Visit verification complete #Implant: 280,000 KRW per unit / Total: 2,800,000 KRW A friend informed me about the event, so I made a reservation and visited. I had sleep sedation for my implants. I had dental anxiety, and it was difficult to receive treatment, but with sleep sedation, I felt almost no pain. I underwent a maxillary sinus lift and had a total of 7 implants, including bone grafting. From the doctor to the consultants and front desk staff, everyone was kind and the treatment was done very well without any pain. If you are worried about getting implants, I recommend this place^^

Visit verification complete #Precautions for Factory-type Dental Implants This is my husband's implant treatment. Three implants and one crown to be placed. Bone grafting is also necessary, and we need to perform a sinus lift. It's a major procedure. We have visited three places just for the estimate and decided on this one. So far, I am pleased with the choice. I hope the treatment goes well. I think we will settle with this dental clinic.^^

Visit verification complete #Implant: 280,000 KRW per unit / Total: 2,800,000 KRW I was looking for a hospital to get an implant after losing a molar, and I had a consultation at a temporary implant clinic through a cash event, where I got bone grafting and the implant fixture done right away. I thought it would be a non-incisional procedure, but after the consultation, I ended up having to go with an incision. The implant was suggested at an event price, but it was an unknown brand, so I was recommended the Osstem brand, which is more expensive, but I decided to go with it. Thankfully, I didn’t feel much pain after the anesthesia, and the staff were very kind in explaining everything to me. I’m going back in two weeks to have the stitches removed.

View moreJeongplant bone graft implant is less painful than I expected.[14]
Since it was my first time receiving this treatment, my biggest concerns before the implant surgery were as follows: 1) Pain and Anesthesia How painful is the anesthesia? What if the anesthesia wears off during the surgery? Will it hurt when the bone graft material is inserted? 2) Bone graft implant failure What if it fails because it doesn't fuse well with my bone... 3) Swelling and daily life What if my face swells up severely or bruises after the surgery? Will it swell enough that I have to take time off work? Do I need to adjust the schedule? I was lying in the operating room after having my face and mouth disinfected, and I can't forget the tension. That was the moment my heart beat the fastest!! Once I actually got the anesthesia, the only scary things during the surgery were the sound of the machines and the faint vibrations in my head; since I had absolutely no sensation, it actually felt anticlimactic. Am I... scared???!!! lol The surgery went well without any complications, unlike I expected. I had an X-ray taken, listened to the instructions, and came home. Since I applied ice packs properly and took painkillers on time, the pain was definitely much less than I had feared. That is a really great tip. I was careful not to touch the bone graft site as much as possible because irritating it can interfere with the grafted bone, and I also avoided using straws. If you worry a lot like me, Please make a decision after thoroughly researching and comparing clinical experience and hospital cases. It will definitely be helpful!
폭스26.06.09Views 115Likes 1 If you neglect tooth loss, you'll end up needing the full course of bone grafts and implants lol
I lost a molar, but honestly, it's not even noticeable, and I'm of the opinion that it doesn't matter if I eat on the other side. If there is anyone living with this neglected for N years.......it's definitely time for a bone graft and implants....lol I had bone graft and implant surgery at Pyeongchang like that. Ultimately, it finished well, and now I eat well and live well, but...? I think it would have been much easier to get it over with if I hadn't put it off and just rushed to the dentist. I'm doing well now, but that's the only thing I find a bit lacking hahaha
못난마름모26.04.01Views 102Likes 0 I've been told I need a bone graft. Are there any places in Bupyeong, Incheon that offer dental implants?[1]
I went to the dentist, and they told me I don't have enough bone and need a bone graft to get implants. When I look for a hospital, the thing I check the most is whether the doctor is a specialist, lol. I heard that the head director of Plan Dental Clinic is a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon. If anyone has experience with bone grafting, I am curious to know what your experience was like. I would also like to know if it hurts and how long the recovery period takes.

