3 Things to Check Before Implant Surgery in Gangdong-gu

Are you feeling nervous before surgery???

Hello!

I’m Lee Juri, the chief director of Seoul Bardi Dental Clinic.

From the clinic’s perspective, we perform surgery on many patients.

But for patients, surgery may be a once-in-a-lifetime event.

Even if most of your teeth have been replaced with implants,

it’s natural to feel nervous before every surgery.

Today, I’d like to guide you through a pre-surgery checklist that can reduce unnecessary worry for patients

and help improve treatment outcomes.

Please be sure to tell us about any systemic health conditions!!

Did you tell us before surgery???

If you take any regular medication,

you must!!!! tell us.

In particular, some patients receive injections because of knee or back problems.

Bringing the medication package can be helpful.

These days, medication instructions are written like this.

Recently, there was also a patient who said it was a back medicine and asked whether it had nothing to do with the dental clinic.

But it turned out....

it was a medication related to osteoporosis, so it needed to be stopped.

If handled incorrectly, the surgery could have failed

and there could have been a risk of bone necrosis.

We will judge whether it affects the surgery.

We would also appreciate it if you let us know even about nutritional supplements.

Also, even on the day of surgery, please let us know if you are not feeling well!

Implant surgery is a surgical procedure.

Pre-surgery preparation and your condition can greatly affect the outcome.

If you have the flu...

or a fever, for example, you need to let us know.

Have you eaten?

Because of nervousness about surgery,

many people say they couldn’t eat anything.

If you are too hungry, you may feel dizzy during the procedure,

and you may end up taking medicine on an empty stomach.

For that reason, a light meal is recommended.

241014 Surgery is possible regardless of age as long as the bone condition is good.

If you are very nervous, soft foods such as porridge or bananas are good.

Also, please brush your teeth and come in on the day of surgery.

Keeping the inside of your mouth clean

can greatly reduce the risk of infection.

For this reason, scaling is sometimes done before surgery.

240425 If debris gets stuck in the mouth, the risk of infection increases.

Comfortable clothing is best!

Even if the surgery itself is short,

including recovery time, you will stay at the clinic for more than 1 to 2 hours,

so comfortable clothing and shoes are recommended.

If you wear uncomfortable clothes and shoes,

you’ll keep noticing them.

When your body feels comfortable,

you may also feel more at ease mentally,

so comfortable clothing is recommended.

For older patients,

it is also good to come with a guardian.

This is because some people feel dizzy after surgery due to nervousness.

We always analyze carefully.

Many people feel anxious before surgery,

but for Gangdong-gu implants, the medical staff is always prepared.

We do simulations,

and we also prepare countermeasures in case problems arise.

I understand how nervous you may feel...

If you are nervous,

we get nervous too.

If you trust the medical staff and proceed with a relaxed mind,

it can lead to good results.

1. Tell us about any medication you are taking and let us know about your systemic health conditions

2. Light meal

3. Comfortable clothing

Among these three, whether you are taking medication is the most important.

If you prepare well for just this,

a successful surgery is possible.

Before Gangdong-gu implant surgery, please be sure to check today’s guide,

and we hope you receive comfortable and safe treatment.

Thank you.
