Saetgang Station Dental Clinic Implant Treatment
Depending on the Patient’s Condition

Our teeth are one of the parts of the body that play various roles in daily life, so it is important to take careful care of them at all times.
When baby teeth fall out and permanent teeth come in, these permanent teeth are meant to be used for life, so it is even more important to care for them carefully.
However, natural teeth can be lost for various reasons, including severe cavities, sudden accidents, and aging.

When teeth are lost like this, it can have a major impact on daily life, so it is advisable to receive appropriate treatment at Saetgang Station Dental Clinic.
First, chewing ability may decrease, making it difficult to chew food properly, and swallowing without chewing thoroughly can also lead to digestive problems.
There may also be aesthetic concerns. If a tooth in a visible area falls out, it can become difficult to smile naturally, which may cause other problems.

In addition, if tooth loss is left untreated for a long time, the surrounding teeth may tilt into the empty space, causing the alignment of the teeth to become distorted.
Because tooth loss can lead to a variety of problems, it is better not to delay treatment and to receive care at the right time.
There are various treatments used to replace missing teeth, and representative options include implants, dentures, and bridges.

In the past, dentures were commonly used, but dentures tend to have weak retention, which made it inconvenient because the device could come loose easily.
For this reason, more people have recently been considering implant procedures, which provide strong stability and have an appearance similar to natural teeth.
In an implant procedure, treatment proceeds by placing an artificial root into the jawbone at the site where the tooth was lost, and then connecting it to the prosthetic using an abutment.

Because strong fixation can be secured, chewing function can be restored to a level that is almost similar to natural teeth.
In addition, aesthetics can also be improved, since prosthetics with an appearance very similar to natural teeth are used, allowing for aesthetic benefits as well.
However, in the case of implant procedures, the appropriate treatment method must be applied depending on the patient’s dental condition, so several factors need to be considered before placement.

Before implant placement, it is important to establish a treatment plan by carefully understanding the patient’s dental condition and alveolar bone condition through a precise pre-examination.
In addition, to continue careful treatment based on a detailed diagnosis and plan, it is advisable to choose a clinic where experienced medical staff are available.
Furthermore, while proper placement is important in implant procedures, a clinic that provides attentive post-treatment care should be chosen to reduce the risk of complications that may arise after treatment.

At a dental clinic located near Saetgang Station, implant procedures were being performed by medical staff with doctorates in dentistry who graduated from Yonsei University College of Dentistry.
The medical staff, with extensive clinical experience, carefully assessed the patient’s age, oral condition, and overall health to continue precise treatment.
In particular, 3D-CT precision diagnostics were being performed to closely assess the inside of the patient’s mouth and the location of nerves in order to establish an appropriate placement plan.

In addition, after implant procedures, an implant warranty certificate was issued, and careful follow-up care was provided through regular checkups.
If an implant procedure is needed, treatment may be delayed due to fear of pain that may occur during the process.
In cases where fear or anxiety about dental treatment is severe, sleep implant treatment using conscious sedation can be considered.

Sleep implant treatment performed under conscious sedation refers to a method that allows patients to receive treatment comfortably in a lightly sedated state.
Treatment is carried out while the patient is in a lightly sedated state and able to breathe on their own, and after consciousness returns, they remember very little of the treatment process, which can help reduce fear.
Conscious sedation is also applied not only to implant procedures but also to wisdom tooth extractions, cavity treatment, and more, allowing a variety of treatments to be received more comfortably.

At Saetgang Station Dental Clinic, patient monitoring equipment was in place so that the medical staff could check the patient’s condition in real time during the procedure and continue treatment smoothly.
In addition, if a slight drowsy feeling remained after a sleep implant procedure under conscious sedation, patients could move to the recovery room, rest comfortably, and then go home.
Night care was being provided until 9 p.m. every Monday and Wednesday, so patients could visit in the evening and receive treatment.