이현섭 원장26.01.02Views 525Likes 5 [Health Column] Is Bone Grafting Really Necessary for Implants? Key Points to Consider Before Surgery[7]
hello, Smile Dental Clinic of Director Oh Su-hwan no see. At the dentist Implant consultation The most nerve-wracking moment when receiving it is “I need a bone graft.” Isn't it when you hear that? Costs are rising, and concerns are growing about whether treatment is truly necessary. In particular, you may have had the experience of being confused because the language was slightly different at each hospital. But rather than worrying Accurate understanding comes first. Today, we'll explain what implant 'bone grafting' is, whether it's really necessary for everyone, and even give you some tips for making a wise decision. 1. What exactly does implant bone grafting mean? ✨Bone grafting is not a process of ‘filling in bone’, but rather a process of creating space for new bone to grow. Many people think of bones as hard and unchanging tissues like stone, but in reality, Bone is a living tissue that is continuously created and reshaped and has microscopically porous structures. no see. thus Implant bone grafting is not simply a concept of filling, The process of creating space for bone cells to grow into It's much easier to understand if you think of it this way. When building a house, if you first set up the 'formwork', concrete will be poured into it and harden, right? Bone grafting is similar! The graft material acts as a mold. As my bone cells grow and enter it, it hardens into solid bone over time. In other words, bone grafting is not a process of 'attaching' bones, but a process of creating a 'frame (space)' for new bone growth. 2. What materials are used for bone grafting? Many people worry, “It’s not even my bone, so will it be okay?” bone graft material It is broadly divided into the following: 🔸 autologous bone Bone taken from the patient during surgery 🔸 heterognathic bone Materials safely processed from animal bones such as cows, horses, and pigs 🔸 Homologous bone Materials collected from another person's tissue and then sterilized and verified No single ingredient is always the best! They are used in combination according to the patient's gum bone condition and defect range. 3. So… is it impossible to get an implant ‘without bone grafting’? ✨ The correct answer is NO. Bone grafting is not necessary in all cases. The most important factor in deciding whether to have a bone graft is right, “How long has it been since you lost your tooth?” 📌 In this case, it is likely to be 'necessary' ⬆️ If you have lost a tooth for a long time and the gum bone has been absorbed a lot When the remaining bone thickness is very thin 📌 In this case, it may be 'avoidable' If the tooth was extracted relatively recently and there is sufficient existing bone remaining Also, these days, as implant technology advances, In some cases, stable implantation is possible without major surgery by using a 'short implant'. as a result “Bone grafting is not something that must always be done,” but rather a treatment that is decided based on the patient’s condition! 4. Short implants, are they okay? class I thought that a long implant would be advantageous, but Nowadays, surface technology and fixation power have advanced. Even short implants can be expected to provide sufficient stability. FAQ Q1. Are the purposes of bone grafting different for front teeth, molars, and teeth? A1. Yes, they are different. Molars must withstand strong chewing forces, so functional stability is the primary goal. Front teeth, on the other hand, are important for aesthetic reasons, as they need to prevent gum recession and shape changes. Therefore, if there is enough bone left on the molar side, it is possible to make a strategic choice of not necessarily going for bone grafting. Q2. If I don't do bone grafting and place a short implant, won't it be weak? A2. Surface treatment technology has improved, so you can expect sufficient fixing power. Q3. Is there anything patients can do in advance to avoid implant bone grafting? A3. If you manage inflammation well before tooth extraction, the implant environment can be greatly improved. Conclusion - “Knowing your bone condition and making a choice” is the most important. Implants are not simply a treatment to fill empty spaces. The process of remaking parts of my body no see. ✔️ “Everyone else is doing it” ✔️ “Because the hospital told me to do it” It's not something you can just decide. ✨ What is the condition of my bones? ✨ Is the purpose of bone grafting functional or aesthetic? ✨ Is there no alternative? It is wisest to compare and decide slowly based on this standard. If necessary, seek consultation from several hospitals. A treatment plan tailored to your oral condition I hope you find it.

