Dangsan Dental Clinic Implant Structure: Thorough Treatment

Dangsan Dental Clinic Implant Structure

Thorough Treatment

As we live, we can lose permanent teeth for a variety of reasons. First, as we age, the strength of the gums weakens, and teeth can fall out.

In addition to aging, teeth can also be lost due to accidents or oral diseases, and once a tooth is lost, it does not erupt again.

Losing a tooth can cause various inconveniences, so it is a good idea to receive appropriate restorative treatment at Dangsan Dental Clinic to restore tooth function.

If you leave a lost tooth untreated because you do not feel much discomfort after losing it, the surrounding teeth may tilt into the empty space and the alignment of the teeth can become crooked.

When the alignment becomes crooked like this, chewing force can also decrease, and if chewing function declines, digestive function can also worsen, potentially causing problems such as indigestion.

Therefore, to restore tooth function and improve aesthetic concerns, it is best to receive appropriate restorative treatment and regain the function of natural teeth.

Representative restorative treatments that help restore tooth function after tooth loss include implants, dentures, and bridges.

Recently, the number of people seeking implant procedures has increased for reasons such as durability and aesthetics. If implants are placed and maintained properly, they can be used for a long time.

Also, unlike dentures, which attach devices to adjacent teeth, or bridges, which require grinding down neighboring teeth and placing crowns, implants are performed by directly placing them into the jawbone.

The implant structure consists of an artificial root that acts as the tooth root, a tooth-shaped crown that is the visible part, and an abutment that connects the two.

When the artificial root is placed into the jawbone, it undergoes osseointegration with the bone tissue, so the implant does not easily wobble and becomes fixed in place.

Because it is firmly fixed, chewing force can be restored to a certain level, allowing you to regain the enjoyment of eating.

Implants also provide aesthetic value. The crown used in the final stage of the implant is made in a color and shape similar to natural teeth.

Because it has a shape similar to natural teeth, there is little awkwardness when talking or eating, making it quite natural.

To use implants for a long time after placement, consistent maintenance is necessary. If proper care is not taken, peri-implantitis can develop.

Peri-implantitis refers to inflammation around the gums where the implant was placed, causing symptoms such as swelling, bleeding, or pain.

Because symptoms can occur if the implant is placed in the wrong position or if careful maintenance is not performed after placement, you should choose a place that provides attentive post-treatment care.

Also, for proper placement, you should check whether a treatment plan is being established through a thorough diagnosis and whether the medical staff have extensive clinical experience.

At the nearby Dangsan Dental Clinic, the medical team from Yonsei University College of Dentistry is responsible for everything from consultation to implant procedures and post-treatment care.

Based on extensive clinical experience, they carefully diagnose the patient's oral condition, establish a treatment plan, and carry out the procedure, which helps increase satisfaction.

In addition, only genuine implant materials whose safety and quality have been verified are used for implant procedures, allowing the implants to be used for a longer period.

Post-treatment care is also carried out carefully. By issuing an implant warranty and providing customized aftercare for each patient even after treatment, satisfaction can be further increased.

There are cases where patients need implant treatment but postpone visiting the clinic because they are afraid of the dental environment or the treatment itself, which can lead to worsening symptoms.

To help patients with severe dental anxiety receive treatment comfortably, sleep implant procedures using conscious sedation are being performed.

Conscious sedation is a method of receiving treatment in a semi-sleep state. Because patients hardly remember the pain or discomfort experienced during the procedure, they can receive treatment comfortably.

To precisely check the patient's oral condition, treatment plans are established through careful diagnosis using 3D-CT equipment before carrying out the procedure.

Since patient monitoring equipment is available, the semi-sleep state, blood pressure, heart rate, and other factors are checked in real time, making the procedure safer.

Dangsan Dental Clinic also has a recovery room, so patients can rest sufficiently after a sleep implant procedure before going home.

In addition to sleep implants, conscious sedation sleep treatment is also applied to procedures such as root canal treatment, cavity treatment, and wisdom tooth extraction, allowing patients to receive treatment comfortably.

Night clinics are held every Monday and Wednesday from 9:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., so you can visit in the evening for treatment.
