[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.

이현섭 원장26.03.19Views 233Likes 3 This is a review of the implant treatment process and personal experience!![26]
I will talk about the process of implant treatment and my experience with dental implants~ When getting an implant, have thorough consultations about your concerns and questions, and be sure to carefully choose a reputable implant specialist hospital nearby. Dad started getting implant treatment since last year. When I received my previous implant treatment, I had it done at a nearby dental clinic I frequented, but I wasn't very satisfied, so this time I visited about three specialized implant hospitals to consult about implant treatment. Based on my experience visiting three different dental clinics, although the surgical methods are similar, the costs, expertise, friendliness, and facilities vary, so be sure to compare 2-3 highly recommended clinics before choosing! Since implant treatment is not a one-time procedure like a cavity, but requires significant time, duration, and financial investment, please choose carefully to see the benefits of implant treatment. How does the implant consultation proceed? First, we check the condition of the teeth using X-ray images, intraoral photographs, and other methods. The procedure varies depending on the condition of the teeth before surgery, so it is necessary to carefully check the areas where implants are needed. Whether an implant can be performed depends on the condition of the gums~ And please have the consultation nurse explain the condition of your teeth and provide detailed information on how and what methods will be used for the surgery. Feel free to ask any questions you have at this time. Number of teeth to be operated on, treatment duration, treatment cost, treatment method, implant placement~ It seems that the price can be adjusted when treating multiple implants. Please try to adjust it well~ Let me explain how the implant surgery is performed~ First, apply local anesthesia in the mouth, then make an incision in the gum and detach the soft tissue. And create space by drilling a hole in the tooth below the gum for implant placement~ This is a procedure where, after placing the implant, a cover screw is attached, the soft tissue that has been separated is adjusted, and then sutured. The expected duration for an implant procedure is about 20-30 minutes per implant, and it may vary depending on additional surgeries such as bone grafting or sinus elevation. Initially, when extracting the existing teeth for implant treatment, you need to continuously apply cold compresses on the day of the implant due to swelling and pain. The hospital will prescribe antibiotics and painkillers. Additionally, you should rinse with mouthwash twice a day for a week. Due to bleeding from the extracted tooth, I have been biting on gauze for about 2 hours. Since a lot of blood is coming out of the gauze, I need to change it about 3-4 times. On the day of tooth extraction, the pain is severe, making it hard to speak and sleep well. You should avoid very hot or spicy foods and stick to light foods like porridge on the same day. Getting an implant even once involves extracting the existing tooth, checking the condition of gum inflammation, and the gum regeneration period, making the surgical process really lengthy and costly. There is pain, and initially, implant treatment requires a lot of time and effort. Since implant procedures are lengthy and are used semi-permanently as dental devices, I hope you carefully research and choose so that the implant treatment goes well.
쭈225.02.24Views 257Likes 6 Is implant surgery more complicated than I thought?! Is same-day surgery possible?[15]
I'm looking into the implant surgery process! My grandfather is planning to get an implant, and I'm curious about the implant surgery process! This time, my grandfather said he needed to get 3-4 implants. As I get older, I guess it's inevitable that I'll have to get implants ㅠㅠㅠ Does the implant surgery process take a long time?! When I saw it on the internet before, it said that after implanting it into the bone, you have to wait until the screw is completely attached to the bone. These days, there are a lot of same-day implant placements?! What has changed a lot? I'm planning to get my grandfather's implant at a dental clinic in Cheonan! While looking for a good place near my house, I found Cheonan Woori Family Dental Clinic. The reviews are good, so I'm thinking of doing it here. What do you think?! Or, is there a case where the implant surgery process is the same, but it can be done quickly on the same day? Haha...I don't know much about implant surgery, so it looks incredibly complicated!! If you were a 70-year-old man who needed 3-4 implants, you wouldn't recommend same-day surgery, right?

I have a question about the implant process! (Avid student)[6]
I'm curious about the implant process!! It would be great if those who are familiar with the implant process could share their knowledge. First, let me explain a little bit of what I've found out! The hospital I plan to go to is Snow Dental Clinic. This is a hospital I found through the Cashdoc hospital event. https://cashdoc.me/hospitalevent/eventdetail/4100 I am thinking about getting dental implants at Snow Dental Clinic, located at Exit 8 of Nonhyeon Station. DIO implants cost 490,000 won Osstem implants were 560,000 won! I looked into the implant process; could you please check if this process is correct? 1. Counseling and Diagnosis I heard that you need to receive a consultation and diagnosis first before getting an implant. 2. Surgery Does implant surgery involve extracting a tooth and placing an implant? 3. Bone integration period The period during which an implant fuses well with the gum bone is called the osseointegration period. Generally, osseointegration takes about 6 months for the upper jaw and 3 months for the lower jaw. I heard that it is best to wear a temporary prosthesis and avoid using your teeth during this period! 4. Fabrication and placement of prosthetics Once the osseointegration period has passed, the final prosthesis is fabricated and fitted. I've looked into it like this for now, but are these four processes correct? I've never had implants before, so I'm not exactly sure if this process is correct. Anyway, please help me if you know a lot about the implant process!
불백맘마24.01.04Views 1925Likes 0 Implant preparation process[3]
I need to get implants for my upper molars in the future. For now, I am just filling and sealing them, and I am being careful when using the molars. I'm in the middle of it. I'm still managing to use it somehow, but I think it's not very far off. I'm preparing myself mentally for the implant. These days, I've been looking into various information. I have a few questions. The prices and treatment process are just general information. It seems so. The process I know is that after extraction, if there are no issues with the gums, is it called a support? The basic base device? The instrument? I believe it's planting. I understand that after doing this, implants are inserted after a few weeks to a few months. Is inserting this device painful? Are there any precautions to take after the procedure? When doing an implant, is it just one product or are there options to choose from? I'm wondering if it's possible.
케이스23.07.16Views 75Likes 0 (Concern) Implant process[12]
[if !supportEmptyParas] [endif] I have concerns related to implants. [if !supportEmptyParas] [endif] The lower molar fractured severely without any apparent cause and came loose, so I visited the dentist the next day. After taking an X-ray, they said that four teeth, including the cause tooth, need to be extracted and replaced with implants. It's not even painful, but you see. I thought it wouldn't work, so I went to a somewhat distant place with a decent size and had the same test, and I received similar feedback. However, the idea of treating with implants in one out of four and monitoring the progress was different. [if !supportEmptyParas] [endif] At the place behind the examination room, three teeth were extracted in two separate procedures, and the implant process was explained. Currently, due to weak bone, it is difficult to proceed with the implant, and it was suggested to wait about 3 to 4 months after extraction for the bone to regenerate before proceeding. [if !supportEmptyParas] [endif] There was no discussion about how much it should cost. After extracting three teeth over two weeks, I only received three days of medication each time, and that was it. So, they scheduled a date 6 weeks later and told me to come on that day. That was two weeks ago, and there has been no prescription, action, or contact. I'm a bit worried if this is okay. Are they indifferent? Or is it because they are confident? I'm a bit worried. They also don't tell me about the price range. Should I go and check? There are no symptoms of pain or abnormal signs, but should I just keep it as it is unlike other diseases?

