Dental care for U.S. service members & families in Korea
Stationed in Korea and need a dentist you can actually talk to? We treat members of the U.S. military community with the same promise we make every international patient: you'll understand your diagnosis, your options, and your exact cost, in English, before anything happens.
Why military patients come here
Straight answers, real documentation, no surprises
- We've cared for U.S. service members stationed in Korea, including full-arch implant treatment completed across planned visits
- Patients enrolled in the TDP can receive care here and submit eligible treatment for reimbursement
- English from your first WhatsApp message to your written aftercare instructions, with no translator and no guesswork
- Every price is published on this site in won (with approximate USD), and your full cost is quoted in writing before treatment starts
- Evening hours Tuesday and Wednesday until 9 PM, plus Saturday mornings, so appointments can work around duty schedules
- Conscious sedation available for surgical treatment, after a medical screening
Off-post care
Can U.S. military families use TRICARE at an off-post Korean dentist?
Yes. Patients enrolled in the TRICARE Dental Program can receive treatment at our clinic, pay the clinic directly, and submit eligible care to United Concordia for reimbursement. Eligible command-sponsored OCONUS family members have a 0% member cost-share for many covered categories, which can mean up to 100% plan payment for those services. Crowns, implants, prosthodontics, and some other services have different cost-shares, limits, and exclusions, so confirm the exact benefit before treatment.

TRICARE claims
How we help with your TRICARE paperwork
Send us the claim form, template, or document checklist your plan requires. We can prepare the dental portions in English, including itemized receipts, treatment records, procedure dates and amounts, and a copy of the dentist's license when United Concordia requests it.
- 1
Check your coverage first
Overseas dental coverage depends on your specific TRICARE plan and status, so confirm with TRICARE what's claimable before treatment, so there are no surprises on either side.
- 2
Get your written quote
Before treatment, you receive the full cost in writing (in won, with approximate USD), so you can verify claimability against your plan's terms.

We prepare your claim documentation
After treatment, we provide itemized English receipts and treatment records covering procedure details, dates, and amounts. Send us your required form or format and we will complete the dentist and treatment sections; we can also provide a copy of the dentist's license if United Concordia requests it for the claim.

TRICARE, in plain terms
Common questions from the military community
Coverage always depends on your plan. These answers tell you honestly what we can and can't do, and what to check before you book.
Does TRICARE cover dental treatment at a Korean civilian clinic?
Patients enrolled in the TRICARE Dental Program can receive treatment at our clinic and submit eligible care to United Concordia for reimbursement. Eligible command-sponsored OCONUS family members have a 0% member cost-share for many covered service categories, which can mean up to 100% plan payment for those services; crowns, implants, prosthodontics, and some other services have different cost-shares, limits, and exclusions. Active-duty members may also need authorization before civilian care, and retirees usually use separate dental coverage. Confirm your exact benefit before treatment.
Do you bill TRICARE directly?
We do not bill TRICARE directly. Patients pay the clinic directly (international cards and Korean bank transfer are accepted) and then file with United Concordia for eligible reimbursement. Send us the claim form, template, or document checklist you need: we will prepare itemized English receipts and treatment records, complete the dentist and treatment sections, and provide a copy of the dentist's license if United Concordia requests it.
How do I get to the clinic, and when can I come?
We are by Samsong Station Exit 3 on Seoul Subway Line 3 in Goyang, about half an hour from central Seoul, with two hours of free underground parking if you drive. Evening hours run until 9 PM on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, plus Saturday mornings until 2 PM, so appointments can fit around a duty schedule.
What happens to my treatment if I PCS or deploy mid-way?
We plan multi-stage treatment like implants around your known dates from the start and stay reachable on WhatsApp between visits. If you move, you leave with complete English records: X-rays, procedure notes, and material specifications, so the next dentist who treats you can pick up exactly where we left off.

From a patient feedback form
“I received multiple dental implants. It was a wonderful experience at Seoul Today Dental. Dr. Doh is the best and so is Tommy and staff. … If you are in or coming to Korea and need dental treatment come to Seoul Today Dental Clinic.”
