Is all swelling after implant surgery a warning sign? A1. That is not the case. Swelling after implant surgery is mostly a natural reaction that can occur during the normal recovery process. Q2. When does implant swelling usually start to subside? A2. Usually, it is most pronounced on the 2nd or 3rd day after surgery, gradually decreases from the 4th or 5th day, and often subsides significantly after about a week. Q3. When should I visit the dentist again if there is swelling? A3. If swelling continues to worsen, severe pain persists, or is accompanied by bad breath, pus, a sensation of heat, or fever, further examination may be necessary. conclusion Swelling from implants is mostly a natural part of the recovery process. no see. While the presence of swelling after surgery does not necessarily mean there is a problem, it is important to monitor whether it is subsiding over time or if it is a sign of worsening. The speed of recovery may vary depending on initial care and lifestyle habits. Simply following basic guidelines, such as applying cold compresses, managing your lifestyle, and taking prescribed medication, can help with recovery. However, if the swelling worsens or is accompanied by pain, heat, or pus, do not delay and have your condition checked at a dental clinic. Rather than being unconditionally anxious, knowing both the normal recovery range and warning signs. This is the most important thing.

hello, Director Lee Hyeon-seop of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. It is easy to think of implants as a “treatment that just ends with implantation”, In reality A long recovery process called osseointegration Determine this success do. Especially since smoking directly and indirectly affects this process, Many people ask, “When can I start smoking?” What's actually important is Do you smoke/don't you smoke? Not, 👉 Which time is the most dangerous? , 👉 What Leads to Failure , 👉 How far should we realistically manage? no see. Why is smoking a problem after implants? 🦷 This is because factors that hinder recovery occur intensively during the osseointegration stage. ✔️ Recovery is delayed due to reduced blood flow Nicotine constricts peripheral blood vessels. Blocking the supply of oxygen and nutrients do. Because blood flow is your lifeline in early recovery, smoking during this stage can make even small problems bigger. ✔️ The characteristic of 'masking' inflammation signals Smokers have inflammation In cases where pain and bleeding are minimal There is. Even if it looks fine on the outside, problems can develop internally, so peri-implantitis is often discovered late. ✔️ Increased risk of osseointegration failure Implants are a treatment that must be firmly attached to the bone, but smoking Inhibits bone cell activity itself It is known to do so. As a result, there is a risk that the initial fixation will weaken or lead to shaking over time. So then, how should we set the ‘standard’? 🦷It is crucial to accurately identify the most dangerous times. Let me give you a more realistic standard than “I absolutely must quit smoking for the rest of my life!” The risk periods are the two sections below. 🔸 ① Immediately after surgery ~ 2 weeks The wound begins to heal Early clot formation (think of a clot as the "early stage of scab" that naturally forms over a new wound! It's a must-have.) ➡️ Smoking during this period Risk of early recovery failure This high 🔸 ② 1-3 months after surgery The key steps in which osseointegration actually takes place ➡️ The section where the failure rate increases statistically significantly ⚠️ What if osseointegration is complete? Smoking does not cause implants to fall out or become loose. however Peri-implantitis, gum bone resorption, and shortened prosthesis lifespan The risk is clearly increased That is, the two realistic management standards are: ✔ At least The period for bone fusion is a thorough smoking cessation. ✔ Even after that Regular checkups + hygiene management Is it possible? FAQ Q1. Is it okay to smoke after bone fusion is complete? A1. It does not directly lead to elimination, but Peri-implantitis, bone resorption, and reduced prosthesis lifespan The danger persists. Ultimately, this means that management difficulty increases. Q2. Is 'one or two cigarettes occasionally' a problem? A2. Even a small amount may hinder recovery during the osseointegration stage. It is safe to avoid smoking for at least this period. . Q3. Can inflammation pass without pain? A3. Smokers have higher inflammatory signals. Expressed weakly There are cases where things may look fine on the outside, but problems may be developing internally. conclusion Smoking after implant It is not a question of will, but a “question of timing.” In particular, it is most important to know the following three things: When is it most dangerous? How to get through that period How to adjust your treatment plan based on whether you smoke or not Implants are not a treatment that ends the moment they are placed. A treatment that takes time to complete no see. By accurately understanding your condition and setting realistic standards, you can keep your implants healthy for a long time. If necessary, consult with your medical professional to establish a management plan that suits your situation.

