Yeongdeungpo Dental Clinic Implant Process Through Precise Diagnosis

Yeongdeungpo Dental Clinic Implant Process

Through Precise Diagnosis

Our bodies naturally age over time, and just like other parts of the body, teeth can also weaken.

There are 28 teeth in total, and teeth can function properly only when each one is in its correct position, so careful dental care was necessary.

However, if even one tooth is lost or missing due to aging, traffic accidents, or other trauma, the balance can be disrupted.

When teeth are lost for various reasons like this, they cannot perform their function properly, so it was advisable to receive appropriate treatment at Yeongdeungpo Dental Clinic.

If even one tooth is lost, chewing force decreases, and food cannot be chewed and swallowed smoothly, which can also affect digestive function.

Also, if a tooth in a visible area is lost, it can cause aesthetic concerns, and smiling naturally can become difficult.

If the empty space left by a missing tooth is left alone for a long time, other teeth can gradually move into that space, causing the dental arch to become misaligned.

That is why, rather than leaving a missing tooth untreated, it was important to visit the dental clinic in a timely manner and receive proper treatment.

In the past, dentures were often used when teeth were lost, but dentures could irritate the gums and had the problem of weak retention, making them easy to move around.

Because of this, many people now consider implant procedures, which have an appearance and structure similar to natural teeth and can restore function.

The implant process was carried out by placing an artificial root into the jawbone at the site of the missing tooth to serve as the tooth root.

Because it was firmly fixed, chewing force could be restored, allowing food intake to become smoother.

Also, because the procedure was performed with a crown that has an appearance similar to a natural tooth, natural aesthetics could be achieved.

However, since the implant process is complex and the appropriate treatment must be carried out according to the patient's oral condition, several factors had to be considered comprehensively before treatment.

Before treatment, it was important to closely assess the condition of the patient's teeth and alveolar bone to determine whether additional procedures such as bone grafting would be necessary.

If the amount of jawbone is insufficient and implant placement is difficult, the implant procedure could be performed after bone grafting.

Since treatment suited to the patient's condition had to be provided in this way, it was better to look for a place with medical staff who have extensive clinical experience with implants.

At the dental clinic located near Yeongdeungpo, the implant procedures were handled by a medical team from Yonsei University College of Dentistry with a PhD in dentistry.

Before treatment, a 3D-CT precise diagnosis was being performed to closely analyze each patient's different oral structure and jawbone condition so that the appropriate treatment could continue.

Implants are important not only for placement but also for post-procedure management, and if care is neglected, problems such as peri-implantitis or prosthetic fracture can occur.

That is why, to prevent possible post-procedure problems and help patients use their artificial teeth for a long time, an implant warranty was issued and careful aftercare support was provided.

There were often patients who hesitated to receive implant treatment because they were worried it might be too painful.

In cases where the psychological burden of dental treatment is high, sleep implant procedures using conscious sedation could be helpful.

Conscious sedation is a method in which midazolam ampoules are administered to induce a semi-sleep state, as if the patient were sleeping, before proceeding with treatment.

Unlike general anesthesia, treatment was performed while normal breathing was possible, and recovery was also relatively faster than with general anesthesia.

Also, after treatment, patients did not remember the discomfort and pain that could occur during the procedure, so they could receive treatment with less worry.

Therefore, if someone usually has a strong fear of dental treatment or has difficulty receiving treatment due to a gag reflex, conscious sedation sleep treatment could be considered.

At Yeongdeungpo Dental Clinic, monitoring equipment was in place to check the patient's breathing, pulse, and other conditions in real time, providing safer treatment.

Also, after the sleep implant procedure using conscious sedation, patients were guided to a recovery room where they could rest comfortably before going home.

To allow patients to visit late in the evening and receive treatment comfortably, evening care was provided every Monday and Wednesday until 9 p.m.