오수환 원장25.12.30Views 382Likes 5 [Health Column] What Should You Do If Your Temporary Implant Teeth Fall Out on a Weekend or Holiday?[4]
Hello! I am Lee Hyun-seop, the Chief Director of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic. If a temporary implant tooth suddenly falls out on a Saturday evening, Sunday, or public holiday, anyone would likely panic and worry, thinking something terrible has happened. However, in most cases, if only the temporary tooth has come off, there is no need to be too alarmed. Today, I will explain step-by-step how to properly handle the situation without panicking if your temporary tooth falls out on a weekend or holiday. For your reference, Seoul Centum Dental Clinic is open every day from Monday to Sunday, except for the day of the holiday, so you can rest assured! (Source: AI Image) 🔹 What should I check first? First, check whether the missing part is the 'temporary tooth' or the 'implant itself'. 💡 Just a moment! > In most cases, only the temporary prosthesis detaches. Please rest assured that the implant body (fixture) inside the gum bone does not come out easily! If the pain is not severe and the metal part inside the gum is clearly visible, it is highly likely that only the temporary tooth has fallen out. 🔹 Why do temporary teeth fall out so easily? This is because a weak adhesive is used so that it can be removed before the final prosthesis is attached. Temporary teeth are not the final prosthetics. In most cases, they are attached with specialized temporary cement so that they can be easily removed later. As a result, it may fall out more easily than expected if subjected to tough or sticky foods, or repeated strong chewing force. In fact, if you attach it too strongly, it can become very difficult to remove later when inserting the final prosthesis. 🔹 What should I do if I miss a weekend or public holiday? Please do not panic and make sure to follow the four safety rules below. 📌 ① Do not throw away temporary teeth! If you gently rinse a fallen temporary tooth with clean water and store it properly in an airtight container before bringing it to the dentist, it can often be reattached. ⚠️ ② Absolutely do not attach it yourself! Occasionally, some patients come in having attached the prosthesis themselves using super glue or regular adhesive, but this is extremely dangerous. Please absolutely avoid this, as it can damage the prosthesis or allow the adhesive to seep into the gums, making treatment much more difficult. 📌 ③ Please eat on the opposite side! It is best to avoid using the treated area as much as possible. Soft foods such as porridge, eggs, tofu, and yogurt are recommended, and please avoid hard or chewy foods. 📌 ④ Please be sure to maintain oral hygiene! You should brush your teeth as usual, but please clean the area where the tooth is missing gently without scrubbing hard to prevent plaque from building up. 🔹 Is it okay to go to the dentist in a few days? If possible, it is best to visit as soon as possible without delaying it. Temporary teeth are not simply worn for aesthetic purposes; they play the following important roles. 🔸 Maintaining gum shape 🔸 Prevents movement of surrounding teeth 🔸 Maintaining space for the final prosthesis 🔸 Authoring Function Assistance If left empty for a long time, the gums may change shape or surrounding teeth may gradually shift, potentially resulting in the final prosthesis, which was carefully prepared, no longer fitting. 🔹 Should I visit the dentist sooner in these cases? It may not be a simple fallout, so you should seek medical attention immediately if you experience any of the following symptoms. ⚠️ We recommend seeking medical attention as soon as possible if you experience the following symptoms. ✔ When you feel like the implant is also loose ✔ When severe pain or bleeding persists ✔ When the gums swell noticeably ✔ When pus comes out or there is a strong odor ✔ When the metal part inside the gum moves along with it 🔹 How should I care for temporary teeth so they don't fall out again? You can prevent temporary teeth from falling out with just small changes to your daily habits. You need to take a little more care of your temporary teeth than usual while using them. ✨ Avoid tough foods ✨ Reduce sticky foods ✨ Do not bite on ice ✨ Do not chew excessively in only one direction ✨ Reduce the habit of clenching your teeth ❔ FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Q1. Can I reuse a temporary tooth if I bring it in even if it breaks? A1. If the temporary tooth has come off cleanly, it can be reattached immediately after lightly cleaning and bringing it in. Even if it is damaged, it is recommended to gather the pieces and bring them in, as the dental clinic needs to check the condition and either modify or remake it. Q2. Food keeps getting stuck in the spot where the temporary tooth fell out. Is it okay to poke around? A2. If you forcefully poke at the missing tooth with a toothpick or similar object, it may cause injury to the gums or increase the risk of infection. We recommend brushing your teeth gently, maintaining oral hygiene through light gargling, and visiting a dentist as soon as possible. 📌 Conclusion Losing a temporary implant tooth is a more common occurrence than you might think during the treatment process. The important thing is not to panic and try to solve it yourself with super glue or the like. Please keep the temporary tooth in its container, avoid chewing food on the treated area, and visit the dentist as soon as your schedule allows to have it checked by the medical staff.