They said I need an implant because the last tooth in the upper left part broke. I have just finished the extraction. Only the implant remains. I think the price is too expensive. Trying to find out here and there I'm curious about the implant procedure as well, and what level of pain to expect. How long will it take? What is the usual price? It would be best to confirm with the hospital for accuracy. Could you please let me know the approximate price for those who want to try?

Usually, I got an implant, but honestly, I lived for several years without molars, and since I managed comfortably without discomfort, I got used to it. Since it's abroad, even the Korean dental clinics available don't seem trustworthy. Maybe briefly Treatment process (from the stage where there is no gum?? bone (is that the correct expression?)) - duration of each stage Time and cost for each process Materials (substances) of implants Is there anyone who can explain? I'm curious because it seems like the price varies a lot depending on the material, but I can't easily do it here abroad because the material seems to be somewhat outdated, like an older material that was used before.

I would like to share the rankings of the dental clinics where I got quotes and consultations for implant surgery. No. 1 Ace Dental Clinic 2nd Place Top Class Dental Clinic 3rd Place Kim O-wan Dental Clinic The reason I chose Jeonju Ace Dental Clinic as number one is that it is a friendly clinic with no overtreatment. The procedure itself is better at Top Class Dental Clinic, which ranks second, but it overwhelmingly can't beat the number one clinic in terms of kindness and comfort. Implant procedures aren't done immediately, and the cost is significant. Anyway, it's the best place I've been to.

[Health Column] You Just Got an Implant and Now You Have to Have It Removed? A Comprehensive Guide from Causes to Prevention ✨[2]
hello! Lee Hyun-seop, Chief Director of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. You made a big decision to get the implant, so you must have felt relieved, thinking, "I'll be able to use this for the rest of my life." Unfortunately, even if it is properly implanted, if care is neglected or unexpected situations arise Implant removal There are times when you have to make a difficult decision. Today, we will look at why situations arise where well-placed implants must be removed, and what our bodies send danger signal I'll pinpoint exactly what it is! 1. What are the warning signs that dental implants send? 🦷 No implant falls out "suddenly." There are always warning signs! If a problem arises with an implant, it is highly likely that our body is already sending small signals. ⚠️ If you experience even one of the symptoms below, do not take it lightly. Changes in the gums Swollen gums or frequent bleeding when brushing teeth uncomfortable pain I feel a strange pain every time I chew food. Shake detection I feel like the implant is slightly loose. Foreign object jamming Food particles have started getting stuck much more than usual. Such changes can lead to the removal of implants childhood This could be the case, so do not ignore it and visit a dentist immediately for a check-up. 2. What are the main causes of implant removal? 🦷 The biggest enemies are 'inflammation' and 'lack of support'. Why do you have to remove implants that were difficult to implant? Here are the four main reasons. Peri-implantitis (Most common cause!): This is a phenomenon where inflammation occurs in the gums and bone surrounding the implant, causing the bone to erode. If left untreated, removal will eventually become inevitable. Lack of bone support : If the amount of gum bone supporting the implant is insufficient or its density decreases, the fixation weakens, and removal must be considered. Initial implant failure : This is a case where the bone and implant did not fuse properly in the early stages due to systemic health issues such as smoking or diabetes, or a lack of proper care. Occlusal problems : If chewing force is unevenly distributed, it can cause continuous damage to the bone surrounding the implant, leading to problems. 3. For implant removal, do I have to have all of them removed? 🦷 Depending on the situation, it may be resolved with 'partial measures'! You don't need to be afraid in advance that you might have to remove the entire thing. The method varies depending on the situation. ✅ Some measures possible : Minor issues, such as problems with the upper prosthesis or loose screws, can be resolved with simple measures. ✅ Total removal required : Surgical removal is necessary if the root (fixture) is damaged or if significant bone resorption has occurred due to severe inflammation. 4. How should I manage my diet safely after surgery? 🦷 🦷 Reducing irritation is the shortcut to a quick recovery! After removal or re-implantation, every single thing you eat is important. 🍴 Day 0: Stopping bleeding Focus on this! 🩸 1~3 days: While managing swelling Very soft liquid food Please eat. 4~7 days: Protein-rich foods like tofu and eggs soft regular food Starts. 1~2 weeks: Gradually Normal meal Go back, but avoid hard foods. FAQ Q1. Can I eat ice cream after implant surgery? ? A1. Yes, it is possible! In fact, cold stimulation can help relieve pain and swelling. 🍦 However, you must not eat too much. Q2. When can I start drinking coffee? ☕ A2. It is recommended to start taking it 2 to 3 days after surgery, and it is best to consume it lukewarm rather than too hot. Q3. Are alcohol and cigarettes really forbidden? 🍺🚬 A3. Yes, At least 1 to 2 weeks You must strictly prohibit this! It is the main culprit that slows recovery and drastically increases the risk of inflammation. 🚭 conclusion The lifespan of an implant is determined by 'attention'. Implant removal is not a misfortune that happens suddenly one day, The result of small problems accumulating no see. The difference between dismissing it with a "It feels a bit strange, but it should be okay?" attitude and thinking "Let's check it out" determines the lifespan of your implant. ✨ We hope you protect your precious implants for a long time through proper lifestyle habits, such as regular checkups, thorough brushing, and quitting smoking. If you feel uncomfortable, do not hesitate.

