Yonsei Dagam Dental is a specialized dental clinic in Seoul's Songpa District. Founded in 2001, the facility delivers patient-centered care through four units: the Sleep Sedation Center, Implant Center, Aesthetic Dentistry Center, and General Dentistry Center. Specialists trained at Yonsei University and Seoul National University lead the clinic.
Accreditations and Professional Recognition
The clinic's team includes a Ministry of Health and Welfare (MOHW) certified specialist in Comprehensive Dentistry. Dr. Ho-Yeon Suh, a lead dentist, has received the Minister of Health and Welfare Award and the Gimcheon City Commendation. His expertise has been featured on major Korean networks, including JTBC and MTN.
Medical protocols align with Yonsei University Severance Dental Hospital standards. Every patient receives a dedicated set of fully sterilized instruments. The Novacare water system removes 99.99% of bacteria and viruses from the clinic's water supply.
Aesthetic Dentistry and Veneers
The Aesthetic Dentistry Center specializes in Yonsei Dagam No-Prep Veneers. These ceramic restorations measure only 0.1mm thick. Because they're so thin, dentists place them without removing any enamel. This preserves natural tooth structure and prevents sensitivity. Patients preview the final look before the procedure begins.
Implant Center and Flapless Surgery
Specialists use 3D navigation and virtual surgery planning for flapless implant placement. This method needs only a 2mm micro-opening instead of a traditional incision. The result is less trauma and faster healing. The clinic offers several advanced implant options:
- 2-Step Same-Day Implants for patients needing rapid results
- Immediate placement after tooth extraction
- Computer-guided All-on-4 and All-on-6 full-arch restorations
- Socket preservation to maintain bone volume after tooth loss
Digital diagnostic models guide each procedure, so implants fit the patient's unique anatomy precisely.
Safe Sleep Sedation and General Dentistry
Patients with dental anxiety or a strong gag reflex can choose Safe Sleep Sedation. This conscious sedation allows multiple treatments in one visit. The team uses a staged anesthesia system with continuous real-time monitoring. ECG and vital-sign checks confirm sedation depth before local anesthesia begins.
The General Dentistry Center handles same-day wisdom tooth extractions. Surgeons use 3D imaging to assess how close the tooth sits to the inferior alveolar nerve. This careful planning protects sensitive nerve structures during removal. Recovery from sedated procedures typically takes 1 to 2 hours.
Diagnostic Equipment and Technologies
Yonsei Dagam Dental uses digital precision tools for treatment planning and accurate diagnosis:
- 3D Digital CT and digital oral scans for three-dimensional modeling
- Cerec Omnicam for scanning and creating digital diagnostic models
- DIAGNOcam for early cavity detection without X-ray radiation
- Digital Smile Design (DSD) for computer-planned aesthetic outcomes
- Panoramic, targeted, and periapical X-ray systems
These tools help doctors create golden-ratio restorations tailored to each patient's facial profile.
Services for International Patients
An English-speaking doctor is available on-site for international patients. This allows direct discussion of treatment plans and aftercare with your provider. After treatment, the team reviews results and provides detailed discharge instructions.
