[Orthodontic Review] Comparison between Adolescents and Adults

[Orthodontic Review] Comparison between Adolescents and Adults

 

I am undergoing orthodontic treatment with my teenage daughter and two adult sons.

My daughter couldn't break her habit of sucking her fingers.

The gap between the teeth widened, and when I asked the doctor, it was a complex, so I made an appointment for a hospital consultation.

 

I made the difficult decision to proceed on the very day of the initial consultation.

I was burdened by the fact that four healthy teeth had to be removed due to lack of space caused by large teeth.

Your own doctor says it's important, so they will proceed immediately without hesitation.

It started like that.

 

It's been almost two years now, and they say it can be completed by this fall or winter.

Even now, when I check visually, everything looks neat and satisfying, but I always keep a rubber ring on during the finishing stage.

 

Advantages of orthodontic correction during adolescence: The younger the age, the faster the teeth and gums recede, leading to quicker tooth movement, so starting orthodontic treatment during growth periods results in a shorter overall correction period.

My daughter easily had screws inserted into her bones, but my son, being an adult man and stronger, couldn't screw them in the same way in the desired spot.

A screw (support) was driven into the lane.

We both had orthodontic treatment with Clippy C.

 

 

💛 Price and cost

There are big differences between hospitals.

The cost of dental treatment materials can vary from 3 million to 7 million won depending on the treatment method.

But you shouldn't fall for event special prices or cheap deals.

The treatment period may be extended and additional costs may be requested.

We visit once a month without any additional costs. (Of course, orthodontic toothbrushes, toothpaste, and other tools may be included separately.)

 

💛Correction period

It varies depending on the condition for 2-3 years, and our daughter took 2 years, but it seems it can be finished this fall or winter.