이현섭 원장26.05.06Views 53Likes 2 This is a question regarding the cost of dental implants.[3]
These days, there are many advertisements from dental clinics stating that implant costs are around 250,000 won. Of course, I only realized after actually undergoing the procedure that bone graft costs are excluded. However, I couldn't understand why it is cheaper without insurance coverage than the 300,000 won cost with insurance, so I inquired with the National Health Insurance Service but did not receive a definitive answer, so I am asking here.

hello! Son Dong-guk, Chief Director of Toktok Plant Dental Clinic It is. 😊 ✏️ At the end of the long journey of implant treatment, once the artificial tooth (prosthesis) is perfectly fitted, There are so many patients who breathe a sigh of relief, saying, "Phew, it's all over now!" but The real success of your implant starts now. Did you know that? So that you can use the implants you spent significant cost and precious time to complete healthily for a lifetime, The lifespan of the prosthesis Core Management Principles I will explain it to you easily and kindly. ✏️ If the prosthesis becomes loose or falls out, does that mean the implant has failed? 👉🏻Don't panic! It can be a natural phenomenon. Implant prostheses are secured by tightening screws or using special adhesive, and the issues that occur when we chew food Tremendous pressure because Over time, the screws may loosen slightly or the adhesive strength may weaken. 👉🏻 Natural phenomenon: This is not so much a surgical defect as something that can occur during chewing. 👉🏻 Simple solution: Simply visiting a dentist to tighten or reattach it is sufficient to resolve the issue. 👉🏻 Neglect is forbidden: If you feel anything unusual, do not hesitate to see a medical professional immediately! ✏️Why is personalized design necessary for dental implants? 👉🏻 This is to prevent bacterial invasion and minimize food particles getting stuck. . Unlike natural teeth, implants lack the 'periodontal ligament' that blocks bacteria, so food is structurally more prone to getting trapped. So, Smart Implant Dental Clinic Tailored to each patient's gum line Personalized abutment Design and fabricate the prosthesis We are doing that for you. 👉🏻 Thorough self-management: The patient's effort is just as important as the customized design! 👉🏻 Oral aids are essential: Using interdental brushes or dental floss is not an option, but a 'necessity'. 👉🏻 Expected effects: This is the surest way to prevent peri-implantitis and use the prosthesis for a lifetime. ✏️ Why is 'balanced chewing' important after attaching prosthetics? 👉🏻 This is because it is essential for the new tooth to settle stably in the oral cavity. After attaching the prosthesis approximately About two weeks to a month The adaptation period This is necessary. At this time, consciously Practice using both sides evenly You must do this. 👉🏻 Dispersion of force: It effectively distributes the vertical pressure applied to the implant fixture. 👉🏻 Ensuring stability: It helps the prosthesis sit in a balanced position without leaning in a specific direction. 🔹 FAQ: We'll answer your questions! Q1. Can I eat immediately after the prosthesis is attached? ? A1. Until the adhesive completely hardens At least 1 to 2 hours Stabilization time is required. Please avoid foods that are too hard or sticky on the first day! Q2. If I hear a clicking sound from the prosthesis, does that mean the implant is broken? ? A2. No! It is highly likely that the sound is coming from a loosened fixing screw. If you come to the dental clinic Firmly again Don't worry, we can tighten it for you. Q3. Do I really need to get regular checkups even if I don't have any pain? ? A3. Yes, you must come! The implant is I have no nerves Even if a problem arises, you cannot feel pain in the early stages. Once every 6 months to a year Getting regular maintenance is the secret to lifelong use. 🔹 Conclusion: It is a 'new beginning,' not the 'end.' The true completion of implant treatment lies not in the moment the prosthesis is placed, but in the process of it becoming fully integrated as a part of the body. ✅ Remember! The end of treatment is the 'beginning of maintenance and management'. Standard management principles and the patient's meticulous habit We must achieve this harmony. Every single detail of your meticulous care determines the lifespan of your implant.

I would like to consult about dental implants. . Thinking that Imtland is none of my concern for the time being, I wasn't interested and just brushed it off, so now that I'm actually trying to get counseling, I don't know anything. I consulted with several dental clinics remotely, and there is only one person receiving treatment. I am worried because the consultation details are so different. Things you need to know before your actual visit and consultation What should I ask to be a dental sucker (?) Wouldn't it be? There are so many brands these days that it's hard to choose, and I don't trust the reviews because they are mostly advertisements.

Sometimes my gums swell when I'm tired. Strangely, the area where I had the implant swells easily. I tend to take pretty good care of the side where I had the implant. I need to use both interdental brushes and dental floss. My gums are swollen, so I can't even use an interdental brush. I've also become extremely careful with dental floss. It hurts, so I'm brushing my teeth gently too. I definitely feel that the area where the implant was done is a bit weak.

I had two molar implants placed in my late 40s, so it has been about 12 years now. However, the implant sites keep getting inflamed and swelling easily. Sometimes, the swelling is so severe that I cannot chew food on that side, causing me to suffer for days. I know I need to visit the dentist for a check-up, but I keep putting it off. So, I would like to know if I need to get new implants and what the lifespan of dental implants is. I would appreciate the advice of anyone who has experienced something similar.

