It has 13 dentists in five departments, three buildings totalling about 1,570 m², and an in-house lab, Oneday Lab. Its philosophy is treatment completed in fewer visits, supported by 3D CT, digital scanning and T-Scan bite analysis.

Our philosophy: treatment completed in fewer visits

Every extra appointment costs patients time off work, travel and, for many, anxiety. Since 2002 the clinic has organised its people, equipment and lab so that treatment can be completed in fewer visits without skipping steps. Accurate diagnosis comes first; speed is only offered when the case allows it.

That is why the clinic invests in 3D CT, intraoral scanning, CAD/CAM milling and its own lab. About 60% of implant patients travel from outside Seoul, and many international patients plan around fixed dates, so fewer visits makes a real difference. See our international patients guide.

Things to know before you decide

  • Fewer visits is a goal, not a promise: bone grafts, conventional implants and orthodontics still need healing or adjustment time.
  • One-day prosthetics depend on the case; the dentist confirms after examination.
  • Estimates given on WhatsApp are provisional until an in-person exam and 3D CT.
  • The clinic handles all inquiries on WhatsApp only; there is no phone line or contact form.

FAQ

About Us: common questions

How long has the clinic been operating?
Since May 2002, when it opened in Gangnam as Seongnyeok Town Dental Clinic. It became Seoul Rembrandt Dental in 2006, Seoul Water Drop Dental in 2008 and ONEDAY Dental in 2009. That is 24 years of continuous practice in Gangnam.
What does "One Day" mean in the name?
It describes the clinic's philosophy: treatment completed in fewer visits. With an in-house lab, 3D CT and digital scanning, some prosthetics can go from temporary to final in one day, and immediate-load implants are possible when bone allows. Not every case can be finished in a day; the dentist explains what is realistic.
Who is the chief director?
Dr. Kim Jin-hwan, who focuses on implant surgery, T-Scan occlusion therapy and TMJ. He is Vice President of the Korean Academy of Stomatognathic Function and Occlusion for 2026-2027 and authored a chapter on controlling the occlusion of implant-supported restorations in an IGI Global T-Scan handbook.
Which treatments does the clinic provide?
Implants (single, full-mouth, immediate-load), bone grafting, crowns, bridges, laminates and veneers (prep and no-prep), whitening, orthodontics for adults and children, gum treatment, TMJ, snoring and sleep care, water-drop laser treatment and an oral bacteria DNA test, across five departments.
Can I use my travel or overseas dental insurance?
Coverage depends on your insurer and policy. Ask your insurer which documents they need before treatment, then ask the clinic on WhatsApp whether those documents can be provided. Many overseas policies reimburse you after you pay, so keep all receipts and treatment details.
How do I contact the clinic?
Only by WhatsApp at +82-10-5298-2875, in English, Chinese, Japanese or Korean. The clinic does not take phone calls or web forms, so every plan, estimate and appointment is confirmed in writing. Include an X-ray or photos if you have a specific concern.
