Services
What we treat
Most international patients come to us for one of the following. If you are unsure, send a photo on KakaoTalk and we will tell you what is likely involved before you visit.
01
Dental Implants
Including complex cases: severe bone loss, sinus lift, and revision of failed implants placed elsewhere. Planned with 3D digital navigation.
02
Veneers & Crowns
Porcelain veneers, all-ceramic and zirconia crowns. Shade matching and smile design by a board-certified prosthodontist.
03
Wisdom Tooth Extraction
Impacted and deeply positioned third molars, assessed by CT beforehand. Sedation available for anxious patients.
04
Root Canal Treatment
Performed under 25× microscope, including retreatment of root canals that have failed previously.
05
Gum Treatment
Periodontal therapy and regenerative treatment for loose teeth caused by advanced gum disease.
06
Whitening & TMJ
Professional in-office whitening, and assessment of jaw pain, clicking and limited opening.
Technology
Equipment you would expect at a university hospital
Diagnosis is where most treatment failures begin. We invested here first.
Green X CT
Premium 3D cone-beam CT that reduces radiation exposure by 52.6% compared with conventional units — relevant if you need repeated scans, are pregnant or planning pregnancy, or are simply cautious about exposure.
25× Surgical Microscope
Root canals, cracks and marginal fit are checked under magnification rather than by feel. What cannot be seen cannot be treated reliably.
4 Independent Operating Rooms
Fully separated surgical suites with hospital-grade infection control and dedicated ventilation — not a partitioned corner of the main clinic floor.
3D Digital Implant Navigation
Surgical guides designed in-house with 3Shape Implant Studio and printed on a medical 3D printer, so implant position is simulated against bone, nerve and vessels before surgery.
How It Works
From first message to finished treatment
No hidden steps. You will know the plan and the cost before anything is started.
Get in touch
Message us on KakaoTalk or book through Naver. Tell us your symptom and, if you can, attach a photo. We will reply in English with a rough idea of what is involved and how long it will take.
Examination & 3D CT
On your first visit we take a low-dose CT scan and intraoral photographs. This usually takes about 30 minutes.
Treatment plan & written estimate
A specialist explains the findings, the options, the expected number of visits and the total cost. You receive this in writing before agreeing to anything.
Treatment
Simple procedures can often be completed the same day. Implants and full-mouth cases are scheduled around your stay in Korea wherever possible.
Follow-up
Aftercare instructions in English, and remote follow-up by KakaoTalk if you have already returned home.

FAQ
Questions international patients actually ask
Consultation in English is available. For detailed treatment planning we recommend messaging us on KakaoTalk in advance so we can schedule a slot with English support and prepare the explanation properly. For Chinese, Japanese and Thai, please contact us ahead of your visit and we will arrange interpretation support.
Cost depends on bone condition, the number of teeth involved and the materials chosen, so we do not publish fixed prices — a quote given without a CT scan would not be honest. Send us your situation on KakaoTalk and we will give you a realistic range before you travel, then a written estimate after examination.
Usually not in a single week. Implants require the fixture to integrate with bone, which typically takes two to five months depending on the site and your bone quality. What we can do is complete the surgical stage during one visit and the final crown on a second trip, or coordinate with a dentist in your home country. Tell us your travel dates and we will plan around them.
We accept Korean credit and debit cards, and major international cards including Visa, Mastercard, JCB and UnionPay. Cash in Korean won is also accepted. Please confirm your card type with us in advance for large treatment amounts.
If you are a registered foreign resident enrolled in Korean National Health Insurance, coverage applies to the same procedures as for Korean nationals — for example extractions, root canals and scaling. Implants, veneers and whitening are generally not covered. Short-term visitors and tourists are treated as non-insured patients. Bring your ARC and insurance card if you have them.
We are open every day of the year, including weekends and public holidays, which is unusual for dental clinics in Seoul. For sudden pain, swelling or a broken tooth, call or message us first and we will try to fit you in on the same day.
Photo ID or passport, and your Alien Registration Card and insurance card if you have them. If you have previous X-rays, CT scans or treatment records from another clinic, bringing them helps considerably — especially for revision cases.
