If your previous treatment results look unnatural,
or if you experience
recurring pain and inflammation
in your front teeth, don't leave it untreated.
We don't just address visible issues;
we accurately diagnose the condition of
your nerves
and gums using X-rays and oral examinations.
After diagnosis,
we develop a treatment plan tailored
to the fundamental cause.
As this is a complex procedure that requires considering both aesthetics and function,
we approach it carefully, based on 30 years of experience handling diverse
cases.
Those bothered by unnatural
color or shape
from previous treatments
Those experiencing recurrent
front tooth pain
or gum inflammation
Those with loose or fractured prosthetics
Those needing retreatment consultation from another dental clinic
Fixing only visible problems
leads to recurring symptoms.
Yedam Smart Dental Clinic first identifies the cause, then proceeds with the necessary treatment.
Whether the reason for retreatment is
a simple prosthetic issue,
or if it involves nerve or gum problems,
the approach varies significantly.
After an accurate diagnosis,
only necessary steps are carefully
performed.
X-rays and an oral scanner are used
to check for the need for root canal treatment,
inflammation at the root tip,
and the condition of the alveolar bone.
Finding the fundamental reason Finding
the root cause first is the beginning of retreatment.
If pain or inflammation originates
from nerve
or gum problems,
retreatment of the root canal
or gum treatment is performed
first.
If the cause
is not addressed, the same symptoms will recur.
Designed with materials suitable
for the
tooth condition and biting force.
Color and shape harmony with adjacent teeth,
and the overall smile line are considered
together.
Digital equipment is used to precisely
measure
the color of adjacent teeth,
and the director and technician coordinate
in the in-house dental
lab.
Because adjustments are made in the same space
without external
outsourcing,
fine-tuning is quick.
We don't just address visible issues.
After thoroughly checking the condition
of the nerves,
gums, and bone with X-rays
and oral examinations,
we establish a treatment plan tailored to the fundamental cause.
If the cause is not accurately identified, the
same
problem may recur even after retreatment.
Therefore, we dedicate the most time to
this diagnostic process.
With extensive experience in various
front tooth
retreatments
and aesthetic prosthetic cases over many
years, we create natural results that
consider not only
the physical properties of the materials
but also the
overall balance
of the teeth and the smile line.
We don't just focus on a single beautiful tooth—we consider the overall impression of
your smile.
Outsourcing to an external lab
can lead to delays in
matching colors and
shapes,
and communication limitations.
At Yedam Smart Dental Clinic, the dentist and dental technician work together
in the same space to directly match colors and shapes,
allowing for quick adjustments when minor changes are needed.
As aesthetic judgment is crucial
in this treatment,
we do not rely on the perspective of just one person.
When necessary, four medical
professionals consult
together to strive for
more satisfying results.
Do I really need to redo my previous front tooth treatment?
If the color or shape of your previous prosthesis is unnatural, or if you experience recurring pain or gum inflammation, retreatment may be considered. However, retreatment is not necessary in all cases. The need for treatment will be determined after checking the condition of the nerves and gums through X-rays and oral examinations. The approach may differ between cases where only aesthetic concerns are present and those accompanied by pain.
What is the difference between simply replacing a prosthesis and retreatment?
Simply replacing a prosthesis involves only checking the visible condition of the prosthesis and replacing it with a new one. Retreatment, on the other hand, involves checking the condition of the nerves, gums, and bone with X-rays and oral examinations, and then proceeding with nerve treatment or gum treatment first if necessary. If the underlying problem is not resolved and only the prosthesis is replaced, the same symptoms are likely to recur. Therefore, if there has been pain or inflammation, it is generally recommended to start with a diagnosis of the cause.
Is front tooth retreatment painful?
The degree of pain during retreatment varies depending on the scope of treatment and the individual's condition. The intensity of treatment differs significantly between cases requiring only simple prosthesis re-fabrication and those requiring nerve treatment or gum treatment. Therefore, it is helpful to be informed of the expected process in advance based on the diagnostic results. It is best to confirm the exact level of pain during a consultation, based on your specific oral condition.
How do you match the color of front teeth?
We measure the color of adjacent teeth numerically using digital equipment, then the director and dental technician directly coordinate the process in our in-house dental lab. Since we do not outsource to external labs and perform adjustments in the same facility, we can respond relatively quickly when fine-tuning of color or shape is needed. However, the perceived tooth color may vary depending on lighting or individual tooth conditions, making it challenging to achieve an identical match in some cases.
Can I get a consultation for my front teeth that were treated at another dental clinic?
Consultations are available for front tooth prosthetics treated at other dental clinics. Previous treatment records can be helpful, but even without them, we can assess your current condition through X-rays and oral examination, diagnose the cause, and guide you on the treatment direction. Whether re-treatment is necessary and which method is suitable will be determined after an individual diagnosis.
Can the same problem recur after re-treatment?
Accurately diagnosing the cause before re-treatment and addressing that cause (e.g., nerve issues, gum inflammation) before remaking the prosthetic can help reduce the likelihood of recurrence compared to simply replacing the prosthetic without resolving the underlying issue. However, results may vary depending on oral hygiene and individual tooth conditions, so regular check-ups are recommended to monitor your status.
