Hello, this is S-Plant Dental Hospital.

When considering an implant, the first thing that comes to mind is usually the ‘cost.’ However, an implant is not a treatment that can be decided based on price alone. If the wrong choice is made, it may lead to additional expenses or even the need for reoperation.

At S-Plant Dental Hospital, trusted in Apgujeong, Cheongdam, and Hakdong Intersection, we emphasize that when deciding on implant treatment, you should consider not just price comparisons, but the overall safety and success rate of the treatment, the skill of the medical team, and the hospital’s follow-up care system. In this article, we will look at the factors that are more important than cost for those preparing for implant surgery.

  1. The ‘experience of the medical team’ that determines implant success

An implant is not a simple procedure, but a treatment that requires skilled technique and know-how. In particular, if the bone condition or gum health is poor, precise diagnosis and procedure are essential. S-Plant Dental Hospital provides patient-tailored implant treatment through collaboration between oral and maxillofacial surgery specialists and prosthodontic specialists with university-hospital-level training. Rather than choosing based on price alone, you should definitely check whether there is a medical team with extensive clinical experience.

  1. The difference made by digital equipment and advanced technology

To increase implant success rates and reduce side effects, precise diagnosis is essential. At S-Plant Dental Hospital, we closely analyze each patient’s oral condition using 3D CT, a digital intraoral scanner (Medit i700), and more. This allows us to establish a more accurate surgical plan and makes digital navigation implant surgery possible, minimizing gum incision. Implant procedures performed using outdated methods solely to reduce cost may have lower accuracy and a higher risk of failure.

  1. The importance of follow-up care and the hospital’s ongoing management system

After an implant procedure, management becomes even more important. If it is not properly maintained, the risk of complications such as peri-implantitis increases. S-Plant Dental Hospital operates a regular follow-up care system and provides customized maintenance programs according to each patient’s condition.

  1. The importance of aftercare and maintenance

Many people choose a low-cost implant, only to later encounter problems and need implant reoperation. If the implant is placed in the wrong position or does not properly integrate with the bone, re-treatment may eventually be necessary. Since an implant is meant to be used for a long time once placed, it is most important to proceed safely from the beginning.

  1. Verifying the medical team’s skill

All of the prosthodontics doctors at S-Plant Dental Hospital hold PhDs in dentistry from Seoul National University. Through 1:1 customized care and responsible treatment by the attending doctor, we carry out treatment with a detailed and accurate treatment plan. In addition, after 충분한 상담 with the patient, we carefully consider the patient’s situation, oral condition, and more to provide safe and prompt treatment.

  1. The hospital’s 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 lead doctors with PhDs in dentistry from Seoul National University have strengthened the completeness of treatment and their expertise. In addition, by having a dedicated implant surgery room, we provide an environment where patients can focus on surgery with peace of mind.

At S-Plant Dental Hospital, the rich experience and know-how of our six lead doctors help ensure stable treatment outcomes. Through regular checkups, we reduce problems that may occur after surgery and provide follow-up care so that implants can be used for a long time.

  1. The stability of implant materials

At S-Plant Dental Hospital, we use only implant materials whose safety has been verified worldwide. We use only genuine, certified implants from both domestic and international brands such as Osstem, Dentium, MegaGen, and Straumann.

If non-genuine products are actually used during implant surgery and are forcibly fitted, safety and durability cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, you should carefully check whether genuine implant materials are being used before and after surgery before proceeding with the implant.

To ensure stable implant placement, S-Plant Dental Hospital uses a digital guided implant method that performs a simulated surgery in advance by checking the position of the implant and prosthesis before surgery in order to determine the proper angle, depth, and location. Using an implant guide minimizes the incision area and has the advantages of faster recovery and a lower risk of bleeding and inflammation.
