Implants effects, reviews, and prices

I came in because I had severe jaw joint pain after hitting my chin hard against the floor, and I had a full dental checkup. I was treated by Dr. Jae-hoon Kim, the head director. After hitting my chin, it was extremely uncomfortable to chew because of the pain around my chin and the nearby teeth, and it hurt so much that I could even feel a throbbing pain around the teeth. After the head director’s kind examination, I felt relieved and noticed that I was feeling much better. Because my jaw had taken such a hard impact, I was very worried that I might urgently need dental implants, and I couldn’t sleep much. But after having X-rays taken and hearing the overall assessment, I felt quite reassured. I realized how important it is to have a thorough consultation and examination with the head director, and I came to feel that if any difficult-to-predict problem arises with my teeth, I should definitely discuss it with the head director before making any decisions.

I received dental implant treatment under sedation. I was worried because I had a lot of teeth that needed treatment, but I was able to get treated comfortably while sedated. Before the surgery, they took a CT scan, and the doctor explained everything in detail before proceeding with the surgery. I was also worried that I might have trouble eating after the treatment, but they gave me a nutritional IV after the surgery. I really appreciated how much care they seemed to put into not only the surgery itself but also the recovery process.

Last year, I had crowns and fillings done because my teeth were weak, but my gums near the molars were swollen. I didn’t have enough information on where to go, but luckily a friend recommended a good dental clinic. At Wise Dental Clinic, the female doctor was incredibly kind and explained everything. The staff was also excellent. They have a separate orthodontist who offers free consultations. After taking X-rays and doing some additional imaging, we discovered the state of my gum inflammation. The doctor asked if I had been in pain all this time as my gums were swollen and had shown signs multiple times. They said the bone where the implant was supposed to be had deteriorated due to inflammation, so I would have to extract it and wait. They did the scaling first, then I received anesthesia to inform me that they would start the molar extraction. After confirming the anesthesia, they pulled it right away, and I felt like my other jaw was being pulled too. Two hours later, when they took out the gauze, I felt emptiness in my mouth.

I’ve been using one side of my mouth to chew due to a missing tooth for a long time, and it was uncomfortable feeling like food was constantly getting stuck, so I decided to visit the dentist. I really wanted to have a proper consultation about a dental bridge this time, and from the very beginning, I was impressed by how detailed the consultation was. They showed me my current tooth and gum conditions in detail using X-rays and an oral scan, calmly explaining the differences between an implant and a bridge, as well as what treatment would be more suitable for my dental state. They weren’t pushing for expensive treatments; instead, they honestly indicated that the bridge was a realistic choice, considering the condition of my surrounding teeth, my chewing strength, and the difficulty of maintenance, which made me trust them. They explained the treatment process step-by-step beforehand, allowing me to mentally prepare. When it came time to proceed, they checked each step from anesthesia to removal and taking impressions, which helped ease my tension. Even with the temporary tooth in place, I barely felt any discomfort, and after placing the final bridge, I was surprised that the chewing sensation felt almost just like a natural tooth.

I'm currently undergoing implant surgery at Seoul Shinsegae Dental Clinic. Dr. Jong-Min Lee is in charge of my case. Last week, I had three molars extracted from the upper and lower right side, and four front teeth on the bottom. They placed three screws at the same time as the extractions. We did it under local anesthesia, but it still hurt a bit. For the front teeth, we needed to add a bit more anesthesia during the procedure. They said I need a bone graft for the two molars they extracted from the upper right side, so they postponed putting in the screws for now. There was a lot of work done, and it was tough. I have to stick to liquid food like porridge for over a week, and it didn’t come cheap either... More than anything, this is my first major procedure, so I'm not entirely comfortable with letting go of my natural teeth. I guess it's just a necessary step as we age, right? I think I’ll have to continue coming back for a few more months. For now, I'll go back in about ten days to have the stitches taken out and for a check-up.

