Implants, veneers, Minish and orthodontics, explained before you decide.
DENTAL COLUMN
For older adults, decay moves to exposed roots, dry mouth often comes from medicines rather than age, and dentures take weeks to months to get used to. This guide from an English-speaking clinic in Busan explains these changes, what Japan does for an aging society and what families can watch for.
DENTAL COLUMN
Whether a molar needs a filling or a crown depends on how much tooth wall is left, not just the cavity's size. This guide from an English-speaking clinic in Busan covers resin fillings, inlays and onlays, when a crown is advised, crowns after root canals, metal-free ceramics and how long each lasts.
DENTAL COLUMN
The right inlay depends on conditions, not rankings. This guide from an English-speaking clinic in Busan compares gold, ceramic, composite resin and amalgam: where each fits, how grinding changes the choice, what the source says about mercury, and when an old amalgam filling really needs replacing.
DENTAL COLUMN
Temporary veneers do not bond to your teeth, so they can come off. This guide from an English-speaking dental clinic in Busan covers which foods to avoid, what to do if a temporary falls out, how to brush and floss, and how to use this period to preview your finished smile.
DENTAL COLUMN
A denture gets loose because the jawbone under missing teeth keeps shrinking, not because the denture stretches. This guide explains relining and adjustment, why clasped teeth wear out first, implant support and daily care. It comes from a dental clinic in Busan offering 1:1 English interpretation.
DENTAL COLUMN
Veneers are not covered by health insurance in Korea, so each clinic sets its own fee. What really differs is the steps included, from the diagnostic model to bite adjustment, and the materials used. This guide from an English-speaking clinic in Busan explains what to ask at a veneer consultation.
DENTAL COLUMN
The color of veneers is matched, not picked: porcelain lets the tooth underneath show through, and strength and translucency pull against each other. This guide from Seomyeon, Busan explains how shade is set and why it is hard to change later, with 1:1 English interpretation available.
DENTAL COLUMN
About 85–90% of bad breath starts inside the mouth. This guide from an English-speaking dental clinic in Seomyeon, Busan explains the three places to check first, why mouthwash gives short-term relief, how breath is measured, and when to see an ENT or internal medicine doctor.
DENTAL COLUMN
There is no single dental checkup interval that suits everyone. Sources suggest once a year with no disease, every 6 months after treatment, and every 3–6 months with gum disease. This guide from an English-speaking clinic in Busan explains how the interval is set and what the exam checks.
