“When the gum bone has melted away a lot.”

When people hear those words..

many feel a sense of discouragement close to despair.

That is especially true when the statement is about the front teeth.

The idea that a front tooth may have to be extracted is not simply a medical judgment...

For some people, it can affect appearance, confidence, and even the way they speak and smile.

That is why, at Blanche Dental Clinic near Nonhyeon Station, if possible, we first look for a way to preserve the tooth rather than extract it.

We are thinking together about how to protect these precious teeth.

And...

I am writing today’s post because I wanted to share a good method for people like this. haha

  1. Before the words “the gum bone has melted away,”

Do not lose hope Emdogain

Hearing that the gum bone has melted away can make your heart sink immediately.

Most patients who hear this for the first time ask the same question.

“So do I have to have it extracted..?”

The moment I hear that question in the treatment room...

the patient’s eyes briefly drop downward.

There is hesitation at the corners of the mouth.. and anxiety flickers around the eyes.

When I see that expression, my heart feels very heavy too.ㅠㅠ

(How frightening and... heartbreaking it must have been to hear that...)

The gum bone is the foundation that holds the teeth in place.

It is like the soil surrounding the roots.

Just as a tree will shake if the soil beneath it collapses, teeth also become loose when the bone melts away.

The problem is that this kind of damage progresses more slowly and quietly than most people expect.

If your gums bleed often, the gums recede, and one day you look in the mirror and feel that your teeth have gotten longer, it may already have progressed to some extent.

But fortunately, I want to share the good news that there is no need to despair.

That is because modern treatment is no longer limited to simply preventing worsening...

It has become possible to restore lost tissue.

One of the technologies at the center of this is ‘Emdogain.’

  1. How Emdogain works on gum bone Emdogain

Emdogain: At a Dental Clinic Near Nonhyeon Station, Here Is How to Preserve Gums image 6

Emdogain is made based on proteins that our bodies naturally produced when teeth were developing.

It artificially recreates the ‘enamel matrix derivative’ used when the tooth roots grew during childhood and the surrounding tissues formed.

This protein was designed so that it can also

influence regeneration of adult gum bone. haha

To put it in an analogy, it acts like a fertilizer that revives the soil so seeds can be planted again in collapsed ground.

When Emdogain is applied to the gums...

surrounding cells respond by thinking,

“Ah, it’s time to rebuild.”

and begin tissue regeneration.

It is not noticeable immediately after the procedure, but over the course of several months, the density and stability of the bone gradually recover.

  1. When can Emdogain be considered? Emdogain

It may feel a little distant when heard only in theory...

But when we actually use Emdogain in clinical practice, we can clearly feel the difference.

That is why, at the dental clinic near Nonhyeon Station, it is considered first for areas with significant aesthetic concerns, such as the front teeth...

or for people who want to keep their natural teeth.

If it is still too early to proceed directly with an implant, Emdogain can become a turning point that changes the direction of treatment. haha

Of course, this treatment cannot be used in every situation.

If bone loss is too extensive or structurally difficult to recover, its effect may be limited.

Therefore, an accurate diagnosis and careful planning must come first, and a treatment plan suited to the situation is important.

What I want to emphasize is...

just because there is a problem with the gum bone does not mean an implant is always required.

For people who do not want to give up their natural teeth, Emdogain can become a new option.

Especially when it is a visible area like the front teeth.

Above all, Emdogain is a treatment covered by national health insurance...

and is available at a cost of around 80,000 to 90,000 won on average.

Today, I explained why and how the treatment called Emdogain is used for gum bone recovery.

Now, the conclusion I most want to share is this.

If you read this post and are worried about your own teeth, please have them checked once.

It may become the starting point for changing the direction of treatment.

Blanche Dental Clinic will always stand with you at the doorway to that possibility.^^
