Make Dental Clinic is here to help keep your smile healthy and beautiful for a long time.
| 1. Why is tooth reduction necessary? |
Hello, I’m Director Ahn Young-seok of Make Dental Clinic.
Veneers may look like a simple procedure at first glance,
but they are actually very delicate work.
That is because they involve the process of “tooth reduction,”
which means shaping a portion of the tooth surface.
The reason is that if the veneer film is attached directly,
the thickness may look unnatural or
the boundary with the gums may appear awkward.
Can’t it be done without reduction?
Many people ask this question.
Of course, in some cases it can be done without reduction,
but in most cases, a minimal reduction
results in a much more natural and hygienic outcome.
In particular, the front teeth that show when you smile can
create a much softer and more harmonious impression
even with only a small amount of reduction, so a medical evaluation is necessary.

| 2. How much tooth reduction is done? |
It is literally the process of shaving the tooth surface very thinly,
but many people wonder exactly how thin “thinly” is.
In general, it is done within the range of 0.3 mm to 0.7 mm,
and it varies slightly depending on the shape of each tooth, the bite condition, and the color.
For example, if the teeth are significantly protruded,
the reduction range may be somewhat wider,
but at the Sinnohyeon Station dental clinic, we also strive to keep this to a minimum.
During the initial consultation, we precisely measure the reduction range
through a 3D scan,
and after 충분한 상담 we establish an accurate plan.
In this way, deciding the reduction range is not simply a matter of
whether to do a lot or a little,
but a process of balancing aesthetic completion and tooth health.
Veneers can turn out very differently depending on who performs them and how.
| 3. What problems can occur with excessive reduction? |
If too much reduction is performed,
various discomforts can occur.
A representative example is sensitivity.
This is because when a large amount of enamel is lost,
the inner dentin becomes exposed
and the tooth becomes sensitive to temperature changes.
In more severe cases, it can even lead to root canal treatment,
and the retention of the veneer can also decrease.
At the Sinnohyeon Station dental clinic, we carry out thorough pre-analysis and consultation
to prevent these discomforts.
One patient who visited us in the past had already experienced excessive reduction at another hospital
and was worried, but since we approach treatment with a focus on preserving teeth,
they were able to receive treatment with confidence.

Tooth reduction is performed precisely, only as much as is truly necessary.
| 4. Then, can it be minimized? |
Ultimately, reducing the amount of reduction depends on the technical capability of the clinic system.
Veneers performed without precise diagnosis,
relying only on the dentist’s intuition and experience,
inevitably lead to an excessive reduction range.
At the Sinnohyeon Station dental clinic, we make it a principle to minimize tooth reduction whenever possible.
To do this, we first use a 3D digital scanner to
scan the face and oral cavity in 3D,
and obtain the information needed for treatment based on the scanned data.
Because diagnosis is made on a data-driven basis,
the amount of reduction can be lowered,
and by checking the changes to the teeth in advance through a virtual simulation before treatment,
unnecessary reduction can be prevented beforehand.
Ultimately, our goal is to create beautiful results while preserving as much of the tooth as possible.
Make Dental Clinic considers not only the result, but also satisfaction with the process.
| 5. What is the principle of the 3D digital scanner? |
It is a device that greatly increases the accuracy of veneer treatment with a system that systematically connects diagnosis, design, and procedure.
It analyzes the shape of the teeth three-dimensionally,
and can visualize oral data in real time.
Compared with conventional methods, it is much faster and more precise,
with a lower margin of error.
So even without unnecessary reduction,
it becomes possible to select only the necessary areas
for treatment, which greatly helps preserve the teeth.
If taking impressions used to be uncomfortable,
now many people are satisfied because diagnosis and treatment can be done with scanner imaging alone.

| 6. Measurements down to the 0.001 mm decimal place. |
Also, at the Sinnohyeon Station dental clinic, we measure down to 0.001 mm,
and customized prosthetic design is carried out by considering the shape of the teeth and jaw arch, as well as the bite relationship.
In addition, 3D Smile Preview is a technology that lets you virtually simulate the finished result before the procedure.
Through this technology, we strengthen communication with patients even more.
When you say, “When I smile, this tooth looks too protruded,”
we can immediately show you the image of how it will soon change through Smile Preview.
So patients can check the post-treatment appearance in advance,
and I can create a more precise treatment plan,
which is why many people feel reassured and decide to proceed with treatment through this process.
Being able to anticipate the result of the procedure
can provide psychological stability beyond simple convenience.
Healthy and beautiful for a long time, Make Dental Clinic also considers the lifespan of veneers.
| 7. We put tooth health first. |
Sinnohyeon Station Dental Clinic considers not only external beauty
but also functional health.
That is why we always prioritize “preservation.”
Rather than sacrificing teeth for beauty,
we value creating the most appropriate result within a healthy range.
The reason patients trust us is that
we do not perform unnecessary procedures
and recommend only the treatments that are truly needed.
If another treatment would be more effective than veneers,
we also guide patients accordingly.
Through this sincere consultation,
we provide great satisfaction not only to first-time patients
but also to returning patients,
and above all, because once a tooth is reduced it cannot be restored,
I also make decisions carefully after thorough consideration.

Veneers require careful decision-making because they must take into account
the shape, position, and color of the teeth,
as well as overall oral health.

after fully understanding the patient’s concerns,
we recommend treatment in the most appropriate direction.
