Dental prosthetics treatment·root canal treatment
After losing a tooth or having root canal treatment
Restoring the shape of your teethThis treatment preserves function.
If a missing tooth is left untreated for a long time, the surrounding teeth can shift into the gap and disrupt the alignment, and food can get trapped in the spaces, making tooth decay and gum disease more likely. Over time, this can lead to a cycle of losing more teeth, and changes in the muscles around the mouth may also change the shape of the face. In addition, if no prosthesis is placed after root canal treatment, the weakened tooth can break easily, so it is best to receive prosthetic treatment as soon as possible. Perfect Dental Clinic considers your pain during treatment and provides personalized care through a university-hospital-style system of collaboration between specialties.

Types of dental prosthetics treatment
Dental crown For a single tooth injury (without tooth extraction)
This treatment involves removing the area around a damaged tooth and covering the entire tooth with a custom-made dental prosthetic. Dental crown treatment can help you chew and protect other teeth and gums from damage when you have severe tooth decay, a tooth that is more than half broken, or a tooth that has had root canal treatment. You can choose a material that suits your goals, priorities, and budget based on the condition of your teeth.
![]() | ☑ zirconia, all-ceramic crown - Aesthetic because it is similar in color to natural teeth - Its excellent strength makes it suitable for both front and back teeth |
![]() | ☑ Gold dental crown - Using a Super Gold dental crown,Gold content 56%(14K gold content 58%) - Type A gold dental crown, which was commonly used in the past, 45~47% - Its color is not aesthetically pleasing, so it is mainly used on molars. |
Bridge Performed when a single tooth is damaged
If you need a tooth extraction or have already lost a tooth, a bridge is a treatment in which the teeth on either side are trimmed slightly to serve as supports, and an artificial tooth is attached between them. It works on the same principle as placing a bridge between two pillars. One advantage is that it can restore the shape and function of your teeth at a relatively low cost. However, its biggest drawback is that healthy teeth on either side must be trimmed.
![]() | Dental implant treatment is one way to address these limitations, as it ...It is a method of placing an artificial tooth without damaging the jawbone. |
Dentures Treatment varies depending on the extent of tooth loss
This treatment involves removing the area around a damaged tooth and covering the entire tooth with a custom-made dental prosthetic. Dental crown treatment can help you chew and protect other teeth and gums from damage when you have severe tooth decay, a tooth that is more than half broken, or a tooth that has had root canal treatment. You can choose a material that suits your goals, priorities, and budget based on the condition of your teeth.
![]() | ☑ For multiple missing teeth Partial dentures If you have lost several teeth and cannot be treated with a bridge, you may be able to use partial dentures. They are held in place and supported by clasps attached to the remaining teeth. Another option now is to attach magnets to the tooth roots to hold the dentures in place. This can improve on the traditional method, where visible clasps may affect appearance. |
![]() | ☑ When a tooth is completely lost Full dentures These dentures are used when you have lost all your teeth and cannot use partial dentures, or when the cost of dental implants is a concern. However, because they are supported only by your gums, they may come loose easily. Even a slight mismatch can cause severe gum pain and damage. You should have dentures made and fitted to your needs based on an accurate diagnosis, and have them maintained through regular checkups. |
![]() | ☑ When a tooth is completely lost Dental implant dentures This option supplements full dentures by placing 2~4 dental implants and using them to support the dentures. Compared with full dentures, it improves chewing function and minimizes damage to the jawbone. Some patients who are unhappy with the function of their bridges or dentures may want to switch to dental implants. Depending on your dental condition, dentures may also be used along with dental implants. |
During root canal treatmentDental crown
Why it is essential
When a tooth has had root canal treatment, the nerve is removed
As the enamel and dentin weaken Breaks easily.
To protect natural teeth that have weakened because of this
Proceed with dental crown and dental prosthetics treatment together
You need to prevent your teeth from breaking.
If the problem is left untreated for a long time and inflammation develops near the root of the tooth, treatment may take longer. If the inflammation is severe or the decay has reached the root, root canal treatment or a dental crown may not be possible, and tooth extraction may be needed. For this reason, if you feel pain in a tooth, it is best to see a dentist as soon as possible.
