Worried About Large, Discolored Front Teeth? I Solved It with Gangnam Laminates [+Treatment Case Included]

| 1. Uncomfortable Front Teeth, Finally Starting the Consultation |

Hello, I’m Lee Young-seok, director of Make Dental Clinic.

My front teeth are too big and protrude too much

so only my teeth show whenever I smile

Starting with these words,

one patient came to us

and shared their concern.

Because of especially large front teeth and yellowish discoloration,

they felt uncomfortable every time they smiled, and as a result

they said it was hard to smile in front of other people.

What stood out most was when they said they no longer

wanted to be afraid of smiling.

After discussing several options, we decided to proceed with

Gangnam laminates, which can create the natural and beautiful

front teeth the patient wanted.

Gangnam laminates are a treatment that improves the shape

and color of teeth by attaching a thin ceramic plate to the front surface.

Especially for highly visible areas like the front teeth,

delicate design and precise color adjustment are very important,

so this can be a very good choice.

Because it can express a shape and color that look natural,

like the original teeth, while removing very little tooth structure,

we can create a bright smile that also suits the patient’s skin tone.

We achieve the most satisfying results through sufficient communication with each patient.

First, the initial step for the procedure

begins with an examination.

We check the overall condition of the teeth through a panoramic X-ray,

identify the gum condition and tooth alignment,

and examine even the parts that are not visible.

We also carefully analyze the size, shape, and color of the front teeth,

and based on this, we work with the patient to find the front-tooth design

that suits them best.

Rather than simply creating pretty teeth,

it was important to create harmony that blends well with the patient’s face shape,

expression, and overall image, so we carefully discussed even the smallest details

and made a plan.

Next, a precise treatment process was needed.

As the first step, we performed 3D FACE & ORAL scanning.

Using RAYFace, we scanned the patient’s face in 3D,

and with 3Shape Trios5, we collected accurate tooth data.

As a result, we decided to proceed with 6 maxillary teeth, #13-23.

We analyzed the smile through Smile Photo shooting,

and used 3D Smile Preview technology to simulate the before-and-after appearance.

Through this process,

because the result can be checked in advance,

patients can clearly know what changes they will experience after treatment.

We then determined the tooth color through color and texture consultation,

choosing a natural shade that matches the skin tone rather than one that is too white.

I could see what it would look like after the treatment,

so I felt sure. I’m really looking forward to the result.

Make Dental Clinic’s strength is that, based on 3D scanning technology,

we can align teeth naturally and precisely.

By scanning the face and oral cavity in 3D,

we minimize unnecessary reduction

and create a natural smile.

Especially in sensitive areas like the front teeth,

such carefully planned treatment in advance is important,

as it can lead to greater satisfaction.

| 6. With an Accurate Guide, Only the Necessary Areas |

Make Dental Clinic treats patients with the hope that no one will suffer from indiscriminate reduction.

I was told there would be almost no reduction,

but I was surprised when I saw the result.

Many patients say this.

They say that another dental clinic clearly said the amount of reduction would be small,

but after treatment they were surprised by the amount of reduction,

which was more than expected.

Since this is a process that is difficult to confirm directly with your eyes,

concerns about the amount of reduction are naturally unavoidable.

To reduce this anxiety,

we use digital dentistry technology to precisely measure the amount of tooth reduction

to the decimal place, and our principle is to reduce only the minimum amount necessary.

The patient treated today also underwent tooth shaping and gum contouring

measured precisely to the decimal place,

so we were able to preserve as much of the original teeth as possible.

| 7. A Natural and Harmonious Change in the Front Teeth |

Gangnam laminates naturally improved the size and shape of the front teeth,

and the tooth color was also brightened to suit the skin tone.

To keep them from looking too white,

we adjusted them to a natural brightness.

Thanks to that, even after treatment,

it did not look awkward,

and we were able to complete a soft and harmonious impression

as if they had always been the original teeth.

Now I’m not uncomfortable when I smile.

I’m really happy that I don’t have to worry about my front teeth like before.

Seeing how satisfied the patient was,

I myself once again realized how much of a change Gangnam laminates can bring to a patient.

Hearing that they regained a natural, confident smile,

I felt very rewarded in the fact that Gangnam laminates do more than simply improve teeth

and positively affect the patient’s life.

As such, we always do our best to sincerely listen to each small discomfort

and concern that the patient feels,

and to find the right method for them.

In addition, we provide careful post-treatment care after the procedure,

helping the treatment effects last for a long time.

In particular, since Gangnam laminates are a treatment that is attached to the teeth,

if post-treatment management is not carried out,

they may return to their original state or the teeth may be damaged.

Therefore, through regular checkups and proper care methods,

we monitor the condition of the teeth

and prevent discomfort from occurring.

Without post-treatment care,

no treatment can be maintained perfectly,

so Make Dental Clinic does not neglect this part

and takes responsibility to the end.

To stay healthy and beautiful for a long time, Make Dental Clinic also considers the lifespan of laminates.

Make Dental Clinic is a place where we share in our patients’ happiness and satisfaction.

We always respect our patients’ feelings,

and we do our best with sincerity to create the most natural and comfortable smile.

If you have any questions or need a consultation about treatment,

please feel free to contact us.

We are always ready to be by your side

for your precious smile.

Thank you.
