FAQ
Questions patients ask us
Still unsure? Message us on WhatsApp at +82 10-2762-3828 .
Do the dentists speak English?
Yes. Consultations and treatment explanations are given in English, and we also support Chinese, Vietnamese, Russian and Mongolian. The clinic is registered to treat international patients.
Where is the clinic and how do I get there?
We are on the 5th floor of 1050 Jegi-dong, Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul. Take Subway Line 1 to Jegi-dong Station and leave by Exit 2; the clinic is about a 2-minute walk. From Seoul Station it is 8 stops on Line 1.
What are your opening hours?
Monday, Tuesday and Thursday 9:30 AM to 6:30 PM. Wednesday and Friday 9:30 AM to 8:00 PM (night clinic). Saturday 9:30 AM to 2:00 PM. Closed on Sundays and public holidays. Lunch break is 12:30 to 2:00 PM.
Why choose dental implants, and what are the advantages?
Implants replace missing teeth in a way that closely mimics natural teeth. They restore chewing, improve speech and appearance, and help prevent the jawbone loss that follows tooth loss.
What is the All-on-4 implant system?
All-on-4 uses four implants to support a full arch of fixed teeth. It suits patients who have lost most or all of their teeth and want a fixed alternative to dentures. Read about All-on-4.
Does insurance cover dental implants?
It depends on your plan. Foreign residents enrolled in Korean National Health Insurance may get partial coverage for eligible treatments; related procedures such as extractions or crowns may also be partly covered. Visitors usually pay directly and can claim from travel insurance.
Does implant treatment hurt?
Implants are placed under local anesthesia, so pain during treatment is minimal. Mild swelling afterwards is common and usually settles within a few days. Sleep sedation is available if you feel anxious.
How long do implants last, and how do I care for them?
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, implants can last for decades. Brush and floss daily, keep up professional cleanings, and avoid smoking.