In this article Causes and Management of Recurring Adult Acne second Easy to understand Let me summarize. What is adult acne? ✔ It refers to acne that persists or appears new after the age of 25. . Adult acne is usually After age 25 This refers to cases where acne persists or new acne appears that did not exist before. The areas where it mainly appears are the chin, around the mouth, jawline, and lower cheeks. At first Starting out like a grain of rice And then, More and more inflammatory acne It often progresses like this. 📌 Differences from teenage acne Adult acne More than the amount of sebum secretion itself , Changes in sebum composition skin barrier damage An environment where inflammation persists for a long time This serves as a more important reason. Why does adult acne keep coming back? ✔ There is a reason why it is difficult to prevent relapse with only superficial treatment. . There are several common reasons why adult acne recur. 🔸 Hormonal changes and stress lack of sleep chronic stress Menstrual cycle changes → It stimulates the sebaceous glands and creates an environment that is prone to acne. 🔸 skin barrier damage Frequent extrusion The habit of frequent peeling Excessive cleansing → As the skin's defenses weaken Microinflammation persists It can be done. 🔸 Wrong treatment method Treatment that only quickly reduces visible inflammation It may look good for a while, but Limits in preventing recurrence There is. The question, “Why does it only appear in the same place?” often begins here.

hello, Director Moon Ji-hwan of Rebom Oriental Medicine Hospital no see. When your back is stiff and pain persists, you may start to worry, “Could it be a herniated disc?” , you must have tried it at least once. Herniated disc It feels like a sudden illness, but in reality, The result of accumulated long-term postural habits and alignment breakdown. This is often the case. In particular, the feeling of back pain spreading to the buttocks or legs If this is the case, you should pay more attention. today How lumbar disc herniation begins, why it recurs, and why a structure-centered, nonsurgical approach is important. Let's talk. Read on! Why does a herniated disc occur? 👉 Because the burden on the disc is concentrated due to long-term posture and alignment problems. A herniated disc is a disc that absorbs shock between the vertebrae. A condition in which the nerves are stimulated by being pushed to one side due to the inability to withstand continuous pressure Yes. This pressure does not arise suddenly one day, ✔ Habit of sitting for long periods of time ✔ Working pattern with a bent back ✔ A life of leaning on a deep sofa ✔ Disorientation of pelvic and lumbar alignment These small habits in daily life accumulate over a long period of time and are created. Especially the intervertebral disc The structure is relatively weak at the back, so it is easy to be pushed backwards when repeated postural stress accumulates. This will cause problems. Before you suddenly feel a “twitch!” your back may have been sending signals long ago. It is important to consider the alignment surrounding your lower back rather than just the pain. What symptoms will appear if you have a herniated disc? 👉It doesn't just end with the waist, it can extend to the legs. Back pain isn't everything. When a disc irritates a nerve, pain occurs. ✔ Butt ✔ Thighs ✔ Calf ✔ Up to the feet Radiation tube type It can lead to. Additionally, symptoms may worsen when sitting for long periods of time, bending over, or leaning back excessively, and incorrect stretching may actually worsen the condition. In this case, you definitely need to check If back pain + leg numbness/pulling occurs together You need to check for nerve stimulation. Why do herniated discs recur? 👉Because pain reduction does not mean “alignment has been restored” Just because your symptoms have improved doesn't mean your structure has recovered. If the alignment issue is not resolved, pressure will be concentrated in the same area again, ultimately maintaining the 're-pushing environment'. Originally, the lower back should maintain a gentle C-shaped curve (lumbar lordosis) forward to be stable. When this disc collapses, the load is placed on a specific area of the disc, and the intervertebral disc takes over. So this is a pattern that many people experience. ✔ Get better → let your guard down → get worse again… This is not because the disk is weak, This is often because the lumbar-pelvic-hip axis continues to collapse. Non-surgical Approach: Why Is 'Restoring Spinal Alignment' Important? 