Questions & answers
Clear answers before you visit.
For a personal response, use Online Chat or WhatsApp and include your travel dates.
Can I visit just for a checkup or scaling?
Yes. A careful general checkup, meticulous scaling, professional whitening and everyday dental concerns are central to the clinic—not add-ons to more expensive treatment.
Will I be pressured into expensive treatment?
Care starts with an examination and explanation. Dr. Kang discusses clinically appropriate priorities, options, timing and costs so you can choose what fits your needs and travel schedule.
Do you speak English?
Yes. Dr. Kang is fluent in English and consultations can be conducted in English. Staff can also assist with basic English communication.
Can you help if tooth trouble happens during my trip?
Yes. Use urgent dental chat or call during clinic hours for triage and scheduling. If you have breathing or swallowing difficulty, major facial trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, or rapidly spreading swelling with fever, call Korea 119 or go to an emergency department.
How long should I stay in Korea for treatment?
It depends on diagnosis. A checkup, scaling or whitening may fit a short stay, while complex treatment can require multiple visits. Send your dates for realistic scheduling guidance.
Can I get a plan before I arrive?
Photos and recent X-rays can support preliminary scheduling guidance. Final diagnosis, timing and fees are confirmed after an in-person examination.
What payment methods are accepted?
Cash in Korean won and major credit cards including Visa and Mastercard are accepted.
What if I have concerns after returning home?
You will receive aftercare guidance and can contact the clinic through Online Chat for follow-up questions and next-step advice.
