The Ryugyong Dental Hospital is active in introducing new technical successes into treatment.
Among them is a complete denture prosthesis method.
Its medical workers made an in-depth study of the completely toothless old patients, who felt uncomfortable even after dentures were put in, and succeeded in developing a functional impression tray for edentulous jaw by overcoming technical limitations of impression, the first process in making artificial teeth. They also developed an advanced complete denture prosthesis method using it.
According to doctor Ri Su Rim, the method ensures successful prosthesis for the cases with poor alveolar yoke.
The hospital also introduced various analysis apps to increase the efficiency of orthodontic therapy by dint of radiograph.
A new app for assessing the ages of patients from the skiagrams of their hands makes it possible to select the suitable time for applying orthodontic therapy.
Dentists also introduced some advanced methods for treating children’s caries and applying implants.
In addition, the hospital developed some dental materials, medicines and small medical appliances.
It ensured the domestic production of alum-silk gingival retraction cord, a medical supply made from alum and silk thread, and MTA for protecting gingival nerves during treatment.
A solution for treating periodontitis made from rhubarb that is abundant in the country, a plaque indicator and a sinus lifting instrument also prove effective in practice.