👉 An approach that addresses "why the disk was pushed" rather than "the disk was pushed." Spinal alignment restoration surgery does not only look at the lower back, ✔ Waist ✔ Pelvis ✔ Hip joint Evaluating this axis together Focus on correcting broken alignments Leave it. As the alignment returns to its proper position, the pressure concentrated on the disc is relieved, Reduced burden on the nerves A more recovery-friendly environment This is created. The key is not simply to “reduce pain,” Addressing the cause to reduce recurrence are you. FAQ Q1. Do I really need surgery for a herniated disc? A1. Most cases can be recovered without surgery. However, if there are functional changes such as nerve paralysis, muscle weakness, or urinary problems, surgery may be necessary. Q2. Is stretching good for you? A2. Not all stretching is good. Excessive bending or bending of the waist can actually increase pressure, so it is important to proceed according to your individual condition. Q3. If the pain goes away, will it be a complete cure? A3. Pain relief is only part of recovery, and if alignment issues and lifestyle habits are not improved, the possibility of relapse remains. conclusion A herniated disc is not a disease that is simply caused by a single impact. The cumulative result of lifestyle and alignment issues This is often the case. So rather than just temporary pain relief, ✔ Restore balance of the lumbar-pelvic-hip joint structure ✔ Check your lifestyle habits ✔ Sorting-centric approach Doing this together is key to reducing relapse. If the pain is recurring or persists for a long time, check your current alignment and determine the cause of the stress on the disc. “It’s not about pain, it’s about correcting the structure.” It is the most important starting point for returning to a comfortable daily life.

How does oxygen flow through the body change in a hyperbaric environment? ✅ An environment is created in which oxygen spreads beyond the red blood cells and throughout the plasma. In normal breathing, oxygen is mainly red blood cells is transported through. But when it comes to high pressure environments, A state in which the plasma itself can hold more oxygen It changes to . This causes the entire blood to be like Acts like an oxygen reservoir It will be done. ✔️ (Hyperbaric oxygen therapy device) ✨As a result, To damaged tissue or inflamed areas A foundation for faster and deeper oxygen delivery This is created. Cells gain energy to begin recovery, blood circulation becomes much smoother, A flow of calming follows, with the nervous system overly tense.

Can I receive hyperbaric oxygen therapy while taking medication? A1. Most of them can proceed safely, but If you are taking certain anticancer drugs or anticoagulants Pre-consultation is important as individual confirmation may be required. ⚠️ Q2. Can I still receive it even if my ear pressure is weak? A2. Pressure adaptation may be difficult in cases of otitis media or impaired Eustachian tube function. At this time, after prior consultation Determine whether to proceed through pressure control It will be done. Q3. Is it also helpful for people who are very active, like athletes? A3. Muscle recovery and fatigue recovery occur quickly, Post-workout recovery or game preparation Sometimes you may expect help from . conclusion Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is not simply a treatment that supplies more oxygen. So that the body can heal itself The process of reorganizing the environment It's close to . When the oxygen concentration increases ✔️ Inflammation goes down ✔️ Damaged tissue begins to repair itself ✔️ A flow of relaxation of the nervous system may continue. Recovery after procedures and surgeries, brain fatigue, chronic fatigue, recovery after exercise, etc. You can expect help in a variety of situations, but It is impossible to guarantee the same effect for everyone.