I completed the final procedure: placing the implant fixture (artificial tooth root) and fitting the abutment and dental crown. Now that the long treatment process is over, I feel a little bittersweet, but it’s also incredibly moving to finally be able to chew food without worrying. The finishing procedure was much simpler than I expected. It was completely painless—so much so that I didn’t even need anesthesia. After connecting the fabricated artificial tooth, the doctor carefully checked how well it fit against the gums and the gaps where the dental floss would pass through. In particular, while adjusting my bite—the way my upper and lower teeth come together—the doctor had me bite down on a piece of paper several times and meticulously fine-tuned it. Thanks to that, I don’t feel any foreign sensation at all. At first, the new crown felt unfamiliar and awkward, but after a few hours, it became as comfortable as my natural tooth. I was advised to avoid hard foods for the time being and was also given tips on dental scaling and gum care. I’m determined to maintain it well for a long time through regular checkups.

This has been the dental clinic I've been going to for treatment for a long time. My mother regularly visits this place for treatments and implant surgeries. I haven't been there myself, but I plan to visit when I have a problem or if my teeth start to hurt. The nurses and dentists are all very friendly, and the clinic is clean and nice, according to my mother. After she started going to DeBarun Dental Clinic, her condition improved a lot. The dentist carefully explained the foods and behaviors she should watch out for, which helped her recover faster. Thanks to that, she can go about her daily life comfortably. Following the rules for a month really made a big difference. I'm grateful for the gentle care and when my teeth start to decay, I will visit often, so please treat me kindly. I hope you take great care of everyone who has dental issues.

I decided to go for the procedure because I was becoming increasingly uncomfortable using only one side for chewing. Dr. Kim Ji-seok first checked the condition of my jawbone using 3D CT imaging and carefully explained the height of the bone and the position of the nerves. In my case, the bone was in good condition, so it could be done without a separate bone graft, which reassured me. The treatment was done under local anesthesia and involved the implant placement surgery. They provided ample anesthesia, so I felt almost no pain during the surgery, and the chair time wasn’t as long as I had expected. After the surgery, they fitted a temporary tooth to ensure I could return to my daily life with minimal inconvenience. After the 2-3 month bone integration period, they connected the final prosthesis, and I was satisfied because the color and height were almost indistinguishable from my natural teeth. I appreciated how they explained the process step by step and carefully guided me on what to expect before and after the surgery. They proceeded only with what was necessary without over-treatment, which built my trust in them. There was a bit of swelling and soreness on the day of the surgery, but it subsided significantly within 2-3 days.

My mother, who is in her 70s, mentioned that she had been experiencing discomfort with her molar teeth for some time now. She had been tolerating it, but as the pain worsened, she found it difficult to eat. In the end, she decided that it couldn't be postponed any longer, so we went together for an implant consultation. When we arrived for our appointment, they first took some photos of the affected area during a preliminary examination and explained the current issues in detail. Then we proceeded with an X-ray, and seeing the actual images helped my mother easily understand her dental condition. A little while later, the doctor came in and explained things in a calm manner, breaking down the complex terminology so that my mother felt reassured quickly. In my mother's case, the doctor only recommended treatment for the most problematic tooth and provided two options for the other teeth, suggesting that we keep an eye on them for now and think it over. It was evident that they respected the patient's perspective by not pushing for unnecessary procedures, which increased my trust in them.

I finally had the temporary tooth made after the dental implant placement fitted into the space in my gums. While the tooth was missing, it was not only unattractive, but I also had to chew on just one side every time I ate, which put a strain on my jaw and gums and caused a lot of discomfort. After getting the temporary tooth fitted, the empty space was neatly filled, and I immediately felt much more at ease. The process of precisely fitting and adjusting the physical balance of the temporary tooth made from an impression went smoothly without much pain. Thanks to the careful work of gradually shaving and refining it while checking my bite, there was less of a foreign-body sensation than I expected even right after it was fitted. Of course, since this is not the final restoration, I have to avoid sticky or hard foods and be careful not to irritate it. Still, during everyday conversations or light meals, I no longer have to worry about the space where my tooth was missing, so I feel like my quality of life has improved significantly. I hope my gums fuse well with the implant fixture and that I adjust smoothly without any problems during the temporary-tooth period, so everything continues uneventfully until the high-quality final prosthesis is made soon.

