Explore the clinic >Clinical profile
Dr. Insu Kim is the chief director of Lime Tree Dental Hospital and is presented by the hospital as an implant-focused clinician. The hospital’s multidisciplinary team also includes restorative, orthodontic and conservative dentistry clinicians. For a patient with several missing or compromised teeth, this makes coordination between surgery and the final reconstruction an important consultation topic.
Education and professional background
The biography lists a doctorate in dentistry from Dankook University, additional implant training at Harvard and Boston University, and former adjunct appointments at Dankook University and the Catholic University of Korea. Professional memberships include implantology and prosthodontic organisations. The published profile describes implant care and second-opinion consultations as areas of focus.
A consultation with this clinical focus
Ask how the intended final tooth position determines implant placement and whether the proposed number of implants is appropriate for the design. For full-arch treatment, discuss fixed versus removable options, lip support, cleaning and repair. Request an explanation of the provisional period and how the team will decide that healing and bite function are ready for the final restoration.
What to prepare
Bring your previous scans and implant records, especially if a revision is being considered. Tell the team how often you can return to Korea. Ask for the brand and dimensions of any implants placed, a written staged quotation and instructions for maintenance. Clarify which clinician will review the restoration as well as the surgical site.
Implant care within the wider team
As chief director with an implant-focused profile, Dr. Kim sits within a team that also lists prosthodontic, orthodontic and conservative-dentistry clinicians. This distinction matters when implant placement is only one stage of a larger reconstruction. Ask who will design and fit the final teeth, how the bite will be checked, and who handles maintenance once the surgical phase has ended. His university appointments are described as former positions; the current published role is chief director at Lime Tree.
