Hello everyone!

We just wanted to announce our recent move to Yongsan area.
We have moved to Yongsan Park Tower on Feb 29th , 2012.

It's been 3 years since we first established "Tufts Dental " in Gangnam, Seoul, near COEX area.
Ever since we started, we have focused on improving expats and foreigners' oral health and have  become one of the most recommended dental clinics for international population.

We would, also, like to take this opportunity to express our appreciation for all of you who visited, entrusted, and supported us.

Our new office is located at Park Tower, Yongsan, near Ichon / National Museum station ( Line4, #430). It's an area where a lot of foreigners reside and so close to Gate 13 of  Yongsan Military Base that if  you are a military personnel, you could park your car at the gate and walk just 1 min to our office.
We are one of  TRICARE dental providers in Seoul since April 2011, so, please, bring your Tricare dental card with you :-)

We closed Gangnam office. First, we are not allowed to have more than one office and we do want to focus on the one office. :-)
We have renamed our dental clinic as "U.S. Dental". However, "Tufts Dental" will still be used as well. We find "Tufts" is a bit hard to pronounce, especially for none-English speakers :-)

Please,visit our website for more detailed informationwww.drginasohn.com  or www.tuftsdental.net

Again, we sincerely appreciate all your support and promise to continue to satisfy your every dental needs and be one of the best dental clinics.

Thank you !

Advantages of Dental Implants

U.S.Dental ( also known as Tufts Dental )

The dental implants are basically the best replacements if you have lost your natural tooth.
There are several advantages that speak in favor of choosing dental implants.

  • They look extremely natural. Someone with a dental implant denture will have a beautiful smile, just like he/she would have a natural set of healthy teeth.
  • Dental implants not only look good, but they also feel like natural teeth. It takes a little bit of time until one gets used to them, but after that, you will never have any problems.
  • With aging, natural tooth loss occurs. And, with that teeth loss, the bones in the jaw area will also start to collapse. If you have dental implants, the entire bone structure of the face stays in place.
  • When dental bridge work is done to a patient, the teeth in the proximity of the missing teeth will be altered. This is not the case with dental implants, because none of your healthy teeth will suffer any changes or adjustments in order to make the implant fit.
  • With dental implants, patients can eat and chew regularly just about any kind of food. With dentures, you may already know how embarrassing it can become to have a bite from an apple, without using quickly the adhesive.
However, in order to become a successful candidate you must have healthy gums and strong bones that will hold the artificial tooth replacement.
Bone grafting is routinely used for people who do not have enough or strong jaw bones for the dental implant to be biologically inserted.
