Treatments
From a check-up to a full smile plan
Choose what brings you here. A dentist examines you first and explains each step before treatment begins.
Gum treatment
For Gums that are swollen or bleed when you brush.
The gums are examined and cleaned first. Further steps depend on how far the inflammation has gone.
Prosthetic treatment
For A tooth that is broken, worn down or already crowned.
Crowns and other restorations are made to match the shape and colour of your natural teeth.
Wisdom tooth removal
For Wisdom teeth that hurt, push on other teeth, or grow at an angle.
The dentist checks the position of the tooth and its roots before removing it, so you know what to expect.
Microscope root canal treatment
For A tooth with a deep infection, or an earlier root canal that needs another look.
A Zeiss surgical microscope lets the dentist see the fine canals inside the tooth. Retreatment is available for teeth treated before.
Endodontic microsurgery
For Pain or inflammation that continues after a standard root canal treatment.
A surgical option for cases where a standard root canal cannot solve the problem. It is done under the microscope, following the protocol of the Yonsei University dental hospital.
Tooth replantation and transplant
For A tooth that cannot stay where it is but may be kept in the mouth.
In suitable cases, a tooth is moved or replanted instead of being removed. The dentist explains whether your tooth qualifies after an examination.
Dental trauma care
For A tooth that was knocked out, cracked or loosened in an accident.
If this happens, contact the clinic as soon as you can. The sooner a tooth is seen, the more options there are.
3D computer-guided implants
For Missing teeth where you want a precise plan and fewer surprises.
The clinic uses a 3D digital guide system. Your jawbone is scanned, the position is planned on a virtual model, and the guide is used during surgery.
Custom implants
For A single tooth, several teeth, or a full arch.
The plan follows your bite and jawbone. Implants need several visits, and the timing is explained after the examination.
Bone grafting
For A jawbone that is too thin or low to hold an implant.
Bone is added where it is needed before or during implant placement. The dentist explains if it is necessary.
Implant revision
For An implant that has loosened or become infected, or one placed elsewhere that needs another look.
The condition of the implant and the bone is checked first. Options range from cleaning to replacing the implant.
Orthodontics that protects natural teeth
For Crowded or uneven teeth where you want to avoid extractions where possible.
The clinic describes its approach as keeping natural teeth wherever it can. The plan starts with an examination and records.
Adult orthodontics
For Adults who want straighter teeth or a more comfortable bite.
Treatment is planned around your age, gums and any existing dental work. Gum health is checked before starting.
Orthodontics for a balanced face
For A bite or profile you would like to improve.
The orthodontic specialist reviews your teeth and facial balance together and explains the options.
Teeth whitening
For Teeth that have yellowed or stained over time.
Whitening is done after the teeth and gums are checked. Results differ from person to person.
All-ceramic restorations
For Teeth that are worn, discoloured or have old metal fillings.
Metal-free ceramic crowns and similar restorations that match your natural teeth.
Minimal-reduction laminate veneers
For Teeth with a gap, chip or uneven shape.
