Cavity and Filling Treatment in Korea
Timing is key – Don’t delay your dental treatment.
Cavity and Tooth Decay Treatment
Unlike other parts of our body, teeth do not heal or regenerate. As tooth decay worsens, the scope of treatment expands, potentially causing a negative effect on surrounding teeth and gums. It is recommended to have a checkup before the pain and treatment costs escalate further.
Gentle Dental Gangnam Clinic offers honest, straightforward treatment, with various methods tailored to each patient’s condition according to the degree of tooth decay.

CHECK POINT
Why do you need cavity and tooth decay treatment?
Doctor’s Guide
If tooth decay is ignored and symptoms worsen, it can damage the internal pulp tissue, resulting in severe toothache. When dental pulp tissue is damaged and inflammation sets in, teeth can’t heal naturally. Caries treatment is essential in such situations.
Dental Cavity Treatment Progression
| Tooth Decay Stages |  |  |  |  |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Progress | Early-stage cavity that is only on the tooth surface (enamel) | Mid-stage cavity that has reached the inside of the tooth (dentin) | Late-stage cavity with inflammation extending to the dental nerve (pulp) | Cavity throughout the nerve tissue and inflammation up to the root of the tooth |
| Symptom | Almost no pain / difficult to see with the naked eye | Pain when eating / can see with the naked eye | Occurrence of pain that makes daily life difficult / A condition in which not only the hard tissue of the tooth but also the pulp is inflamed | A condition in which the gums are severely swollen and must be considered for tooth extraction |
| Treatment method | Resin filling treatment | Inlay / onlay prosthetic treatment | Prosthetic treatment such as nerve treatment and crown | Root canal treatment or implant treatment after tooth extraction |
accurate diagnosis / same-day treatment / fast cure
Dental Cavity Treatment Stages
Resin in the early stage of tooth decay
The dental materials we use closely match the natural tooth color resulting in a superior result. Our resins bond well with the original tooth, and require less tooth removal compared to other cavity treatments.
Cavity intermediate stage inlays/onlays
A precise procedure that involves removing cavities with an inlay, and then filling the removed area when the cavity is deep or wide, but does not necessitate nerve treatment.
Crowns in late stage cavities
After treatment for a severe tooth fracture or a completed root canal, we cover the tooth with a crown to protect and prolong its lifespan.
