Seongsandong Dental Clinic Implant Treatment
A procedure with added stability

When we are young, baby teeth fall out and permanent teeth grow in.
Excluding the wisdom teeth, permanent teeth total 28, and if they are
damaged, they do not naturally recover.
Because of this, it was necessary to carefully manage our teeth to prevent
damage, such as brushing thoroughly on a daily basis, but tooth loss could
occur for various reasons.
Teeth could fall out naturally due to aging, and tooth loss could also occur
due to severe cavities, periodontal disease, or trauma such as a traffic accident.

If teeth were lost for any reason, it was important to quickly receive
appropriate treatment at Seongsandong Dental Clinic and fill the empty
space.
When teeth are lost, various inconveniences can arise in daily life. First,
if multiple teeth are lost, chewing power can be significantly reduced.
Due to weakened chewing ability, it can become difficult to properly chew
food, which can lead to problems such as poor digestion.

In addition, speech can become difficult, and sounds may leak through the
empty space, making clear pronunciation harder.
Also, when front teeth or other visible teeth are lost, it can become hard to
smile naturally, leading to aesthetic concerns as well.
If tooth loss is left untreated, neighboring teeth may collapse into the empty
space, causing the dental arch to become misaligned.

As such, losing a tooth can affect not only function but also appearance,
so receiving treatment quickly can be helpful.
Recently, when a tooth is lost, many people have been considering implant
treatment as a procedure to replace it, since it offers an appearance and
function similar to natural teeth.
In the case of implants, the device does not easily wobble because it is not
worn like an appliance; instead, it is directly placed into the jawbone.

Because the fixture is placed into the jawbone and serves a role similar to
the root of a natural tooth, it can provide stability and help restore chewing
function to some extent.
Also, it can be placed without affecting neighboring teeth, and because its
appearance is similar to natural teeth, the aesthetic aspect can also be
improved.
Although implants are a procedure with many advantages, the treatment process
is complex and the procedure is highly difficult, so it is important to
carefully consider treatment.

In particular, depending on the patient’s jawbone condition, additional
procedures such as bone grafting may be required, so it is necessary to find a
clinic that performs a precise diagnosis before treatment.
At Seongsandong Dental Clinic, 3D-CT and similar equipment were used to
carefully examine the inside of the patient’s mouth and establish a placement
plan suitable for each individual.
After a precise diagnosis is made in advance with digital equipment, it is
also good to consider the skill of the medical team in order to establish a
careful treatment plan according to the patient.

At the dental clinic located near Seongsandong, implant treatment was being
performed by medical staff with degrees from Yonsei University College of
Dentistry and a Doctor of Dental Medicine.
The chief director, who has extensive clinical experience, was carrying out
the procedure through a meticulous process while considering each patient’s
oral condition, age, and whether they had systemic diseases.
In addition, for implant treatment with added stability, only verified genuine
domestic and international implant materials were used.

Post-placement care was also important. To reduce the risk of side effects
such as inflammation, Seongsandong Dental Clinic provided thorough aftercare
through the issuance of an implant warranty.
If a person has lost a tooth and needs appropriate treatment but feels a vague
fear of dental care, they may hesitate to proceed.
If treatment has been delayed because the burden or fear of dental care has
been severe, they could consider a sedated implant procedure using conscious
sedation.

In sleep treatment performed with conscious sedation, the patient is guided
into a lightly drowsy state so that treatment can be received in a comfortable
state as if sleeping.
The patient remains able to breathe on their own and retains some level of
consciousness, allowing simple communication with the medical staff during
treatment.
It can also help reduce pain, and because there is little memory of the
treatment process, the psychological burden of treatment can be eased.

At Seongsandong Dental Clinic, to ensure a smooth treatment process,
equipment was in place so that the medical team could monitor the patient’s
condition in real time during the procedure.
In addition, a recovery room had been set up so that patients who underwent
sedated implant treatment with conscious sedation could rest comfortably
after the procedure before going home.
For office workers, evening treatment was offered until 9:00 p.m. every Monday
and Wednesday so they could visit after work and receive care.
