6 No-Prep and Minimal-Prep Laminates:
A Patient from Overseas with Microdontia and Teeth Gap Fillings

 

 

Hello! Yonsei Yegam Dental Clinic is located near City Hall Station, Exit 7, directly across the Samsung Main Building. 

 

 

Our clinic is conveniently located in the heart of Seoul, with easy access from Jongro, Gwanghwamun, Euljiro, Seoul Station, and Chungjeongno, making it accessible from both the northern and southern parts of the city. Additionally, many patients from other regions of Korea and abroad visit our clinic.

 

Today, we’d like to share a case about a foreign patient who received veers to address microdontia and close gaps between the teeth before returning abroad.

We received an email from a patient residing in the United States.

 

“Hello, I'm from the US and am visiting Seoul for the next few weeks.
I am interested in getting a consultation for veneers.”

 

 

The patient requested a consultation for veneers and hopes to get it done within a few weeks during their stay in Korea.

 

 

Before the veneer treatment, the patient had no prior procedures.

The patient had baby teeth and significatn gaps between the front teeth, and was considering getting veneers only for the six upper front teeth.

 

Given that the six up upper teeth will cover the lower teeth when closed and smile, we diagnosed that treating just those six will suffice to better impression. Since the patient needed to leave soon, we expedited the process and took impressions for the veneers on the same day.

 

 

Here is the photo after the treatment.

 

 Before & After

 

Veneers for Microdontia and Gaps Between Teeth (6 Upper Teeth)

 

After the consultation the patient wanted to proceed with the treatment immediately. For the six teeth, minimal reduction was done on the necessary teeth (only reshaping the uneven areas) while leaving most of the teeth as they are.

 

 

 

We decided to reshape only the two long, uneven front teeth and take impressions. The remaining four teeth were left completely intact.

The appearance after the impressions were taken on the first visit and the veneers were placed nine days later. The patient was very satisfied with the color and shape, so the process was completed in one visit.

 

 

We use our unique expertise to create veneers that are as natural-looking as possible while achieving a bright white color. Even though we only treated the six most visible front teeth, the overall impression became incredibly uniform and bright!

 

​

Here is a short clip of the patient trying on the veneers and returning for a check-up one week later, where they share their treatment experience at our clinic.

When the patient came in for a check-up a week later, the gums had healed well, and the patient was satisfied.

 

.

According to the patient, it was most satisfying to have completed six veneers in Korea at an affordable price within a short period, requiring only two visits (the day of impressions and the day of placement).

 

 

To wrap up, today’s posting was to share the case of a foreign patient who successfully completed six upper front teeth veneers in one visit at Yonsei Yegam Dental Clinic, conveniently located near City Hall and Myeongdong in Seoul.