채소걸26.04.25Views 36Likes 0 [Health Column] Why Is a Sinus Lift Necessary? The Reason Why Additional Procedures Are Needed After Going for Implants[1]
hello! Lee Hyun-seop, Chief Director of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. They came for an implant consultation and unexpected Maxillary sinus lift Have you ever been flustered after hearing that? It is natural to worry, asking, "Can't we just plant it?" or "Isn't this overtreatment?" Today, we will look at why this unfamiliar term appears, and Why it is essential for implant success I'll get straight to the point! 📌 1. Maxillary Sinus Lift: What Exactly Is the 'Maxillary Sinus'? 🦷 The maxillary sinus is a space like an 'air sac' inside our upper jaw. location: It is the area just above the upper molars, next to the nose. role: It is a normal structure that lightens the weight of the head and helps with breathing. Problem occurred: When a tooth is lost, the bone thins and decreases in height, causing this maxillary sinus space to descend. 💡 A word from the Director: The bone in the upper molar area is naturally thin, so if a tooth is lost, there is quickly insufficient space to place an implant. 2. What kind of surgery is a maxillary sinus lift? 🦷 It is the process of lifting the descended maxillary sinus membrane to create 'soil' for the implant to be placed in. . principle : To secure the reduced bone height, the maxillary sinus membrane is slightly lifted. method : Bone graft material is filled into that empty space to allow the implant to be firmly fixed. 3. Why is this procedure absolutely necessary? 🦷 This is because proceeding forcefully when there is insufficient bone can lead to implant failure. . Decreased stability : The screw may loosen or wobble due to insufficient fixing force. serious side effects : Failure of osseointegration can cause the implant to fall out, or in the worst case, the implant may fall into the maxillary sinus. Risk factors : In this case, the risk of inflammation and infection increases, making treatment much more difficult. 4. What are the risks of surgery pain or precautions? 🦷 The surgery is performed under light anesthesia, so there is almost no pain during the procedure; please do not worry too much! Pain level : There may be swelling or a feeling of pressure for about 2 to 3 days after surgery, but it is not significantly different from a standard procedure. ⚠️ Essential Precautions : The maxillary sinus is connected to the nose, so proper care is really important! Do not blow your nose hard (Open your mouth when sneezing!) Avoid smoking and drinking, and avoid strenuous exercise. 5. Why do cost differences occur? 🦷 This is because the condition of the bone and the difficulty of the procedure vary from patient to patient. Determinants : It depends on the amount of remaining bone, the type of graft material, the complexity of the surgery, etc. Important point : It is much more economical to prevent re-operation or failure than to pay the immediate cost. FAQ Q1. Is a maxillary sinus lift absolutely necessary for everyone? ? A1. No. It is not necessary if there is sufficient bone in the upper molars, but it is essential if the bone is too thin and there is a risk that the implant will be exposed. Q2. Is it possible to have a nosebleed after surgery? ? A2. Since the area connected to the nose is treated, you may experience a runny nose mixed with a little blood for a few days, but if you do not blow your nose forcefully and follow the instructions carefully, you will recover steadily. conclusion A solid foundation for successful implants Implants are not simply about implanting teeth, Treatment that builds a foundation for long-term use no see. Maxillary sinus lift surgery is not a means to increase costs, but rather helps maintain your precious implants without problems in the long term. safety device no see. Make sure to consult thoroughly with medical professionals to accurately check the condition of your bones! 👨⚕️🩺 Seoul Centum Dental Clinic Chief Director Lee Hyun-seop Specialist in Integrated Dentistry Graduated from Korea University Master of Dentistry, Kyung Hee University College of Dentistry Regular member of the Korean Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Implantology Regular member of the Korean Endodontic Society Regular member of the Korean Academy of Integrated Dentistry Member of the American Academy of Aesthetic Dentistry (AACD) Member of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry (AAID) Full member of the International Congress of Implantologists (ICOI) Experience in placing over 17,000 implants Possesses extensive overseas experience visiting over 10 countries Experience with numerous complex implant cases Read other health columns by Director Lee Hyun-seop > [Health Column] Why Are Impacted Wisdom Teeth a Problem?

However, proceeding with almost no teeth Full implant Since the physical and financial burden is significant, a more precise plan is required. ✏️ Why is precise diagnosis so important for full body implants? ? As this is a highly complex surgery involving the implantation of 15 to 20 implants in the upper and lower jaws, meticulous planning is essential. Full dental implants are a major surgery that goes beyond simply implanting a few teeth to reconstructing the entire oral cavity. Because the scope of the surgery is wide Implant location perfectly suited to the individual's oral structure and gum condition Deciding on that is the key. Director's Tip! To restore chewing power similar to natural teeth and use them comfortably for a long time, the first step, the 'diagnosis,' must be accurate. ✏️ If you forcefully save a bad tooth, it can actually be harmful. ? 👉🏻Insisting on using teeth that are in poor condition can lead to the need for implant revision surgery, so caution is required. Many people say, "I want to save even one more of my teeth," but if you forcibly leave behind a tooth with severe inflammation... Inflammation can spread to the newly implanted implant.

The implant procedure proceeds in the order of implanting a fixture into the gum bone, connecting an abutment, and then placing a prosthesis. The most important thing at this time is The fixation of the body firmly into the bone It is. If there is a bone deficiency, a bone graft must be performed to ensure long-term stability. • Materials used We tailored to each patient's gum line Custom abutment Reduced worry about fracture strong Zirconia prostheses We are increasing durability by using 🔹 FAQ: We'll answer your questions! Q1. How long does the entire implant treatment usually take? A1. There are individual differences, but usually 3 to 6 months It takes about that long. The three months required for the fixture to firmly bond with the gum bone (osseointegration) is a necessary period of patience. You must go through this process properly to use it healthily for a lifetime. Q2. Is it absolutely necessary to have an incision and bone graft? A2. If there is sufficient bone, a non-incisional procedure is possible, but, Most of them are for the lifespan of the implant Sufficient bone graft This is necessary do. To create a sturdy foundation, the necessary areas must be properly incised and the bone meticulously filled in. Q3. How long does an implant last? A3. If you plant it properly according to the principles and the patient manages it meticulously semi-permanent use This is possible. If standard treatment and aftercare based on 190,000 data points are combined, it can easily last for decades. 🔹 Conclusion: A choice that changes your quality of life A choice that changes your quality of life Implants are not simply tools for chewing food, The process of rebuilding your quality of life no see.

I visited Ace Dental Clinic in Jeonju after fracturing a tooth while eating.

