If You’re Looking for a Place to Visit Comfortably After Work

Yeoksam Station Dentist

Hello.

I am Oh Tae-hoon, director of 디데이치과, where our goal is to provide treatments with minimal pain.

“Doctor, I often work late.

What if I’m unable to come back midway through treatment?”

This is what I hear most often from office workers who come in after work without even loosening their ties.

It wasn’t that they had failed to notice their toothache and simply put off treatment.

Making time to visit a clinic in the first place was itself a major decision.

As they postponed it for one month, then two, the pain became increasingly noticeable,

while their only resolution was, “I’ll definitely go this weekend.”

When they finally considered going, they did not know how many visits would be needed or how painful each visit might be, which made it feel even more daunting.

If you read to the end, today can be the last time you put off treatment because “you don’t have enough time.”

  1. It’s Not That You Have No Time; You Simply Can’t Bring Yourself to Go

The patterns among our office-worker patients are similar.

They ignore a slight sensitivity because they are busy, endure throbbing pain with painkillers, and only come in once they can no longer sleep.

By then, the tooth has often been sending warning signals for quite some time.

The stage where it is only slightly sensitive to cold water and the stage where it wakes you at night require completely different levels of treatment.

The problem is that dental treatment is similar to an installment plan.

Postponed treatment always accrues interest.

A case that could have ended with a simple cavity treatment may require root canal treatment,

and I have seen many cases where a tooth that could have been saved with root canal treatment ultimately had to be extracted.

As treatment becomes more extensive, the number of visits, the cost, and the recovery period all increase.

You postponed treatment because you had no time, but then you need even more time because you postponed it.

So, the question busy people are most curious about is: is there a way to reduce the burden of visiting the clinic itself?

  1. There Are Ways to Reduce the Number of Visits and the Pain

There is one principle I consider especially important in my clinical practice.

For procedures that may cause pain, I try to complete them all on the first day so that patients can go home afterward.

Once you get through the difficult part of treatment on the first day, you can visit from then on without being in pain.

A “dentist visit that hurts every time” and a “dentist visit where you only have to endure it once” feel completely different to busy office workers.

The same applies to anesthesia.

When the anesthetic is injected slowly, the gums gradually adjust, allowing anesthesia to take effect with almost no sensation.

When it is administered hurriedly because of time pressure, it is that much more painful.

Whenever significant pain is expected, I always let patients know in advance.

Expected pain and sudden pain require completely different mental preparation to endure.

Of course, this does not mean that every treatment can be completed in one day.

However, by concentrating the painful parts toward the beginning, you can picture the treatment schedule in your mind.

Knowing how many more visits will be needed and what will happen during each one can reduce the burden by half.

  1. Yeoksam Station Dentist: Our Promise to Patients Visiting After Work

Last week, I said this to a patient in their 30s who often works late:

We’ll complete everything that may hurt today before you leave. From next time, we’ll simply be checking and refining the treatment, so you can come in comfortably.

I still remember how their tense expression relaxed when they heard those words.

We also do not push ahead unreasonably when creating a treatment plan.

We review the patient’s schedule and condition and determine the order, starting with the treatments that are essential.

I personally handle everything from consultation through treatment, so the explanation does not change from visit to visit and the plan does not keep shifting.

Before treatment, I explain in advance what procedure will be performed that day and what it may feel like afterward.

I learn every day in the treatment room that busy people need treatment they can anticipate.

There is one thing I would like to tell you today.

What made you postpone treatment was not laziness,

but the fear of pain you could not predict and uncertainty about your schedule.

A routine where you stop by for treatment on your way home and go to work the next day as usual.

It is my role to create a plan that makes this possible.

Before the nights of getting by on painkillers become even longer, come and set down one of the burdens on your mind.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at any time.^^
