To Achieve Both Function and Aesthetics with Implant Placement at Sangam Dental Clinic

Implant placement at Sangam Dental Clinic

To achieve both function and aesthetics

In the past, it was commonly thought that tooth loss was a problem mainly experienced by middle-aged and older adults, but recently, the number of younger patients has also been steadily increasing.

Usually, teeth are lost due to aging, but there have also been cases of loss from trauma caused by various sports activities and unavoidable accidents.

In addition, teeth can be lost due to periodontal disease caused by neglecting daily oral care, and there were also cases where permanent teeth were congenitally missing.

If teeth have been lost for various reasons like this, it is best to visit Sangam Dental Clinic promptly and restore function through appropriate treatment.

The problem of missing teeth can cause various inconveniences throughout life. First, if multiple teeth are lost, chewing ability can be significantly reduced.

When chewing ability, which helps break food into smaller pieces, becomes weaker, it becomes difficult to eat food properly, which can lead to indigestion.

In addition, nutritional imbalance may occur because it becomes difficult to consume a well-balanced diet, and people may rely mainly on the teeth on the opposite side of the missing teeth, placing strain on the jaw joint as well.

If the empty space is left for a long period, it can also negatively affect surrounding teeth, causing the overall alignment of the teeth to change and the bite to collapse.

Furthermore, the jawbone gradually becomes resorbed, which can make future treatment more complicated or cause aesthetic problems such as changes in facial balance.

Since tooth loss can lead to many problems, it is important to replace the function of natural teeth through an appropriate method.

In situations like this, implant placement has recently been used to restore functionality and aesthetics similar to the original tooth in the area where the tooth has been lost.

Implant placement is a method in which an artificial root is placed into the jawbone at the site of the missing tooth and firmly fixed, after which a prosthetic tooth is placed on top to help restore both function and appearance.

This method goes through osseointegration, allowing for a strong fixation, and as a result, chewing ability can be restored to a level similar to that of natural teeth.

In addition, the prosthetic used for implant placement has a shape and color similar to the original tooth, so the aesthetic aspect can also be restored.

However, since this is a highly advanced procedure that must fully consider each person's oral characteristics, it is necessary to find a clinic with experienced medical staff.

If artificial teeth are placed indiscriminately without fully considering the individual's oral condition, the implant may become dislodged.

For this reason, Sangam Dental Clinic uses digital equipment such as 3D-CT to carefully diagnose the internal condition of the patient's oral cavity before proceeding.

While an accurate diagnosis is important, the skill of the medical staff must also be carefully checked in order to provide the appropriate treatment for each patient based on the results.

At the dental clinic near Sangam, a Yonsei University-trained doctor of dental medicine personally performs the procedure to achieve highly satisfying implant placement results.

Before the procedure, an appropriate treatment plan is established through 충분한 discussions with the patient, and the depth and angle of the artificial tooth placement are carefully adjusted throughout the process.

In addition, to reduce concerns about possible future side effects after the procedure, an implant warranty is issued and aftercare is provided through a systematic process.

Furthermore, Sangam Dental Clinic uses only genuine implant materials whose quality and stability have been verified, allowing patients to receive treatment with greater peace of mind.

However, even when dental treatment is needed, some people often postpone the procedure because of vague fear and anxiety about going to the dentist.

If you are hesitating because of such fear of dental treatment, you can receive help through sedation treatment using conscious sedation.

Sleep implant treatment performed with conscious sedation induces the patient into a lightly asleep state so that the procedure can be received comfortably, as if sleeping and waking up normally.

Because some level of consciousness is maintained, the patient can respond to simple communication and instructions from the medical staff, making the procedure more efficient.

Even without wearing a separate breathing assistance device, the patient can breathe spontaneously, and the recovery speed is relatively faster than with general anesthesia.

At Sangam Dental Clinic, to carry out highly stable sedation treatment with conscious sedation, the staff monitors the lightly asleep state in real time through patient monitoring equipment.

Based on the patient’s lightly asleep state, blood pressure, pulse, and overall physical condition observed in real time, the appropriate amount of sedative medication is adjusted.

Even so, after the conscious-sedation sleep implant procedure is completed, most patients do not retain memories of the process due to the memory-blanking effect, which can help them overcome their fear.
