EPODA 시스템이란? 잠실 K케이치과 3대를 이어온 보건복지부지정 인증치과병원

Oral and Systemic Integrated Treatment EPODA

This is an integrated treatment system containing the know-how of four prominent dental families that diagnose dental symptoms and the condition of the body from an integrated perspective.

Did you know that if your teeth hurt, your whole body hurts?

We think that as long as our teeth are visibly straight and healthy, that is enough, but that is not the case.

The cause of chronic pain is occlusion? That makes no sense.

As long as I brush my teeth properly, wouldn't it be fine for daily life?

Gum disease as a cause of systemic disease? It doesn't really resonate with me.

Will it really end with just the oral cavity? As the oral cavity serves as a passageway connecting our body to the outside world, we must not overlook the connection between the mouth and the body.

If you want to take your health into consideration one more time, this is K Dental Clinic's EPODA system for whole-body integrated treatment.

It is a system that provides an integrated diagnosis of not only the teeth but also the condition of the entire body, tracking and treating the root cause of the problem.

Why should the oral cavity and the whole body be considered together?

Just as a machine ceases to function if even a single part breaks, a slight imbalance in our body causes the overall balance to be disrupted. K Dental Clinic understands the interactions of each organ in our body and approaches treatment accordingly to help you maintain overall health.

Dental occlusion is the center of overall balance

Small misalignments in teeth that you might have dismissed as insignificant can cause oral and systemic imbalances.

Oral bacteria that cause systemic diseases

Oral bacteria do not stop at periodontal disease. They are closely linked to systemic diseases such as stroke, pneumonia, and diabetes.

Dental occlusion is the balance of the human body.

Dental occlusion is the center of overall balance

Systemic problems caused by misaligned teeth

Typically, individuals with unstable occlusion exhibit facial asymmetry and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) imbalance; it is precisely this TMJ imbalance caused by occlusal issues that affects the head's center of gravity, thereby disrupting the body's overall balance.

Dental occlusion misalignment

Speech disorders, reduced chewing ability, facial asymmetry, temporomandibular joint disorders, etc.

Shoulder tilt

Stiff neck, shoulder stiffness, shoulder disorders, chronic pain, etc.

Scoliosis / Pelvic instability

Spinal disorders, pelvic disorders, chronic pain, decreased reproductive function, etc.

Brain and nervous system abnormalities

Migraines, insomnia, tinnitus, dizziness, paresthesia, etc.

Respiratory and digestive system disorders

Indigestion, snoring, sleep apnea, rhinitis, etc.

Knee and foot imbalance

Knee disorders, ankle disorders, chronic pain, walking problems, etc.

For the human body to maintain balance, it is very important to ensure that the molars on both sides bite together properly.

Implants that are not designed with occlusion in mind cannot withstand occlusal loads, leading to easy deformation and potentially causing various side effects such as cavities, periodontal disease, and temporomandibular joint disorders. Consequently, this is why more careful occlusal adjustment is required during the implant procedure.

The ultimate goal of K Dental Clinic's treatment is to achieve a normal occlusion and stabilize the balance of the jaw and the human body.

The medical staff at K Dental Clinic, who have researched holistic dentistry for over 30 years, provide treatment to stabilize occlusion based on extensive clinical know-how.

Will it really end with just a dental problem?

Oral bacteria that cause systemic diseases

Oral bacteria are closely linked to systemic diseases such as stroke, pneumonia, and diabetes.

The area between our teeth and gums contains countless microvessels, and if this area weakens due to oral disease, these microvessels can rupture. When this happens, some of the plaque and bacteria travel through the bloodstream and circulate throughout the body, potentially causing heart disease, pneumonia, rheumatoid arthritis, and other ailments.

Oral tissues are destroyed by periodontal disease or pulpitis.

As periodontal disease becomes chronic, inflammatory cytokines are continuously produced.

Oral bacteria and inflammatory cytokines spread throughout the body via the bloodstream, gradually causing organs to become diseased.

Systemic diseases develop as the cause is not found or is left untreated.

Systemic disease caused by bacteria in the oral cavity

The academic community has long been paying attention to the link between oral health and systemic diseases such as heart disease and stroke. If the oral cavity, which acts as a tunnel for our body, is not properly cared for, viruses and bacteria can enter the body and cause various problems.

Oral health is closely linked to our overall health. At K Dental Clinic, manage the harmful bacteria in your mouth that are difficult to control with brushing alone more thoroughly.

Proper oral hygiene education, including brushing and flossing techniques

What is needed to maintain lifelong oral health is not insurance, but regular checkups.

The oral cavity is the only visible organ in the human body and serves as the gateway that determines overall health; it would not be an exaggeration to say that protecting your teeth is tantamount to protecting your overall health for the rest of your life. We will do our utmost to assist you in maintaining your overall health while minimizing dental visits.

Even if you are confident that you have no dental problems, we recommend regular dental checkups and preventive oral care.

Treatment is provided after identifying early signs of systemic diseases, nutritional deficiencies, and unhealthy habits such as smoking or drinking through an oral examination.

We will contribute to lifelong oral and overall health by educating people of all age groups to develop proper brushing and oral care habits.

Corrects your healthy life.
