Kumho-dong Dental Clinic: Systematic Navigation Implants, Charting the Course First

Although human teeth, which get a second chance at permanent teeth after deciduous teeth, appear hard and strong to the naked eye, they can easily be damaged by various oral diseases such as cavities or gum disease if one is even slightly careless.

The problem is that, unlike other body parts, damaged teeth cannot regenerate on their own, meaning once they are damaged, they cannot be restored. Therefore, while we care about our dental health throughout our lives, it is unfortunate that there is no way to prevent teeth from breaking or falling out due due to aging, disease, or accidents, no matter how meticulously we manage them.

However, considering a lost tooth as the end and neglecting it can lead to other oral diseases, temporomandibular joint disorders, facial asymmetry, and secondary complications. Therefore, efforts are needed to prevent further problems by quickly restoring artificial teeth in the missing tooth's spot through implant treatment, which not only protects remaining natural teeth from damage but also prevents the loss of alveolar bone in the edentulous area.

In the past, missing teeth were replaced with bridges or dentures. However, these methods made it difficult to prevent alveolar bone loss, could not achieve the same chewing power as natural teeth, making it hard to eat tough or hard foods, and had drawbacks such as an average lifespan of only 10-15 years, requiring re-treatment.

Fortunately, medical technology has continuously advanced, and a method that compensates for the shortcomings of bridges and dentures and allows for semi-permanent use is implant treatment, which replaces lost teeth by restoring artificial teeth in the alveolar bone. Currently, various implant procedures exist.

However, any implant, if not properly and correctly restored to the patient's oral cavity, can lead to problems such as the implanted tooth shaking or falling out again, as well as bacteria re-entering the gums to cause inflammation and gum disease. Therefore, it is a highly difficult procedure where accurate placement in the correct position is key.

Navigation implants, offered at Kumho-dong Dental Clinic, are a type of implant that uses precision diagnostic equipment like 3D-CT to thoroughly analyze the patient's oral condition. Then, through 3D virtual simulation surgery, the position, angle, and depth for implant restoration are predicted in advance to establish a treatment plan. This method has the advantage of allowing the dental team to find the optimal surgical path for the patient by precisely identifying the patient's oral structure, alveolar bone, bone tissue, and nerve locations through digital data before treatment.

The advantages of navigation implants provided at Kumho-dong Dental Clinic include reduced concerns about bleeding, pain, and infection due to minimal gum incision, as well as shorter surgery and recovery times. Therefore, depending on the patient's situation, temporary teeth can even be attached on the same day as the implant placement.

Furthermore, because navigation implants are placed with angles, spacing, and proximity to surrounding tooth roots that are very similar to natural teeth, an increased implant lifespan can also be expected.

However, as with all surgeries and treatments, the experience, skill, and expertise of the dental staff performing navigation implant treatment cannot be overlooked. Since each individual's oral structure is different, it is crucial to choose a Kumho-dong dental clinic that possesses precision diagnostic equipment to meticulously examine the patient's oral condition and ensures thorough post-operative care.

The chief director of Bareunyoung Dental Clinic in Kumho-dong possesses extensive treatment experience and expertise in complex implant restoration procedures, and is also certified as a specialist in Prosthodontics, qualified to provide other dental treatments.

Therefore, patients requiring comprehensive dental care beyond implant treatment do not need to visit other clinics, as one-stop treatment is available at Bareunyoung Dental Clinic in Kumho-dong.

Furthermore, Bareunyoung Dental Clinic in Kumho-dong is equipped with precision diagnostic equipment such as 3D-CT and a digital pain-free anesthesia system. This allows us to meticulously examine the patient's oral condition before navigation implant treatment and, based on that data, assist in providing 1:1 customized implants tailored to the patient. We also strive to reduce the burden of pain during implant treatment.

At Bareunyoung Dental Clinic in Kumho-dong, where the chief director, a specialist in Prosthodontics, directly provides treatment, we use only certified genuine materials for navigation implants and various other implant procedures. After treatment, we issue a treatment warranty to ensure thorough post-operative care, striving our best to protect the patient's dental health.

Above all, Bareunyoung Dental Clinic in Kumho-dong strives to build trust by thoroughly explaining the patient's current condition and treatment plan before any dental procedure, even if it takes a long time, ensuring the patient understands at their level, and avoiding unnecessary overtreatment.

While using natural teeth for as long as possible is the best approach, remember that maintaining severely damaged natural teeth that can no longer be saved can be detrimental to other remaining natural teeth. In such cases, it is necessary to save the remaining natural teeth by placing artificial teeth to replace the severely damaged ones. If you experience any dental health issues, we recommend seeking appropriate treatment promptly at a nearby Kumho-dong dental clinic.
