Hello.
A place that does its best
to create a healthy smile
This is Atoile de Seoul Dental Clinic.
Today, we would like to explain in detail about “Minish,” which many people are interested in. Minish at Atoile de Seoul Dental Clinic refers to Zeronate, meaning no-prep laminate.
Unlike conventional laminates, which required removing about 0.5 mm to 1 mm of the tooth surface, Minish is an aesthetic method that greatly reduces tooth reduction or proceeds without any reduction at all.
Its biggest feature is that it can create a beautiful smile while reducing damage to natural teeth. It is suitable for people concerned about gaps between teeth, discolored teeth, or irregular tooth shape. Let’s take a look at how it differs from conventional laminates and in what cases it is a good option.

"What has changed from before?"

Minish is, literally, an aesthetic method that is performed with almost no tooth reduction. In the past, regular laminates involved reducing the tooth surface by about 0.5 mm to 1 mm and then attaching artificial material. However, Minish, a no-prep laminate, reduces tooth reduction or does not perform it at all, and instead attaches a thin ceramic material. This has the advantage of creating a beautiful smile while reducing damage to natural teeth.

So, in what cases is Minish at Atoile de Seoul Dental Clinic a good option?
First, it is suitable for cases where there are gaps between teeth, when the tooth color is dark and hard to change even with whitening, or when the tooth shape is irregular or appears small. It can also be a good alternative for people who have slight protrusion or crookedness but find orthodontic treatment 부담스러운. In particular, it is suitable for those who want an aesthetic change while preserving the health of their natural teeth as much as possible.

The biggest difference between conventional laminates and no-prep laminates is the amount of tooth reduction. Regular laminates required a significant amount of tooth surface to be shaved down in order to attach the ceramic, which created the burden that the procedure could not be reversed afterward. On the other hand, no-prep laminates reduce tooth reduction or do not perform it at all, allowing natural teeth to be preserved as much as possible. They also have the advantages of less pain during the procedure and a faster recovery period. The risk of increased tooth sensitivity or nerve damage is also significantly lower, making treatment less burdensome.

Another advantage I would like to share with those looking into Minish at Atoile de Seoul Dental Clinic is its natural aesthetics. Using modern ceramic materials, it is possible to create a customized design that matches one’s own tooth color and shape, and because of its excellent light transmittance and color reproduction, the result can be so natural that it is difficult to distinguish from natural teeth. The strength and durability of the teeth are also excellent, so with proper care, a beautiful smile can be maintained for a long time.

Atoile de Seoul Dental Clinic provides careful and thoughtful treatment using 3D navigation and digital technology. The chief director, a graduate of Seoul National University with more than 20 years of clinical experience, personally provides treatment, and various devices such as 3D CT, an oral scanner, and a 3D printer are used to establish a plan suitable for each visitor. In particular, before Minish is performed, detailed oral scanning and simulation allow patients to preview the results, which leads to high satisfaction among those who visit.

The Minish procedure is relatively simple.
First, a detailed oral examination is performed to identify the condition of the teeth and the patient’s needs. After that, the mouth is scanned with a 3D scanner and a customized design is created. If needed, minimal tooth reduction is performed, and a temporary prosthesis is made so the patient can experience the result in advance. Finally, the ceramic laminate is fabricated and carefully attached to complete the procedure. The entire process is usually completed in two to three visits, and normal daily life is possible from the same day.
After Minish treatment at Atoile de Seoul Dental Clinic, aftercare is also very important. Just like natural teeth, careful daily brushing and flossing are necessary, and it is best to avoid biting or tearing hard or chewy foods directly with the front teeth. If you have a habit of grinding your teeth or biting your nails, it is recommended to change those habits, and regular checkups are needed to examine the condition of the laminate and the health of the surrounding gums. Atoile de Seoul Dental Clinic recommends a regular checkup every six months and helps ensure that a beautiful smile lasts for a long time through a thorough aftercare system.
