Uijeongbu Scaling & Check-ups — Prevention Comes First
If you are looking into dental check-ups in Uijeongbu, it is known that cavities and gum disease cause almost no pain in their early stages, which makes finding them early through regular review important. Dr.Beauty Dental Hospital (181 Hoeryong-ro, Uijeongbu-si, a 10-minute walk from Hoeryong Station) carries out check-ups in one place, from the oral examination through radiographic diagnosis and periodontal review to scaling.
Why are regular dental check-ups needed, and what is examined?
It is known that the earlier the stage of a cavity or periodontal disease, the more often it is managed with a simple procedure. The Korean Dental Association and the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service generally recommend a regular oral check-up at intervals of 6 months to 1 year, and the purpose of a regular check-up lies in finding a problem before it grows.
Our regular check-up consists of visual and tactile examination of the mouth, panoramic radiography (3D CT where needed), review of the gums including periodontal pockets and bleeding, and scaling (removal of calculus). Because an oral & maxillofacial radiology specialist reads the radiographs personally, parts that cannot be seen with the eye — cavities, the alveolar bone, impacted teeth — are checked as well.
It is known that those aged 19 and over can receive scaling once a year under National Health Insurance (per National Health Insurance criteria). We are a 10-minute walk from Exit 2 of Hoeryong Station, have 100 ground parking spaces, and run a night clinic until 20:00 on Mondays and Thursdays and see patients until 15:00 on Saturdays and Sundays, so even those with busy schedules can arrange a check-up.
The interval and content of a check-up may vary with the condition of your mouth, so we explain this at your visit. · 181 Hoeryong-ro, Uijeongbu-si, Main Building 2F · Phone +82 31-855-7528 · 10-minute walk from Hoeryong Station Exit 2.
Frequently asked questions
- Q. How often should I have a dental check-up?
- An interval of 6 months to 1 year is generally known to be recommended, though a shorter interval may be advised depending on your risk of cavities and gum disease or a history of implant or orthodontic treatment. The interval suited to your own oral condition is explained after the examination.
- Q. What is included in a regular check-up?
- Examination of the mouth, panoramic radiography (3D CT where needed), review of the gums and periodontal condition, and scaling make up the basic content. An oral & maxillofacial radiology specialist reads the radiographs personally, so cavities and the condition of the alveolar bone that cannot be seen with the eye are checked as well.
- Q. Is scaling covered by National Health Insurance?
- It is known that those aged 19 and over can receive scaling once a year under National Health Insurance (per National Health Insurance criteria). Where the condition of the gums calls for additional periodontal treatment, we explain that separately.