I received a diagnosis that I needed implants and decided to get treatment in Gangnam since it's somewhat famous and was recommended in a blog, even though it's far from my home. One day, after receiving the artificial root implant, I experienced sudden, severe pain and bleeding about a week later. I found it strange and went back for a visit, but the doctor at that time said that it might just be simple pain before it heals, so they only prescribed anti-inflammatory painkillers. I trusted their advice and waited, but the pain got worse. When I returned for another visit, only then did they realize the fixture was loose and I had to go through the re-implantation process! For a week, I dealt with unpleasant pain and discomfort, the hassle of traveling such a distance, and above all, the frustration and stress left me emotionally scarred. When I filed a complaint, they only gave me a generic response stating that such cases happen occasionally, which made me very upset. The expressions of the doctor and dental hygienist seemed to convey an attitude of 'Why are you complaining about this?' which was really disheartening. Somehow I ended up receiving treatment, but for anyone thinking of going to this clinic, please note that there are plenty of other clinics nearby with better and more capable doctors. Just writing this brings back those memories and makes me feel upset again. 😢

Just got a great scaling done! Feeling completely refreshed~

I visited the clinic for wisdom tooth extraction based on a friend's recommendation. After a consultation, I had my impacted wisdom tooth removed, and they were very kind and made sure I wasn't in pain. I also made the appointment over the phone, and they explained everything clearly. If you're getting a wisdom tooth extraction, I highly recommend Elephant Dental Clinic. I'll definitely come back next time!

I found out about Elephant Dental while looking into wisdom tooth extraction. They did it well without any pain, explained everything kindly, and I recommend Elephant Dental!

I was struggling to decide which dentist to go to because my teeth were in bad shape, and I ended up choosing the Elephant Dental Clinic. I kept putting off dental treatment because I was scared, but I couldn't take it anymore and had to find a dentist. I was really happy to find a dental clinic near my home that offered sedation treatment. I received treatment comfortably.

They are very kind without any over-treatment. Wishing you success, Elephant Dental is the best!!

This is the life-changing dental clinic in Haeundae that we trust as a couple; we were so impressed by Dr. Jang's perfect care!

Especially, Dr. Jang's skilled hands and the support from the nurses and assistants worked together flawlessly, allowing me to feel a strong sense of trust throughout the treatment. Without excessive treatment, Dr. Jang accurately assessed my condition and systematically provided only the necessary prescriptions, showcasing the true quality of the medical team.

When I heard I needed to get implants, my first concern was the surgery itself more than the cost. Now that I'm in my 60s, I've heard around me that it takes longer to stop bleeding when you get a cut, and I was scared of the pain, so I went in just to have a consultation. During the consultation, they suggested breaking the process into stages according to the condition of my gums instead of doing everything at once, and they helped me plan out the treatment period and costs together. Hearing in advance how many visits I would have and at what stage the expenses would incur helped ease my vague worries. On the day of the surgery, before the anesthesia, they explained the order of the procedure for the day. Lying there not knowing what was going to happen is the most nerve-wracking, but knowing the process made it much easier. I was told they would minimize the incisions, and indeed the bleeding was less than I expected, and the swelling wasn’t too bad. Having the consultation room as a separate space meant I could ask questions without worrying about other people, which was comfortable for me. I used the Chuncheon Pungmul Market public parking, and I didn’t have any trouble with parking. The costs followed the initial plan, so there were no unexpected expenses along the way. I think it’s better to first listen to a plan that suits your condition rather than putting off the surgery out of fear.

Although it’s a little far from my home, I wanted to find a place that was truly excellent when it came to dental treatment, so I followed a recommendation and visited “Duam Dental Clinic.” I had always had a vague fear of dental treatment since I was young, and I could never quite bring myself to go, but the moment I walked into this clinic, all those worries melted away. From the moment I checked in, the front desk staff greeted me so brightly and kindly. The waiting area was also clean, comfortable, and well maintained, so I was able to wait for my turn feeling completely at ease. This time, I had dental implants done at Duam Dental Clinic, and just as the clinic’s reputation suggested, the dentist was highly skilled and carefully assessed every detail of my condition. Thanks to the dentist in charge, who took great care to check whether I was experiencing any pain or discomfort throughout the procedure, and the nurses, who always looked after me warmly with a smile, I was able to complete the treatment safely without feeling overly frightened. After the procedure, they also explained clearly what I needed to be careful about during the recovery period and how to take care of the treated area, so I could return home and recover with peace of mind. After experiencing it myself, I now completely understand why so many people are willing to travel a long distance to come here. Whenever I need dental care in the future, I think I’ll come straight to “Duam Dental Clinic” without hesitation. I sincerely recommend it to anyone looking for a thorough and highly skilled dental clinic.