이현섭 원장26.07.01Views 43Likes 3 [Health Column] 5 Things You Must Check for Safe Results Before Implant Surgery[4]
Hello! This is Dr. Lee Jeong-ho, Chief Director of Seoul Dia Dental Clinic. Usually, when people receive a consultation or hear about dental implants at a dental clinic, quite a few of them think to themselves like this. 💬 "Come on, it's just implanting one tooth. Isn't it a simpler surgery than you'd think?" However, it is by no means a simple matter. This is because dental implants are not simply a treatment where a single artificial tooth is placed and finished; rather, it is a precise treatment that requires the perfect alignment of the patient's current physical condition, the state of their gum bone, and their daily lifestyle habits. 📌 Today, the advice I actually give patients the most in the consultation room 5 Key Basic Conditions I will summarize it for you in an easy-to-understand way! 1️⃣ Why should the gum bone be checked before the teeth before implant surgery? The success of an implant depends on a solid and sufficient ' gum bone It is determined based on ' When you look in the mirror, you are bound to see only the empty space and think, "Ah, a tooth is missing in this spot." However, the principle of an implant is to firmly implant an artificial tooth root into the 'gum bone (alveolar bone)' beneath the space where the tooth was missing. It's just like how the soil needs to be firm when planting a tree. 🌱 Therefore, when you visit the dental clinic, the directors will first precisely diagnose the condition of your gum bone. What is important at this time 3 elements It is as follows. 🔸 Bone thickness (Is it wide enough to cover the artificial tooth root?) 🔸 Bone height (Is sufficient length secured?) 🔸 Bone hardness (Is the bone density good enough to provide good fixation?) ⚠️ Even if the gums appear healthy and plump on the outside, a thorough examination reveals that there are surprisingly many cases where the bone underneath has thinned or has already dissolved and been absorbed. If you are planning dental implants, it is essential to first undergo a CT scan to examine the invisible bone structure in three dimensions. 🔍 2️⃣ Why do I need to inform the dentist in advance if I have systemic diseases? Chronic underlying conditions are directly related to bleeding during surgery and recovery, so this is essential information for safety. There are people who cautiously ask, "Doctor, is it okay if I take blood pressure medication?" or "My diabetes is quite severe; is it okay to have surgery?" To start with the conclusion, chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, liver disease, and osteoporosis are all closely linked to implant surgery. ⚠️ This is because implants are a surgical procedure that involves incising the gums and manipulating the bone, so the management of the following three factors is crucial. ✔️ Control of bleeding during and after surgery ✔️ Rapid wound healing ability ✔️ Infection control regarding bacteria 💡 Even if you have systemic diseases ❌, surgery is not impossible. It is to create a customized plan for the safest time to proceed with the surgery and the method to be used. Therefore, please remember that when visiting the dentist, systemic diseases are never a secret to be hidden, but rather valuable data that will ensure the safety of your surgery! 😊 3️⃣ Should I check every single medication you take regularly, even minor treatments? Since the timing of surgery and hemostasis methods vary depending on the type of medication being taken, accurate sharing is necessary. When filling out a dental questionnaire, there is a section to list any medications you are currently taking, right? If you are facing implant surgery, information about your medication is truly more important than anything else. ✨ In particular, the success and safety of the surgery depend significantly on whether the following apply. 📌 blood-related drugs (Aspirin, etc.) 📌 Osteoporosis treatments and injections 📌 anticoagulant component These medications serve as important milestones in determining how to manage hemostasis on the day of surgery or whether to postpone the surgery. 📝 If you cannot remember the name of your medicine, please do not worry. You can simply take a photo of your prescription or medicine bag, or write it down, and we will carefully verify it for you! 4️⃣ How much does your condition the day before surgery affect the implant outcome? Overwork or drinking the day before is the main culprit that significantly increases pain and bleeding on the day. No matter how skilled a doctor is, if the implant is performed with a perfect plan, the difficulty of the surgery increases significantly if the patient's condition is poor on the day of the operation. 