I heard I needed implants, so I dragged it out for half a year.... I'm just so scared of the dentist itself. 😭😭 I went there really scared, but the staff comforted me so well, and I was really grateful❤️... I felt somewhat reassured because the director kept letting me know what stage I was at from time to time. I think the surgery took about forty minutes. I recovered quickly after it was over, and now I feel so, so good. I think I'm even more satisfied because the Plan Dental Clinic I went to was in the 300,000 won range.
스리슬쩍26.04.13Views 81Likes 0 Introducing the treatment process for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), which causes sudden dizziness.[1]
One day, when I lay down and turned my head to the left, the sky spun around really fast for 10 seconds and then stopped. I visited the ENT clinic, was diagnosed with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), and received treatment. I was fine that day, but when I got home, it kept happening, so I received treatment for vertigo again and was prescribed medication. hello? Introducing the treatment process for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a condition where the body's sense of balance is disrupted as otoliths, which are stones located inside the ear, become displaced from their proper position. In my case, when I lie down and turn my head to the left, the sky spins really hard for 10 seconds and then stops. I had a feeling because I've had vertigo before. I went to the ENT clinic right away, and they told me it was benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). So I received treatment for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo right away. First, he told me to wear glasses that block my vision. Next, he told me to relax my head and neck. The doctor grabbed my head, turned it to the sides, and then stood it up. And they told me to lie down, turn my head the other way, and stand up, so I did that a few times. They told me to wait and see, and if it doesn't get better, to come back in tomorrow. I was definitely fine that day, but the symptoms continued the next day as well. So I visited the clinic again two days later. I received treatment for vertigo again, and this time I was prescribed medication as well. They say it is a medicine that helps reduce dizziness. So I took medication for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo and tried going about my daily life, but the symptoms still didn't go away. So, I reviewed the process of the vertigo treatment I received at the hospital. I did the movements the doctor told me to do. I did the exercises together for a day or two, and perhaps because the otoliths found their proper place during that process, I gradually felt better. Even when I lay on my left side like before, the sky didn't spin around. Therefore, since the treatment for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) ultimately ends only when the otoliths return to their proper place, please continue to make an effort until they are returned.
아하26.04.12Views 62Likes 0 Gangnam Station Dermatology Juvelook Volume | Nasolabial Fold Removal Review: Treatment Process for Indian Fold Concerns[1]
Lately, whenever I look in the mirror, I feel like my nasolabial folds look deeper, so it's been bothering me. I searched online and found quite a few reviews about nasolabial fold removal at dermatology clinics near Gangnam Station. While looking through them one by one, I saw that Indian wrinkles could also be improved, so I decided to get a consultation. My experience visiting the Gangnam Station dermatology clinic It was near Gangnam Station, so the accessibility was good, and the interior was quieter than I expected. It was comfortable not having to wait a long time while feeling nervous, as there was almost no waiting time. The washing area and waiting area were also neatly organized, so there was an overall sense of stability. Nasolabial fold removal consultation process During the consultation, they explained that we need to consider the overall volume of the face as well, not just filling in wrinkles. I understood when I heard that the procedure is carried out to balance the skin by checking not only nasolabial folds but also Indian wrinkles and under-eye hollowness. Design and explanation before the procedure Before we started in earnest, they set guidelines on my face, and it felt like they were designing it with consideration for how it wouldn't look awkward even when I smiled. Looking at reviews for nasolabial fold removal, I've seen cases where the lines were excessively indented, so it seemed like a process to adjust for that. Nasolabial fold treatment in progress After the anesthetic cream, the injection is administered, and personally, I felt the most irritation at this stage. The Juvelook volume injection went faster than I expected, and since I was able to listen to the explanations while it was being done, I wasn't very nervous. Condition immediately after the procedure There was some swelling and bruising immediately after, but it wasn't severe. Even after the anesthesia wore off, there was no significant pain remaining, and it did not interfere much with daily life. Progress (Day 1 ~ Day 5) On the first day, the swelling and bruising looked a bit more prominent, but after about 4 to 5 days, it felt like they were gradually filling in naturally. (Day 1) I could see that the nasolabial fold on one side, which I was particularly concerned about, had eased a little. Since collagen boosters are known to show gradual changes over time rather than immediate results, I felt I needed to wait and see how things changed after 2 to 4 weeks. (Day 5) Thoughts Overall, I felt that the shadows of the nasolabial folds were less visible, and I sensed a change where the overall impression looked slightly less heavy. Since it is still early, I think we need to observe the changes further over time. with Cash Review

After recently getting dental implants, I have been experiencing persistent discomfort because the bite between my upper and lower teeth feels a bit too high. It bothered me that specific areas felt like they were touching first whenever I ate, so I visited a dental clinic for a consultation. I felt confident because they thoroughly checked my bite and accurately identified the areas making contact first using a checklist. The treatment proceeded by finely adjusting the occlusion of the implant prosthesis. They trimmed the parts that were touching too high very slightly while having me bite down multiple times, and meticulously adjusted it until it interlocked naturally. I felt reassured because they continuously checked to make sure I wasn't experiencing any discomfort, and after the treatment, the feeling of my teeth leaning to one side disappeared, and I could feel myself chewing evenly overall.

