Sangsu Station Dental Clinic Conscious Sedation
Sleep Implant Treatment Through

As the era of 100-year lifespans has arrived, the importance of health has been emphasized. Just like other parts of the body, oral health also needs careful management.
However, due to sudden accidents, aging, or inadequate daily care, people may lose their natural teeth.
When natural teeth are lost, it can cause various inconveniences in daily life, so it is advisable to receive appropriate treatment at a dental clinic near Sangsu Station.

We chew and taste food through our teeth, but if we lose teeth, we may not be able to chew properly and may face restrictions in eating.
Also, if front teeth are lost, speech may not be clear, making communication with others difficult, and aesthetic concerns may also arise.
If tooth loss is left untreated without immediate care, adjacent teeth may shift into the empty space, causing the overall alignment of the teeth to become unbalanced.

Therefore, to restore tooth function, restorative treatment should be considered, and dentures that attach to adjacent teeth are often used.
Dentures have the advantages of reducing financial burden and shortening treatment time, but their fixation is weak, so they can easily wobble or even come loose.
Recently, many people have been seeking implant procedures. Since they are performed by placing them directly into the jawbone, they are relatively well fixed.

The implant procedure is carried out by placing an artificial root made of titanium into the jawbone. At this time, through the osseointegration process, the jawbone tissue and the artificial root fuse together and become firmly fixed.
Because it has strong fixation, it can provide chewing force similar to that of natural teeth, allowing food to be eaten more easily.
In addition, the prosthetic crown placed after the artificial root is inserted has a color and shape similar to natural teeth, so it also provides a natural aesthetic appearance.

Implant procedures are among the more difficult dental treatments, so several factors needed to be carefully considered before choosing them.
First, it was necessary to check whether experienced medical staff who have treated patients with various cases are on site, and whether treatment and placement plans are being established through precise diagnosis.
It was also necessary to check whether aftercare is being carried out thoroughly in order to use implants for a long time and reduce the risk of side effects that may occur after placement.

There were times when patients hesitated to receive treatment because of a strong fear of visiting the dentist, but delaying treatment could lead to other problems.
Therefore, if you have postponed visiting the dentist because of fear or anxiety, it is advisable to consider sleep dentistry, which allows treatment in a comfortable state.
To help patients with dental phobia receive treatment more comfortably, the Sangsu Station dental clinic was performing sleep implant procedures through conscious sedation.

Conscious sedation is a method in which a midazolam ampoule is administered to induce a semi-sleep state in which the patient can breathe on their own, and then treatment is performed.
Treatment is carried out in this semi-sleep state, and it helps reduce fear of dental treatment by making the patient unable to remember the pain or discomfort experienced during the procedure.
Even when high-difficulty procedures such as multiple implant placements or bone grafting are needed, sleep dentistry through conscious sedation is possible, helping reduce the patient’s burden.

A medical team from Yonsei University College of Dentistry, based on extensive clinical experience, was in charge of sleep implant procedures through conscious sedation.
Because the procedure was performed directly by medical staff who had experience with various cases, careful treatment was being provided according to the patient’s condition.
Only genuine implant materials with verified safety and quality were used during implant procedures, and systematic aftercare was provided after the procedure through an implant warranty certificate.

To carefully check the patient’s oral condition, which is difficult to assess with the naked eye, detailed diagnosis was performed using 3D-CT equipment.
In addition, for safe sleep implant procedures, the Sangsu Station dental clinic was equipped with patient monitoring devices to check the patient’s condition in real time during the procedure.
If drowsiness remained after the sleep implant procedure through conscious sedation, patients were helped to rest comfortably in a separate recovery room before going home.

Sleep dental treatment using conscious sedation included not only implants but also root canal treatment, wisdom tooth extraction, and cavity treatment, making it possible to receive various treatments comfortably.
If you had difficulty receiving dental treatment because of a strong gag reflex or had a previous experience where local anesthesia did not work well, it was helpful to consider sleep dentistry through conscious sedation.
To allow patients to visit late at night and receive treatment, evening hours were offered every Monday and Wednesday from 9:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.
