Implant techniques

Our experienced specialists place implants on the firm and
solid bones after high-level bone graft because alveolar bones cannot be regenerated again once damaged.

bone grafting

It is a technique to regenerate or reinforce bone tissue using bone graft materials to replace lost bone tissue when existing bone tissue for support and preservation is insufficient before implantation. After bone graft, the new bone tissue forms after certain period of time. It may take weeks to months to heal the surgical site after bone graft.

Guided Bone Regeneration

GBR provides environment where only bone tissue cells can proliferate using a barrier membrane, preventing other tissue cells to invade. The cells in human skin proliferates faster than bones. The bone tissue may be insufficient when the skin cells take place in the missing bone area before bone tissue forms. To prevent this to happen, the barrier membrane can be used to secure the area so that the bone tissue can be regenerated to a sufficient amount without forming other tissue cell type.

sinus lift

The maxillary sinus refers to an empty space in the upper jaw bone. The sinus life is a surgery to fill more bone tissues in between maxillary sinus and alveolar bone when there is not enough bone left to place an implant.

a precise procedure through
high-tech equipment

Osstell ISQ

It is a device that allows you to determine the degree of bone adhesion between the implant and the alveolar bone and shows as an numerical values. If the ISQ measurement is greater than 70, it is considered to be highly stable and can be moved to crown fabrication step.

3Shape Oral Scanner

Digital scanners scan teeth to create 3D modeling. This allow you to determine the condition of your teeth more accurately and quickly than traditional methods of using impression materials.