hello! Lee Hyun-seop, Chief Director of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. While eating a meal as usual, suddenly the implant It feels like it just popped out. Whenever a tooth comes in or I chew A 'rattling' unfamiliar feeling Have you ever felt it? Especially since this situation happened to cause the hospital to close. weekends or late nights You would be very flustered if it happened. 😰 "Is this completely broken?", "Should I go to the emergency room right away?" For those who are concerned, ✨ today Actions You Must Never Do When an Implant Screw Loosens and the Correct Ways to Respond to Them for Each Situation We will summarize it for you in an easy-to-understand way! 1. Why do implant screws suddenly become loose? ? 🦷 This is because the 'screw' securing the prosthesis has loosened due to various causes. Implants are not simply a single unit, but are embedded within the gum bone Artificial root (fixture) , column (abutment) , and visible Prosthetics (crowns) It consists of the structure of What binds them tightly is the 'screw' is. 🔩 📌 The screw may come loose for these reasons! Chewing pressure: When excessive chewing force is concentrated on only one side Oral habits: The habit of grinding or clenching one's teeth unconsciously Wear and tear and aging: If the screw itself is worn out due to long-term use Initial fixation force: Rarely, when initial bonding strength was slightly insufficient or bone fusion was unstable 2. If an implant screw comes loose, do I absolutely have to have it re-implanted? ? 🦷 Don't worry! As long as the root (fixture) is intact, simply tightening the screws again will solve the problem. Many people ask, "If it loosens, doesn't that mean the implant is ruined?" but fortunately... Re-implantation is not always necessary. ✅ The situation is broadly divided into two types. In the case where only the screw is loose : The fixture is firmly attached to the bone and Only the prosthesis placed on top is loose It is. At the dental clinic It can be easily solved by simply tightening it again. It works! ✨ Problems with the entire structure : If acting as a root If the fixture itself is shaking Additional treatment or re-implantation may be necessary. Therefore, shaking is felt Early response Doing so is the smartest way to reduce the scope of treatment. 3. What should you absolutely never do when an implant is loose? ? 🦷 Attempting to fix it could actually completely ruin the implant. ⚠️ This is absolutely forbidden! Direct screw tightening: If you use tools or screwdrivers found at home screw threads The ('wavy grooves etched into the screw') may be damaged, rendering it completely unusable. ❌ Use super glue: This is a surprisingly common mistake! If you apply adhesive, the prosthesis will become impossible to remove later. You might have to smash even your perfectly good prosthetics and make new ones. 😱 Continue eating as is: If you continue to chew while it is rattling, the internal structures may wear down, or in the worst case, even the fixture inside the bone may be damaged. 4. I can't go to the dentist because it's the weekend. What should I do right now? ? 🦷 Don't panic, just remember two things: 'protection' and 'storage'. If you are unable to visit the hospital immediately, please make sure to follow the steps below by Monday morning. Stop using the affected area : Minimize chewing, and absolutely Eating only on the opposite side Do it. 🍽️ Consume soft foods : It is recommended to focus on liquid foods that require minimal chewing, such as porridge, soup, and tofu. Keep the missing prosthesis clean. : If the crown has completely fallen out, please keep it safe so you don't lose it and be sure to bring it with you when you visit! 📥 Quick booking : You need to find a dental clinic that is open on weekends, or schedule an appointment as soon as Monday arrives. 5. What problems arise if a loose implant screw is left untreated? ? 🦷 What could have been prevented with a hoe might end up requiring a shovel. That is why regular inspections are essential! If you ignore the slight shaking and keep using it, you will eventually pay a heavy price. 😢 Damaged parts : The screw may wear out or the connecting post (abutment) may break. Bone resorption progress : A loose prosthesis can cause continuous irritation to the gums, leading to the surrounding bone dissolving. Risk of re-surgery : In the end, it was a problem that could be solved simply by tightening. Major surgery to extract and re-implant implants It may lead to. 🔸 ✨ Preventive measures for long-lasting durability! Maintain cleanliness around the teeth with dental floss and interdental brushes 🪥 Check the screw tightening status every time through regular checkups If you grind your teeth, wear a splint. FAQ Q1. I tried putting the fallen prosthesis back in, and it fits perfectly. Can I just use it as is? ? A1. No! Even if it appears to fit on the outside, food particles can enter through tiny gaps and cause inflammation, or it may slip out quickly due to being unable to withstand chewing forces, potentially damaging the inside. ⚠️ It must be fixed at a dental clinic using specialized tools. Q2. Are there people whose implant screws frequently come loose? ? A2. Those who chew very hard or enjoy tough foods, or those who have a habit of grinding their teeth severely while sleeping, may experience screws loosening relatively more frequently. In this case, it is recommended to shorten the interval between regular checkups. conclusion Loose implant screws are an 🚨'emergency signal' sent by our body. It might be disconcerting because it appeared suddenly, but in most cases, it is a phenomenon that develops as small abnormalities accumulate. Don't panic even if it happens on the weekend! The most important thing is Seek a specialist quickly after stopping use, without touching it directly. no see. Implants are just as important as they are to be implanted properly.

A doctor who effortlessly handles even difficult implant procedures and possesses a strong sense of duty as a physician. I had neglected a single tooth that was painful and had become severely damaged, so I visited several local clinics, but the only response I received was that the surgery would be too complex and I needed to go to a university hospital. Since university hospital implants cost more than three times the price of a regular dental clinic, I was at a loss when I found my doctor. After examining my condition, the doctor kindly agreed to perform the surgery willingly, even though it was clearly difficult. Furthermore, he is a truly skilled doctor who did not charge me extra for the procedure and showed consideration for me traveling from afar. Thank you, doctor, for treating that notoriously difficult treatment effortlessly and perfectly.

However, in the past, such concepts were less common, so people tended to be careless and less conscious about it. On top of that, perhaps due to a family genetic predisposition for weak gums, my gums and teeth have been in poor condition for generations. Consequently, I suffered from dental problems for a long time. Then, in 2011, I discovered Yemidam Dental Clinic and received extensive treatment and implants from Director Lee Jung-hyuk. Since then, following the doctor's instructions for care and check-ups, I have been using my teeth comfortably and in good health.

I would like to share the treatment process for carpal tunnel syndrome.[1]
I was sleeping for two days when suddenly my wrist and fingers tingling symptoms It was so severe that I had trouble sleeping. After looking it up, it appears to be carpal tunnel syndrome. I am sharing my self-treatment process for carpal tunnel syndrome. 1. What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome? Inside the wrist, there is a passageway called the carpal tunnel. Nerves and tendons pass through this. Due to various causes, this Pain and numbness occur as the nerve is compressed do. 2. What are the causes of carpal tunnel syndrome? The most common cause is repetitive overuse of the wrist. It occurs when you repeatedly use your wrist extensively for long periods, such as using a smartphone, a computer mouse, or doing housework. 3. What are the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome? In the early stages, symptoms include tingling in the fingertips, numbness extending to the thumb and middle finger, and stiffness in the hand. As the condition progresses to the middle stage, nighttime pain intensifies and numbness spreads to the arm; as it worsens, sensation decreases, making it difficult to grasp objects. Treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome is absolutely necessary in severe stages. 4. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Self-Test? For the Phalen test, place the backs of your hands together and bend your wrists 90 degrees. If you experience numbness after holding for one minute, you may suspect carpal tunnel syndrome. 5. What are my symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome? I experienced tingling from my thumb to my index and middle fingers, and the tingling in my wrists and fingertips worsened during sleep. Additionally, a Phalen test confirmed the numbness, so I suspected carpal tunnel syndrome and began self-treatment. 6. Treatment for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome? 🚨First. Above all, stretching was the most important thing. Stretch once every hour I started treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome. Extend your arm forward with your palm facing upward, then pull your fingers with your opposite hand. Perform this stretching exercise for 15 seconds for 3 sets every hour. 🚨Second. I purchased a new wrist brace to treat carpal tunnel syndrome. I used to only use a wrist brace, but by applying more concentrated compression to the wrist... I purchased a new brace suitable for protecting the carpal tunnel and reducing compression on the wrist and surrounding joints and ligaments. So I started wearing it. 🚨Third. I treated carpal tunnel syndrome by applying a warm compress before going to bed. Massage the stiff wrist area with a warm compress The pain and numbness are decreasing now that you do this. After starting stretching, wearing a wrist brace, and applying warm compresses, the tingling sensation improved significantly within two days, and I began to sleep soundly. If you continue to experience tingling pain despite treating carpal tunnel syndrome on your own, be sure to visit a hospital to receive professional treatment.

