Computer-assisted 3D planning helps select an approach suited to your oral anatomy. Explore our guided, insurance-covered, one-day, immediate, autologous PRF and UV-treated implant options.
Implant Planning in 3D Guided planning maps the surgical approach in three dimensions to help avoid nearby nerves.
Guided implants use digital imaging and simulated surgery to plan treatment around your oral condition. An opening is made at the planned implant site to limit unnecessary gum incisions, bleeding and swelling and support recovery.
3D CT imaging provides detailed information about your oral anatomy.
3D data is used to simulate surgery and plan implant position.
A guide is made for the individual patient's treatment plan.
The implant is placed at the planned position using the guide.
Understanding Implant Insurance Expanded implant insurance benefits for eligible people aged 65 and over have applied since July 2018.
Eligible Korean National Health Insurance members aged 65 and over may receive implant benefits with a standard 30% copayment, subject to eligibility and the lifetime limit of two implants. Please confirm current coverage and materials during consultation.
Bone grafting may be considered when necessary, depending on the examination findings.
Treatment time varies according to oral condition.
Topical and local anaesthesia help reduce discomfort.
Soft food may be possible after approximately 2-3 hours, following the clinical team's instructions.
One-Day Implant Placement An option for people with limited time for dental visits.
For suitable cases, extraction and implant placement can take place on the same day under one anaesthetic. This may help people who find repeat visits difficult. Gum and tooth conditions can make the approach unsuitable, so a detailed assessment is necessary.
We discuss your symptoms and treatment direction in detail.
CT imaging and an intraoral scan provide detailed diagnostic information.
We explain the findings and place the implant that day where suitable.
A restoration is attached and the bite is assessed as part of the planned same-day procedure.
Placing an implant immediately after extraction can reduce overall treatment time.
Immediate placement combines extraction and implant placement in one appointment. A temporary restoration may be used to help daily function while treatment progresses. Suitability depends on bone volume and the condition of the gums.
Supporting Healing Around Implants PRF helps support wound healing and bone formation.
PRF, or platelet-rich fibrin, is prepared from a patient's own blood. It is used during implant treatment to support wound healing and bone formation. Using the patient's own blood limits the risk of rejection.
Approximately 10 ml of blood is collected from the patient's arm.
The blood sample is centrifuged to prepare concentrated PRF.
The A-PRF is trimmed or shaped to suit the surgical site.
Liquid i-PRF is mixed with graft material to support bone formation.
Preparing the Implant Surface UV exposure before placement removes organic material from the implant surface and supports integration with bone.
UV treatment is applied immediately before placement to remove surface organic material and increase wettability. This surface preparation is intended to support stable integration between the implant and surrounding bone.
We examine your mouth and establish a treatment plan.
UV light is applied to the implant surface.
The treated surface becomes highly wettable, supporting bone integration after placement.
After bone integration, the replacement tooth is made and fitted.