김현순 원장25.08.21Views 9108Likes 5 [Health Column] What is Cataract? A comprehensive overview from early symptoms to post-surgery care[11]
Director Choi Woo-hyuk Hello, this is Director Choi Woo-hyuk. Cataracts are a natural eye condition that can occur with aging. However, if you think, "It's normal for my eyesight to worsen as I get older," and ignore it, you may miss the optimal time for treatment. Today, I would like to talk about cataracts. 1. Early symptoms of cataracts, don't just dismiss them as aging When cataracts begin to develop, vision may feel different in bright and dark environments, and eyes may easily become tired when reading books or using smartphones. In particular, vision may temporarily become more blurred after exercise or when dehydrated. If you notice these changes, it could be a sign of cataracts. 2. What is cataract? A condition where the 'lens' inside the eye becomes cloudy. Cataracts are a condition that occurs as the transparent lens called the 'lens' of the eye gradually becomes cloudy. This lens plays a role in focusing so that we can see objects clearly, but as we age, it loses elasticity and gradually becomes foggy. When the lens becomes cloudy, focus is not properly achieved, causing objects to appear blurry, and light scattering can lead to glare. The symptoms of cataracts can vary depending on the location and degree of cloudiness, and sometimes they only impair vision at certain distances or cause objects to appear overlapped. 3. How is cataract surgery performed? Cataract surgery involves removing the cloudy lens and inserting an artificial lens (intraocular lens) in its place. Recently, ultrasound or laser technology has been used to perform the surgery more precisely. In particular, implanting a multifocal intraocular lens allows for clear vision at both near and far distances, increasing convenience in daily life. The artificial lenses used nowadays have a lifespan of over 80 years, and their durability is so high that most patients do not need to replace them after the initial surgery. 4. Postoperative precautions and management determine recovery. Immediately after surgery, your eyes may become sensitive to light or see colors strangely. Especially in cases where multifocal lenses are implanted, lights may appear to spread or night vision may be somewhat blurry. This usually improves gradually over time, so there's no need to worry too much. After surgery, please use eye drops consistently for three weeks and be careful not to rub or vigorously wipe your eyes. Also, during the first week after surgery, be cautious to prevent water from entering your eyes during washing or showering. Even if you wear glasses, you may experience dryness or foreign body sensation, so using artificial tears can also be helpful. 5. Do not misunderstand color changes, blue light, and misconceptions When cataracts develop, some of the light entering the eye, especially blue spectrum light, is blocked. After surgery removes the cloudiness, this blue light can enter again more easily, which may cause colors to suddenly appear bluish or purplish. However, this is part of the normal recovery process, and the optic nerve gradually adapts. Sometimes, there are claims that wearing blue light blocking glasses can help prevent or improve symptoms of cataracts, but this is incorrect information. Blue light is part of natural sunlight, so it cannot be completely blocked, nor is it necessary to do so. 6. Timing of surgery, "finding the right moment," is the key. Cataract surgery is generally performed when vision deterioration causes inconvenience in daily life. If performed too early, the effectiveness of the surgery may be minimal, and if delayed too long, the risk of other complications such as glaucoma or retinal diseases increases. Just like squeezing acne too early or too late can leave scars, it is important to determine the 'appropriate timing' for cataract surgery. It is advisable to check your eye condition through regular ophthalmic examinations and to make a decision after thorough consultation with a specialist. 7. Recovery period and return to daily life, it is important not to overexert yourself. Vision does not immediately return to normal right after surgery. Most patients feel that their vision clears up within about a day after the procedure, but complete recovery takes a little more time. Washing your face is possible about a week after surgery, and normal daily activities can be resumed without difficulty after approximately three weeks. During this period, the use of eye drops and managing eye dryness are very important, and it is also recommended to limit the use of smartphones and computers during the first two weeks. In conclusion Cataracts are a natural aging phenomenon that anyone can experience. However, the quality of life can vary greatly depending on treatment and management. Instead of thinking "it's a bit uncomfortable but I can tolerate it," it is most important to receive appropriate treatment at the right time based on an accurate diagnosis and the advice of a specialist. Since our eyes are precious organs used throughout our lives, do not hesitate to visit an ophthalmologist if you notice any abnormal signs. Small changes can bring great reassurance.
