does anyone know which clinic is the best for cosmetic dental work?? i know there are some clinics with english speaking dentists, but would like to know who (regardless of language) is the best for getting porcelain veneers? i hear it's a lot cheaper here, though i don't know exactly how much...anyone have any idea?
i'm just worried about going to some foreigner's clinic and have really bad veneers put in cuz for them to look good the dentist would need to have a good esthetics sense about what size/colour/technique/etc etc....anyway, would really really appreciate some advice!

Lilyinabottle, have you had any luck finding an excellent dentist to do your veneers? Just lost a crown....

I'm in Seoul this year, but last year I was in Bucheon and had 6 dental crowns put on by an English-speaking dentist there right next to my old hagwon (not an international clinic, so its usually a lot cheaper). I'm not sure the name of the place, but I had Dr. Ran Park, she was superb. I can give you directions to the place if you want to scope it out.

I went to 'Trueden' in Ilsan last week. They have an English website. And I have been there previously in 2007. Good service & reasonably priced, with a fluent English speaking dentist, who trained in Chicago.

For other choices in and around Seoul, see:

His prices are very reasonable and his work is fantastic.

Hey all, thanks for all the feedback. However, it now turns out that I'll need more than a crown since I also lost most of the tooth which I'm told cannot be saved. Unfortunately, dental implants here I come... Dr. Love, I'll try your guy for a second opinion.