I finally got the implants I've been putting off since last year. I had two lower molars implanted at once. I was most nervous before the surgery.

It’s a place recommended by an acquaintance, so I plan to treat them to a meal soon. I saved a lot of money, too.
가느다라미26.04.06Views 51Likes 1 Review of molar implant at Suwon King Kong Dental Clinic, experience of a part falling off
I had a molar implant done 5 years ago, but the middle part broke off. I neglected it for a long time before visiting the clinic, but... I was told that other parts were more problematic. Still, they only treated the part I was originally scheduled to have treated. When I asked why it fell off, they told me to think of it as a component, implying that it could fall off frequently... It was shocking. They also told me that if it falls off again, I should visit a nearby clinic for treatment even if I can't come to theirs. However, other clinics charge 50,000 to 80,000 won, while this clinic charges only 15,000 won... I absolutely could not understand if that was even a reasonable price. Then, a person claiming to be the director came in, only checked the condition of my tooth, asked me to check other areas besides the one I wanted treated, and then disappeared. Someone else treated me. I received treatment without even knowing exactly who that person was—whether they were a doctor, a nurse, or someone else... If it weren't for this implant, I would never want to go to this clinic again.

Review of the implant consultation for the public good (feat. My Dad) 👀
My dad's lower molars are in really bad condition 😢 I'm old and have high blood pressure, so I'm very worried and have visited about five dental clinics. The last dental clinic I visited was Pran Dental Clinic, and since they specialize exclusively in implants, I have high expectations. First of all, the price was twice as cheap as other dental clinics, but that didn't mean the quality was poor! My dad liked that part the most, and the director seemed really skilled👍.... After visiting several places, I realized that price isn't everything... It seems that just because something is expensive doesn't automatically mean it's good. Make sure you find a good place that is large, friendly, and has experience with implants!!

The sofas in the hospital lounge are incredibly comfortable, and the waiting area is well-equipped. Recently, with the proliferation of illegal, low-cost implant clinics, I also suffered from revision surgery, and I learned there are even clinics that run away with the money. So, after doing extensive research, I had my implant surgery at Chamjoeun Dental Clinic. First of all, the medical staff are outstanding in terms of skill. They certified me before the surgery, and I had the operation performed by the director. I thought the anesthesia was finally over, but a nurse told me the surgery was finished. I am grateful for the minimal pain and bleeding, and for successfully operating on my high-difficulty case. I highly recommend Chamjoeun Dental Clinic; it is busy with patients because of their excellent skills.👍 The dentist who performed the scaling was also very thorough, and since I went with my family, they were happy that the surgery seemed to finish so quickly.

I needed to get dental implants, so I looked around a lot. Besides, since it's near my front teeth and highly visible... I looked into it quite thoroughly. I went to Plan Dental Clinic, which specializes in implants, right near Bupyeong Market Station. First of all, the consultation manager was very kind and provided excellent consultation. Unlike other places, the prices here were quite cheap. I was worried that you might get what you pay for, but then I saw the director's credentials and was really intimidated. The hospital is quite large and seems to have been seeing patients for a long time, so I came here to schedule my surgery. I chose the right dentist, right?

