Yeouido Dental Clinic: Implant Treatment Period Depends on the Patient's Condition

Yeouido Dental Clinic Implant Treatment Period

Depends on the Patient's Condition

When a tooth becomes sensitive and throbbing pain occurs,

people often visit the dental clinic thinking it may be a cavity, but if the symptoms are severe,

there are cases where the tooth also has to be extracted.

From middle age, when aging progresses, pain can occur due to gum disease,

and in cases of severe cavities or gum disease,

extraction is performed first, followed by restorative treatment.

Unlike skin tissue, teeth are difficult to recover once damaged,

so if they are lost, various inconveniences can arise.

When a tooth is lost, it becomes difficult to chew and swallow food properly,

which can cause problems with digestion,

and people may end up only looking for soft foods that are easy to chew.

In addition, air leaks through the space where the tooth is missing,

making it difficult to pronounce clearly and causing inconvenience in communicating

with other people.

Furthermore, if tooth loss is left untreated for a long time,

the surrounding teeth may collapse, causing problems such as misalignment of the dental arch.

Because losing a tooth can involve many inconveniences like these,

it is best to receive treatment at the right time at a dental clinic located near Yeouido.

Among the various restorative treatments that can be considered when a tooth is lost,

implants have recently been widely chosen because they can improve both functional and aesthetic aspects.

In the past, dentures were commonly used, but dentures tend to be difficult to stabilize,

so problems such as the appliance shifting when chewing food or speaking could occur.

On the other hand, implant procedures are placed directly into the jawbone,

so there is very little movement of the device and stability can be achieved.

Because they are firmly fixed, the chewing force used to bite and chew food

can be brought to a level similar to that of natural teeth.

Also, because the procedure uses prosthetic teeth with a shape similar to natural teeth,

it can provide a natural aesthetic appearance.

Although implant procedures have these various advantages,

the implant period can be long, and fear and worry about dental treatment can be strong,

leading people to postpone treatment.

If treatment is delayed after tooth loss, the jawbone may be resorbed,

and if there is not enough jawbone, bone grafting must be performed before treatment,

which can further extend the implant period.

If anxiety and fear about treatment are strong in this way,

you may consider sleep implants using conscious sedation.

Sleep implant treatment performed with conscious sedation

is a method in which the patient is induced into a light sleep state while still able to breathe on their own,

and then treatment is carried out.

After waking up, the treatment process and any discomfort that may have occurred during treatment

are almost not remembered, so treatment can be received more comfortably.

It is also used for high-difficulty procedures such as multiple implant placements and bone grafting,

helping to reduce the burden on patients.

Conscious sedation is applied not only to implants,

but also to various dental treatments such as wisdom tooth extraction, root canal treatment, prosthetic treatment,

and cavity treatment.

For this reason, if you need to undergo a high-difficulty procedure or usually feel a lot of burden about dental treatment,

you may consider sleep dentistry using conscious sedation.

To help patients receive treatment with peace of mind,

Yeouido Dental Clinic is equipped with devices that can monitor the patient's condition in real time during the procedure.

In addition, a recovery room has been prepared so that patients can 충분히 recover and go home after sleep implant treatment performed with conscious sedation.

For a stable conscious-sedation sleep implant procedure,

it is best to find a place where medical staff with extensive clinical experience are present.

At Yeouido Dental Clinic, dentists from Yonsei University College of Dentistry,

including a Doctor of Dental Medicine, provide consultations, implants, and aftercare based on years of clinical experience.

In the case of implants, it is important to place them at the proper location, direction, and angle,

and if they are not placed correctly, the implant can easily become loose.

Therefore, digital equipment such as 3D-CT is used to closely examine the oral condition

and the condition of the jawbone, and a precise treatment plan is established according to the patient's condition.

Treatment is carried out while carefully considering the precision diagnosis results

and the patient's overall health condition, which can further increase satisfaction.

In the case of implant procedures, management after placement is also important,

because if care is not properly maintained, inflammation may occur in the gums

or problems may arise with the prosthetic teeth.

To reduce the risk of such side effects, an implant warranty certificate is issued,

and follow-up care is provided through regular checkups.

Night consultations are available every Monday and Wednesday until 9 p.m.,

so you can visit later in the evening and receive treatment comfortably.
