Mapogu Office Station Dental Clinic Implant Treatment
In a Sedated State

Among the hard parts of the body, teeth can be exposed to various oral diseases if factors such as frequent drinking and smoking, or lack of oral hygiene management, are present.
Above all, because permanent teeth do not naturally recover again if they are damaged or lost for various reasons, they need to be carefully maintained on a regular basis.
Even if you brush carefully every day, you can still lose natural teeth due to natural aging, unexpected traffic accidents, trauma, and other causes.

Most people tend to visit the dentist when there is pain after tooth loss or when there is a problem visible to the naked eye, but if that is not the case, they often leave it untreated.
If you have lost a tooth for various reasons, it was helpful to visit a dental clinic near Mapo-gu Office Station and receive treatment before it leads to a bigger problem.
If the missing area is left untreated for a long time, it becomes difficult to chew various foods properly, which can lead to digestive problems.

In addition, when communicating with others, unclear pronunciation can cause inconvenience, and changes in facial shape may occur.
Furthermore, the jawbone at the missing site gradually becomes resorbed, and even if you later want treatment, it may have to be performed through a more advanced procedure.
If you are experiencing psychological discomfort because you cannot chew properly or because your facial shape has changed, you should receive treatment as soon as possible and replace the function of the natural tooth.

Recently, implant treatment, which can replace both the function and aesthetics of natural teeth, has been increasingly chosen regardless of age.
An implant is an excellent method that replaces the function of a natural tooth by placing an artificial tooth root made of titanium into the jawbone and then attaching a prosthetic crown on top of it.
Unlike dentures and bridges, which were commonly chosen in the past, it has the advantage of not easily wobbling during use or negatively affecting neighboring teeth.

Because implant treatment independently places an artificial tooth directly into the jawbone, it can achieve strong fixation and does not feel foreign, allowing for excellent comfort.
In addition, because it has a shape and color that do not feel out of place with surrounding teeth, it is also a highly satisfying method in terms of aesthetics.
However, it is a high-difficulty procedure that must be carried out after comprehensively considering various factors such as the location of the missing tooth and the current condition of the jawbone.

Therefore, it is best to visit a dental clinic that performs implant treatment with a plan suited to the patient’s oral condition and jawbone condition based on extensive clinical experience.
At the Mapogu Office Station Dental Clinic, medical staff with degrees from Yonsei University College of Dentistry and a Doctor of Dental Medicine carried out precise diagnosis before performing artificial tooth placement.
Based on their many clinical implant cases, the medical staff established an appropriate plan after sufficient discussion with patients.

In addition, the Mapogu Office Station Dental Clinic was equipped with advanced diagnostic devices such as 3D-CT to carefully identify each patient’s jawbone condition, insertion angle, and position.
Because the oral structure that is difficult for the medical staff to identify with the naked eye is confirmed and diagnosed three-dimensionally, side effects can be reduced and procedure time shortened.
If the diagnostic results show that the jawbone condition is poor, bone grafting can be performed first to supplement the insufficient amount of alveolar bone using various graft materials.

The artificial tooth material to be placed later also uses only excellent, clinically proven genuine implant materials, so a long prosthetic lifespan can be expected.
However, even if implant treatment ends with excellent results, if proper care is not provided after placement, the likelihood of inflammation in the gums increases.
This inflammation can spread beyond the gums to the surrounding bone, and it may act as a factor that causes the artificial tooth to wobble and eventually fall out.

At the Mapogu Office Station Dental Clinic, to prevent various side effects such as peri-implantitis in advance, regular aftercare is provided through a treatment warranty system.
However, many people also sometimes delay the proper timing because of pain and bleeding that may occur during dental procedures.
If dental fear causes you to leave a tooth problem untreated for a long time, you can consider sleep implant treatment using conscious sedation.

Unlike general anesthesia, conscious sedation is a method in which the patient is guided into a drowsy state in which they can breathe on their own without wearing a breathing device, and then the procedure is performed.
At the Mapogu Office Station Dental Clinic, patient monitoring equipment is used to track blood pressure, pulse, and the drowsy state in real time, continuing safe conscious sedation sleep treatment.
During the procedure, you can respond to simple communication and instructions from the medical staff, but after the procedure is over, you do not retain memories of the process, which can help overcome dental fear.
