What Is the Difference Between a Dental Clinic and a Dental Hospital?!

Hello. This is Splant Dental Hospital.

Among the dental practices commonly seen nearby, most are dental clinics. However, along with why our facility is called Splant Dental Hospital, we will explain the differences between a dental clinic and a dental hospital.

Dental Clinic VS Dental Hospital

  1. Differences in opening and establishment methods

A dental clinic can be opened simply by reporting to the public health center, but a dental hospital can be established only after approval if it meets government evaluation standards. Because a dental hospital must pass government evaluations across overall areas such as convenience facilities and parking, hygiene and infection control, and building codes, it has the advantage of higher safety.

  1. Specialized treatment

Dental clinics are not divided by department, but dental hospitals have each field more clearly separated, and specialists in departments such as conservative dentistry, pediatric dentistry, oral surgery, and prosthodontics often provide specialized treatment for each area.

  1. Number of beds

Even if a dental clinic has surgical specialties, it only needs to have beds when performing surgeries under general anesthesia, but a dental hospital must have both an operating room and a recovery room. In addition, all instruments and laundry must be handled with strict hygiene standards.

In addition, parking facilities and barrier-free amenities for patients to use the dental hospital without inconvenience must be basically in place. There are many such establishment standards, and a dental hospital can be established only when all requirements are met.

In the case of dental treatment, since continuous care is often necessary, it is more important than anything else to choose a dental clinic that you can keep visiting for a long time. Splant Dental Hospital has been providing treatment in one place for 15 years through a one-on-one primary doctor system led by PhD-level dentists for consultation, surgery, prosthetics, and management. In addition, through advanced medical equipment and a differentiated system, we provide customized care for each patient.

  1. Verifying the medical team’s expertise

At Splant Dental Hospital, all of our prosthodontic medical staff hold PhDs in dentistry from Seoul National University, and treatment is carried out with one-on-one customized care and responsible treatment by the attending physician, based on detailed and accurate treatment plans. In addition, after sufficient consultation with the patient, we carefully consider the patient’s condition, oral status, and other factors to provide safe and prompt care.

  1. Hospital stability

The stability of a dental hospital is one of the most important factors for patients. Our hospital has proven its safety through 16 years of accident-free operation. In particular, the six-chief-physician system, all of whom hold PhDs in dentistry from Seoul National University, has enhanced both treatment quality and expertise. In addition, by having a dedicated implant operating room, we provide an environment where patients can feel at ease and focus only on the procedure.

At Splant Dental Hospital, the rich experience and know-how of our six chief physicians help ensure stable treatment outcomes, and through regular checkups we reduce potential issues that may arise after surgery and help you use your implants for a long time through follow-up care.

  1. Stability of implant materials

At Splant Dental Hospital, we use only implant materials whose safety has been proven around the world. We use only genuine, certified implants from domestic and overseas brands such as Osstem, Dentium, Megagen, and Straumann.

If non-genuine materials are actually used during implant surgery and forced into place, their safety and durability cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, you should carefully check whether genuine implant materials are being used before and after surgery, and then proceed with the implant treatment.

At Splant Dental Hospital, we use a digital guided implant method that performs a simulated surgery by checking the positions of the implant and prosthesis in advance before surgery, in order to select the proper angle, depth, and location for stable implant placement. Using the implant guide minimizes the incision area and has the advantages of faster recovery and a lower risk of bleeding and inflammation.

For sinus lift surgery to proceed smoothly without complications, it is important to receive treatment from an experienced medical team. If the medical team lacks know-how or technical skill, sinus perforation may occur, or you may need implant retreatment, so you must carefully evaluate and receive treatment with caution. At Splant Dental Hospital, based on our accumulated experience with long-term implant prognosis, we can safely perform even highly difficult procedures.
