Uijeongbu Cavity Treatment, Step by Step by Stage

If you are looking into cavity treatment in Uijeongbu, it is known that accurate diagnosis comes first, because the treatment method differs with how far the decay has progressed. Dr.Beauty Dental Hospital is at 181 Hoeryong-ro, Uijeongbu-si, a 10-minute walk from Hoeryong Station, and after checking the extent of the decay and even early demineralization with 3D CT and an intraoral camera (QLF), we explain which of resin, an inlay, a crown, or root canal treatment is suitable.

Cavity treatment in Uijeongbu — what should you check?

It is known that a small cavity is often finished the same day with resin, that an inlay or a crown is used where the damage is larger, and that where the decay has reached the nerve the tooth goes through root canal treatment and is then protected with a crown. Dr.Beauty Dental Hospital uses an intraoral camera (QLF) to check even early cavities that cannot be seen, and it is our principle to propose only the treatment that is needed, step by step, rather than going further than necessary.

Cavity treatment (excluding some resin work), root canal treatment, and extraction are covered by National Health Insurance, as set out in National Health Insurance Service notices, and we explain in advance that some items, such as resin placed for aesthetic purposes in adults, are non-covered. Light-cured composite resin fillings in the permanent teeth of children aged 5 to 12 are also partly covered.

We are a 10-minute walk from Exit 2 of Hoeryong Station in Uijeongbu, and with night hours until 20:00 on Mondays and Thursdays and weekend hours on Saturdays and Sundays, you can be treated after weekday work or at the weekend. A cavity left untreated is reported to grow in the extent of treatment it requires, so where there is sensitivity or pain, an early check is recommended.

Frequently asked questions

Q. Can a cavity be treated in a single day in Uijeongbu?
It is known that a small cavity is often finished on the same day with resin treatment. However, where the cavity is large or has reached the nerve, an inlay or crown has to be made or root canal treatment carried out, which means several visits. At Dr.Beauty Dental Hospital, a 10-minute walk from Hoeryong Station, we check how far it has progressed with 3D CT and an intraoral camera and then explain whether same-day treatment is possible along with the treatment plan.
Q. Is cavity treatment covered by National Health Insurance?
Cavity treatment (excluding some resin work), root canal treatment, and extraction are covered by National Health Insurance, as set out in National Health Insurance Service notices. Some items, such as resin placed for aesthetic purposes in adults, are carried out as non-covered treatment, and we explain in advance that a prosthetic crown is non-covered when made on its own. Resin in the permanent teeth of children aged 5 to 12 is partly covered.
Q. My tooth is sensitive — is it a cavity?
It is known to be difficult to tell from sensitivity to cold or sweet things alone whether the cause is a cavity or simple dentine hypersensitivity. If a particular tooth becomes steadily more sensitive and painful, a cavity is possible and a check is recommended. At Dr.Beauty Dental Hospital, a 10-minute walk from Hoeryong Station, we identify the cause with an intraoral camera and then explain the treatment options. Phone +82 31-855-7528.
