The Full Implant Placement Process: Does It Hurt? How Long Does It Take? - Seokplant Dental Hospital

| 🦷 What Is an Implant? |

An implant is a treatment method in which an artificial root (titanium) is placed where a natural tooth has been lost, and a prosthesis is then attached on top of it. It bonds firmly with the jawbone and can perform functions similar to those of a natural tooth.

💎 Start Full Implants Without Worry!

– Seokplant Dental Hospital, with genuine Osstem products, zirconia prosthetics, and personalized care without unnecessary treatment

Did you know that dental health is directly connected to overall health?

In particular, when multiple teeth have been lost or all teeth need to be replaced, full implant treatment, which restores function like natural teeth, can be a great choice for improving quality of life.

Today, we’ll explain in detail the implant placement process performed at Seokplant Dental Hospital,

as well as whether health insurance applies, plus the use of genuine Osstem products, zirconia prosthetics, and a customized care system 😊

🦷 How Is the Implant Placement Process Performed?

At Seokplant Dental Hospital, implant placement is carried out safely and carefully in the following steps.

1. Diagnosis and Consultation

Through 3D CT imaging, we assess the height and width of the jawbone, the location of nerves, and more,

and establish a personalized treatment plan tailored to the patient’s oral structure.

2. Implant Placement Surgery

This is the process of placing the artificial root (Osstem implant), which serves as the root of the tooth, into the jawbone.

Seokplant minimizes treatment time with a painless anesthesia system to reduce discomfort.

3. Osseointegration Period

We allow about 2 to 3 months of recovery so that the placed artificial root can integrate well with the bone,

and if needed, we also provide guidance on temporary teeth to help minimize inconvenience in daily life.

4. Prosthesis Connection – Zirconia Available

This is the stage where the prosthesis that serves as the visible part of the tooth is attached,

and zirconia has a color and texture closest to natural teeth, with relatively low concern about allergies.]

💰 Which Implants Are Covered by Health Insurance?

If you are 65 or older!

Through health insurance, you can receive benefits for up to two implant procedures in your lifetime.

• You can receive treatment by paying only the out-of-pocket portion

• Treatment is possible with genuine Osstem implants

• At Seokplant, we kindly explain whether insurance coverage applies

※ In the case of full implants, insurance coverage is limited, but if they are combined with partial implants or if you pay out of pocket, various benefit programs are also available, so be sure to consult with us!
