Clinical interests
Discussing your priorities with Dr. Dong-ok Kang
Ask for a diagnosis and a staged treatment plan before committing to irreversible work. Restoring oral health may require attention to gums, bite and existing decay as well as appearance. Discuss the expected lifespan, maintenance, repair options and limitations of each proposed restoration.
Bring available dental X-rays, implant records and a medication list. For implants, orthodontics or extensive restorative work, clarify the number of visits, healing stages and what a dentist at home will need to continue care.
Make the consultation useful
Before meeting Dr. Dong-ok Kang, write down your main concern, how long it has affected you, what you have already tried and what a worthwhile improvement would mean in everyday life. Bring relevant clinical records and a list of medicines, supplements and allergies. If you have had earlier treatment, include the dates and any complications.
- What can be preserved before replacing or reshaping a tooth?
- What are the stages and total visits?
- What maintenance or replacement may be needed?
- Which records will I receive for my dentist at home?
Ask the doctor to explain the reasoning behind the proposed plan, including alternatives and the option of not proceeding. Confirm who will perform the treatment, who will review your recovery and how to obtain help outside the planned visits. For care abroad, discuss the follow-up arrangements before paying for treatment or booking a return flight.
