Hello.
Beyond creating a beautiful first impression,
we are The Square Dental Clinic,
focused on restoring our patients’ quality of life
and confidence.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that straight, white front teeth are something everyone dreams of.
You may look for information because you want to smile confidently and beautifully, but...

Orthodontic treatment can be burdensome in terms of cost and time,
while the thought of having your teeth reduced for veneers may also concern you.
In this case, visiting a Minish dental hospital, which focuses primarily on restoring teeth, may be a good option.

Tips for choosing a Minish dental hospital
We will take an in-depth look at these three topics. :)


Minish Dental Hospital,
What is the concept of “Minish,” which preserves natural teeth?
The Minish treatment method is basically similar to veneers.

It improves the shape and form of teeth by attaching a bonding material to their surface.
Some people understand Minish simply as a cosmetic procedure intended to make teeth whiter and more attractive.
The ultimate top priority of Minish, however,
is “tooth restoration”—restoring the function of damaged teeth or teeth with naturally imperfect shapes in a healthy manner.
A restoration made from a material with properties most similar to those of natural teeth is bonded to the damaged tooth
so that it can function like the original tooth.

Although advances in technology have made no-prep veneers possible,
in reality, many cases require reducing approximately 0.5 mm of tooth structure.

If a ceramic plate is added over an existing uneven or slightly protruding tooth,
that tooth may appear even more prominent, making some reduction unavoidable.
An appropriate amount of tooth reduction can improve bonding strength and aesthetics,
but if too much is removed,
the enamel that protects the tooth may be damaged, potentially causing side effects such as sensitivity or the need for root canal treatment.

Minish, on the other hand, involves either not reducing the tooth at all
or, when reshaping is necessary, only minimally smoothing the surface by 0.1 mm or less.
In other words, it can be described as a treatment that preserves natural teeth as much as possible
while providing strength and translucency that are difficult to distinguish from those of the original teeth.

Minish Dental Hospital,
What is the Minish treatment process?
You may also be wondering exactly how Minish treatment is performed.
To help you understand, we will explain it based on our clinic’s system.

🦷 Comprehensive Examination & Design
We take X-rays and intraoral photographs, and conduct one-on-one consultations to listen carefully to each patient’s concerns.
We then perform a digital scan of the teeth and take facial photographs,
before developing a design model through discussion with the patient.

🦷 Minish Fabrication
When necessary, the tooth surfaces are thoroughly prepared through gum care or anesthesia, and the teeth are scanned with a digital scanner.
Based on this,
Minish fabrication begins using a CAD program and CAM milling equipment.
Hand trimming and coloring, in which a professional dental technician personally refines the restoration, are also essential.

🦷 Minish Bonding
After the design is checked one final time, the patient’s natural teeth and the Minish restorations are joined together.
Once the Minish restorations are bonded, fine adjustments are made at the nanoscale.
Finally, we explain in detail how to care for the Minish restorations.
The entire process takes approximately one to two weeks.

Minish Dental Hospital,
How can you choose a dental clinic without failure?
Because Minish is a highly demanding procedure involving restorations thinner than a strand of hair,
you should choose a Minish dental hospital with infrastructure specialized in Minish treatment and experienced medical professionals on staff.

As mentioned above,
only medical professionals capable of implementing cutting-edge systems and ultra-precise bonding techniques
can reduce concerns about complications such as secondary cavities or inflammation and provide results that feel comfortable, like your own teeth.

Therefore, when choosing a Minish dental hospital,
we recommend selecting one with a specialist in comprehensive dentistry who can restore the teeth while preserving the health and aesthetics of the natural teeth,
as well as an orthodontic specialist who can move and align the teeth into optimal positions to minimize the amount of tooth reduction.
