Magok Station Dental Clinic Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Specialist, Smile Wesh’s Treatment Philosophy

Hello,

I am Won Yujin, an oral and maxillofacial surgery specialist at Yonsei Weshe Dental Clinic, Magok Station Dental Clinic.

During my studies and practical training at dental school, I met a wide variety of patients.

Among them were people who came in with a broken jaw,

people suffering because of deeply impacted wisdom teeth,

and people who had tumors in the oral cavity and needed surgery.

Seeing them made me think this.

“Shouldn’t someone become a dentist who can take full responsibility to the end in difficult situations like these?”

That thought led me to the path I am on now.

Many people ask,

What is different about a specialist?

A specialist is a dentist who, after graduating from dental school, completes one year of internship

and then three years of residency training,

and passes the specialist examination.

Among these specialties,

‘oral and maxillofacial surgery,’ which I trained in,

is a field that surgically treats

inflammation, trauma, tumors, cysts, and other conditions that occur

in the mouth, jaw, and facial areas.

Broadly speaking,

this includes major surgeries such as oral cancer surgery and jaw fracture surgery,

and on a smaller scale,

it also includes wisdom tooth extraction and implant surgery.

In addition,

we also learn and build a professional understanding of systemic conditions and medications

so that even patients with conditions such as hypertension or diabetes

can undergo surgery safely.

Cases where treatment by an oral and maxillofacial surgery specialist is needed

So, when

is treatment by an oral and maxillofacial surgery specialist at Magok Station Dental Clinic necessary?

When you have a systemic condition and were told treatment is difficult at a general dental clinic

For patients with systemic conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, or heart disease,

there are many factors to consider before treatment.

At Yonsei Weshe Dental Clinic, Magok Station Dental Clinic,

we carefully review the patient’s overall condition

as well as any medications they are taking,

and provide treatment safely.

Before extraction or implant surgery,

our Yonsei Weshe Dental Clinic checks every patient’s blood pressure and blood sugar first.

It may be a little inconvenient,

but we believe this is a necessary step for safer treatment

after carefully checking the patient’s overall condition.

When your fear of dental treatment is too great

Some people tremble just from going to a dental clinic in Magok Station,

and no matter how determined they are, they simply cannot go through with treatment.

For patients like these,

we help make surgery possible in comfort

through a method called ‘conscious sedation.’

You can receive dental treatment comfortably with sedation.

When a wisdom tooth is deeply impacted or you were told extraction is difficult because it is close to bone

Has your wisdom tooth been deeply embedded in the bone,

or is it close to an important nerve in the lower jaw,

and have you been told that “extraction is difficult” or “you should go to a university hospital”?

Even such high-difficulty wisdom tooth extractions

can be sufficiently handled at Yonsei Weshe Dental Clinic in Magok Station,

where an oral and maxillofacial surgery specialist personally provides treatment.

When the bone condition is poor and implant treatment is said to be difficult

Even when bone grafting or high-difficulty surgery is required,

we proceed with a carefully planned surgical plan.

Not just treatment, but a shared ‘Weshe’ I am truly committed to painless anesthesia..

Yonsei Weshe Dental Clinic does not simply aim to become “a hospital that is good at treatment.”

Above all, we provide care with the hope of becoming a place where patients can receive treatment comfortably and with peace of mind.

We carefully look at the patient’s overall health condition, medications they are taking,

and even any anxiety they may feel about treatment,

and prepare care based on ‘safety’ and ‘accuracy.’

Patients who find treatment difficult and patients who are very nervous are both welcome.

With us, try wishing for comfortable and trustworthy care,

‘Weshe.’

We look forward to seeing you at Yonsei Weshe Dental Clinic, Magok Station.