😢 It is most advisable to get dental implants when your body is in peak condition. ⚠️ Alcohol consumed late the previous day (drinking) ⚠️ Sleep deprivation caused by tossing and turning ⚠️ Overwork due to accumulated excessive schedule If you lie on the operating table in this state, your blood vessels will expand, causing a noticeable increase in bleeding during surgery compared to usual. Not only will your recovery speed slow down after surgery, but you may also feel much sharper and more severe pain when you wake up from anesthesia. ✔️ Take a complete break from alcohol for just one day 🙅♂️ ✔️ Go to bed early at night and get enough restful sleep 💤 5️⃣ What is a more fundamental question than "Doctor, can I have surgery today?" Finding the 'most correct timing' suited to the patient's periodontal condition is the priority, rather than speed. Perhaps because many people visiting the dental clinic for consultations are impatient, they frequently ask this question. 🙋♂️ "Director, it's hard for me to make time. Since I'm here today, can't you plant it for me right away?" Of course, if examination results show that the bone is very strong and there is absolutely no inflammation, there are cases where treatment involving immediate implantation on the same day is possible. However, from the medical team's perspective, there is a different question that must be asked with much greater weight than whether or not surgery is performed on the same day. ✨ "Would it really be suitable for the patient in the long term to plant it right now in this condition?" If severe inflammation remains at the extraction site, a preliminary step of thoroughly scraping out and cleaning the inflamed tissue may be necessary; additionally, if the bone tissue is weak, it may be much more beneficial to wait until the gum bone recovers and becomes firmer on its own before proceeding. Ultimately, dental implants are not a race against time to see 'how quickly you can get it done,' but a battle of precision to see 'how to install it at the most appropriate timing with the fewest side effects.' This seemingly minor difference in timing will result in a significant difference in outcome a few years later, determining whether you can use your implant properly for a long time. 💡 FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Q1. I have been taking osteoporosis medication for a long time. Will this significantly interfere with implant surgery? A1. Certain ingredients commonly used in the treatment of osteoporosis (such as bisphosphonates and denosumab) have the property of inhibiting the bone metabolic process in which bone is absorbed and regenerated. Therefore, it is essential to thoroughly examine the patient's medication history and duration prior to surgery. However, taking medication does not automatically mean that surgery is impossible; the plan will be safely modified after comprehensively reviewing the form of the medication (oral or injectable), the specific duration of use, and the status of underlying diseases. Never stop taking the medication on your own; please be sure to consult closely with your prescribing physician and dentist! ⚠️ Q2. Is it really a problem to have a light drink or two of beer or soju the night before surgery? A2. Yes, the effect is more noticeable than expected. Even a small amount of alcohol instantly dilates blood vessels upon entering the body, which can cause bleeding to be difficult to stop during surgery and may interfere with the effectiveness of the anesthetic. Please let go of the thought that "it will be okay a little" and I recommend taking a full day of rest the day before. 🙅♂️ 🔸 Conclusion When it comes to implant treatment, the top priority is to rationally determine "whether proceeding now is the best course of action given my physical condition," rather than unconditionally focusing on "how quickly the procedure can be finished, like lightning." Make sure to fully absorb what we covered today! 🧠 1️⃣ Thoroughly check the condition of the gum bone inside rather than the exterior 2️⃣ Do not hide your systemic diseases; use them as a compass for surgery. 3️⃣ Share all information about your daily medication, no matter how minor. 4️⃣ Protect your body by maintaining optimal condition the night before surgery 5️⃣ Entering at the optimal time rather than deciding on immediate surgery on the same day 💡 If you follow these commitments step-by-step with the medical team, there is no need to harbor excessive fear about the surgery, nor is there any reason to rush. Sometimes, treatment is like life itself; the more urgent the situation, the slower and more standard the path becomes—the safest and fastest shortcut. 🦷 If you have any questions about your bone condition or medications, feel free to consult with medical professionals at any time!
