Yeouinaru Station Dental Clinic Implant Treatment
Through the Right Plan

Due to a variety of causes, teeth can be lost, and tooth loss was not a problem that occurred only in old age.
In your 20s, you can also lose teeth. If you lead an active lifestyle, teeth can fall out due to exercise or accidents.
When teeth are lost for these various reasons, it can cause significant inconvenience in daily life.

If tooth loss is left untreated, chewing function deteriorates, making meals difficult, and problems can also arise during digestion.
In addition, adjacent teeth move into the empty space, which can lead to misaligned teeth or malocclusion.
Moreover, if tooth loss is left untreated for a long time, the alveolar bone may be resorbed, or aesthetics may worsen.

Because tooth loss can cause various problems, it is important to receive appropriate restorative treatment at the Yeouinaru Station Dental Clinic.
Treatments that can be considered when a tooth is lost include dentures, bridges, and implants, and in the past, dentures were widely used.
However, with dentures, wearing them for a long time can cause the gums to swell, and they can be inconvenient because their chewing strength is relatively weak.

For this reason, implants, which involve placing a fixture into the empty space left by the missing tooth and connecting a prosthetic tooth similar in appearance to a natural tooth, are now often considered.
Because the treatment is carried out by directly placing the fixture into the jawbone, it can provide strong fixation and chewing power.
Also, in the case of implant treatment, prosthetics with colors and shapes nearly identical to natural teeth are used, so aesthetics can also be improved.

In this way, implants are similar to natural teeth in both functional and aesthetic aspects, and they can be placed without damaging neighboring teeth.
However, because implant procedures involve direct placement into the jawbone, the condition of the gums is important. Therefore, the condition of the gums had to be carefully checked before treatment.
If the jawbone is insufficient for various reasons, bone grafting can be performed to fill in the lacking jawbone before implant placement.

After the process of filling the jawbone, there must be a period for osseointegration and recovery, so when bone grafting is performed, the overall implant treatment period can be extended.
As such, in the case of implant procedures, it is important to carefully analyze the condition of the teeth and jawbone and then establish a treatment plan accordingly.
Also, in order to establish the right treatment plan and proceed with a precise procedure, it is good to check the medical staff's clinical experience and skill.

At the dental clinic located near Yeouinaru Station, implant procedures were being performed by medical staff who graduated from Yonsei University College of Dentistry and hold a Doctor of Dental Medicine degree.
To carry out precise treatment, before treatment they were carefully assessing the patient's dental condition using 3D-CT equipment and establishing a treatment plan.
Also, to ensure that the implant could be used for a long time after placement, they were issuing an implant warranty and helping with follow-up care through regular checkups.

However, although treatment was needed because of tooth loss, there were often cases where people delayed treatment due to a vague fear of dental procedures.
If someone was hesitant to receive treatment because of such psychological 부담, they could consider sleep implant procedures using conscious sedation.
Conscious sedation refers to a method in which the patient is guided into a comfortable, light sleep-like state, as if sleeping, before treatment is performed.

The treatment was carried out while the patient remained able to breathe spontaneously, and simple communication with the medical staff was also possible.
Also, after regaining consciousness, the patient would remember almost none of the unpleasant sensations that could occur during the treatment process, so treatment could be received comfortably.
Because it was also used for high-difficulty treatments such as cases requiring many implants or bone grafting, it could reduce the patient's burden.

In addition, the Yeouinaru Station Dental Clinic was equipped with monitoring devices that could check the patient's condition in real time during treatment, such as breathing and pulse.
After the sleep implant procedure performed with conscious sedation, they had also set up a recovery room so that patients could rest for a while before going home.
Because nighttime treatment was offered until 9 p.m. every Monday and Wednesday, patients could visit in the late evening for treatment.
