Care first.
Travel second.
A considered itinerary gives your dentist time to assess, treat and review—and gives you room to recover.
Before you commit
Send recent records and a clear description of your concern. Ask who will diagnose and treat you. Request alternatives, an itemised estimate and the expected number of visits.
Before you travel
Confirm appointment dates, interpretation needs, medical history and medication instructions directly with the provider. Keep accommodation and return travel flexible until your plan is confirmed.
While in Seoul
Allow time for examination and consent before irreversible work. Attend the planned review and ask how healing could alter the schedule. Obtain written aftercare that you can understand.
When you return home
Keep radiographs, the treatment summary and implant details if relevant. Arrange maintenance with a local dentist and clarify how urgent problems and additional costs will be handled.