못난마름모26.04.01Views 68Likes 0 [Health Column] If You Feel Implant Movement or Wobbling? Why You Shouldn't Just Leave It Alone[8]
hello! Lee Hyun-seop, Chief Director of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. Even those who have been using their implants comfortably for a long time may one day suddenly get the feeling, "Huh? It feels like something is moving slightly..." It looks fine on the outside and there is little pain, so it is easy to dismiss it as insignificant, but this is a very important signal from our body. Today, I will explain in an easy-to-understand way why this phenomenon occurs and why you should absolutely never leave it untreated. ✨ 1. Can implant movement be normal? To start with the conclusion, a normal implant never moves. Our natural teeth have a cushioning tissue called the 'periodontal ligament' that allows for slight movement, but implants are structured to be firmly fixed directly to the jawbone. Therefore, if you feel even the slightest shaking or movement, it is a definite sign that there is a problem somewhere, so you must identify the cause. 2. What are the main causes of dental implants becoming loose? From gum inflammation to loose screws, the causes are more diverse than you might think. 1️⃣ Peri-implantitis (most common cause) ⚠️ If inflammation occurs in the surrounding area, the gums and bone are damaged, weakening the fixation. Since implants lack nerves, pain appears late; therefore, if you feel movement even without swelling, it is highly likely that the condition is already progressing. 2️⃣ Loose screws (surprisingly common) 🔩 An implant consists of a root (fixture), a connection (abutment), and a prosthesis (crown). If this internal screw loosens, only the upper prosthesis can wobble even if the root is intact. While it can often be easily resolved by retightening, please be careful as leaving it unattended can damage the structure! 3️⃣ Bone fusion problems 🦷 This is a case where 'osseointegration,' the process of the implant firmly bonding with the bone, did not occur properly. It can be affected if you have low bone density or systemic diseases such as diabetes or osteoporosis. 4️⃣ Excessive force (teeth grinding, chewing habits) 💪 Implants do not have the function of absorbing shock. If habits such as clenching your teeth or enjoying hard foods are repeated, microscopic damage accumulates and eventually causes them to become loose. 3. What happens if I just leave slight shaking alone? ? 🦷 Ignoring small vibrations is the most dangerous choice. . 📌 Progression stages if left untreated Slight shaking occurs The surrounding bone is gradually absorbed The fixation force weakened rapidly. at last Implant failure and need for re-implantation 😱 The very moment you feel, "It seems to be wavering a little," is actually the golden time for treatment. 4. In what cases should I go to the dentist without delay? ? 🦷 Even if you do not experience pain, you need to get a check-up immediately if you have any of the following symptoms. . ✔️ When you feel a wobbly sensation while chewing food ✔️ When the implant moves when force is applied in a specific direction ✔️ When you feel like food keeps getting stuck between your implants ✔️ When your gums frequently swell or feel uncomfortable 5. Can you check or resolve this yourself? ? 🦷Absolutely forbidden! Touching or pressing with your hands will worsen the condition. Forcing yourself to click on information found on the internet is really dangerous. Since treatment methods vary completely depending on the cause, an accurate diagnosis by a specialist is essential. [ Examples of Treatment Methods by Cause ] ✔️Screw problem ➡️ Simple stock fixing ✔️Inflammation problem ➡️ gum treatment ✔️Structural problem ➡️ Prosthetic replacement ✔️Root problem ➡️ implant re-implantation 6. Preventive measures to ensure implants last a long time ? 🦷 You can maintain stability for a long time with just proper basic maintenance. ✨ . ✅ Regular dental checkups are essential! ✅ Maintain cleanliness around the teeth with dental floss and interdental brushes ✅ Controlling smoking and drinking ✅ If you grind your teeth, wear a protective device. ✅ Avoid hard and chewy foods FAQ Q1. My implant is loose, but it doesn't hurt. I don't need to go in a hurry, right? ? A1. No! Since implants do not have nerves, there are many cases where there is no pain even if the bone erodes. Even if you do not feel pain, if you can feel movement, it means the problem has already started, so you should get a checkup as soon as possible. Q2. If the screw is loose, can't I fix it at home? ? A2. Absolutely not. The inside of the implant has a precise structure, so touching it without specialized instruments can damage the internal structure. If you visit a dental clinic, it can be easily re-tightened, so please leave it to the experts. conclusion Implant movement is a 'warning signal' from our body.

I came to pick up medication for high blood pressure, thyroid, and calcium. My attending physician, Director No Im-hwan, had many appointments, so I saw another doctor just to get a prescription. My blood pressure was 112/72/65, which is very normal, but due to a family history, the doctor prescribed a three-month supply of blood pressure medication, even though it was the smallest dose available. Regarding thyroid medication, I originally underwent surgery and five rounds of radiation therapy at Samsung Medical Center in 2004. However, after 22 years, my test results became stable, so I transferred to MD Green, where I currently receive treatment. I brought a copy of my 22-year medical chart to MD Green for my consultations. On my first visit, the doctor simply determined that I had undergone a thyroidectomy and prescribed only Synthyroxine, so I was not prescribed calcium medication. However, when I went back later and explained that calcium was not being produced due to a mistake during the parathyroid surgery, causing numbness and paralysis in my hands and feet immediately after the operation, I was required to receive a calcium prescription; they then prescribed it for me. I am grateful that the new doctor today also mentioned that the records were well-organized and that they had prescribed a three-month supply.

I'm thinking about getting dental implants.[5]
I need to get dental implants, but I'm having trouble deciding which hospital to go to in Ilsan. I've looked around, but I'm not sure where to go, so it's a bit tricky. I would appreciate it if those who know could let me know.

People around me said Plan Dental Clinic was good, so I took my mother there for a consultation. I was very worried because my mother is quite old. The director explained things slowly and at my mother's level, so as her son, I felt relieved. Since you are looking at the test results together and explaining exactly where and how things are problematic, it is easy to understand even for someone like me who doesn't know much about implants. They carefully checked my blood pressure medication as well, and I can really feel that the director provides treatment with utmost sincerity. My mother says she's glad we came, too.
진실의미간26.03.31Views 61Likes 0 What criteria should I use to choose an implant dental clinic?[3]
One of my molars became loose and I was told it eventually has to be extracted, so I am looking into dental implants. I searched online and found that there are various materials available and bone grafting might be necessary. Prices also vary widely from hospital to hospital, so it’s hard to know what criteria to use when choosing. Since it's my first time, I'm worried about getting overtreated. For those of you in the Bupyeong area who got implants, where did you have them done? I would like to at least get a consultation first, and I would like a dental clinic that gives honest advice.
수화기너머26.03.30Views 91Likes 2 I'm planning to get my mom dental implants.[2]
My mom needs two upper molars, but I'm worried because of her age. I visited a few dental clinics, but the prices and explanations were all different, so I didn't know which one to trust. One place says I need a bone graft, while another says I don't... For those in Ilsan who had their parents' implants done, please let me know which dental clinic you went to.
핀잔26.03.30Views 63Likes 1 I need to get dental implants.[2]
My lower right molar was aching, and I heard it eventually cracked. I had an X-ray taken and they said it's hard to save the baby and I need an implant. Honestly, hearing that all of a sudden makes me worried. The local dentist suggested doing it right away, but I'm a bit uneasy about getting implants just anywhere. For those of you in Ilsan who got dental implants, where did you have them done? I heard that if my bone condition is good, I can do it right away, but I want to go to a place that does a good job.
그믐달26.03.30Views 88Likes 0 I lost a molar, so I'm getting an implant.[2]
I left a missing molar untreated, and now I think I really need to get an implant. For those who did this in Busan, please share your information~ There are so many dental clinics and the prices vary so much, I don't know where to go.
악기소리26.03.30Views 70Likes 1 My implants are finished, is this normal?[1]
It was my first dental implant ever, and the surgery felt like it took less than 30 minutes. Maybe because of the anesthesia, it didn't hurt much, and I didn't have to eat porridge for that long. Now that the stitches are out, the swelling has completely gone down, so it looks so normal... I'm just curious for no reason... lol I've gotten so much better now that I can even eat chicken. I'd say the implant was a success at this point, right? For reference, I had the procedure done at Plan Dental Clinic. If anyone else had it done there, I’d love to hear a review!
