Question 1

I started my orthodontic treatment without any prior knowledge in middle school, and I completed it by the time I graduated high school, but my jaw has not changed at all and seems even smaller, which disappoints me. Should I consider undergoing treatment again?

Accepted Answer

Hello :) Many patients visit our hospital for re-correction after being dissatisfied with their orthodontic treatment at other facilities. Re-correction is important as the teeth have already shifted, and it must be done without damaging the roots. Thus, selecting the right dental professional is critical. Our hospital features a Health and Welfare Ministry certified orthodontist who provides individual responsibility for treatment and offers a 10-year maintenance program post-treatment, so you can feel assured and seek consultation.

Question 2

My front teeth are protruding, and despite having had the existing teeth filed down and replaced, the protrusion remains. I recently visited a dental clinic near my home for a consultation, and they said that orthodontics would be difficult. I am always stressed because of my front teeth.

Accepted Answer

Hello :) Our hospital is staffed with a Health and Welfare Ministry certified orthodontist. Many cases improve not only the alignment of teeth but also the protrusion of the lips and facial contours by moving the roots of the teeth as well. An accurate diagnosis and treatment plan will be provided through a personal consultation during your visit.

Question 3

Is the cost 150,000 won per month? For how many months?

Accepted Answer

Hello :) To ease the burden of payment, we offer an installment plan of 150,000 won per month. The total costs can vary for partial and full orthodontic treatment depending on the complexity of the dental case. Our medical team will provide detailed information based on an accurate diagnosis :)

Question 4

What is the expected cost of orthodontic treatment? How long does the treatment take?

Accepted Answer

Hello :) To ease the burden of payment, we offer an installment plan of 150,000 won per month. The total costs can vary for partial and full orthodontic treatment depending on the complexity of the dental case. Our medical team will provide detailed information based on an accurate diagnosis :)

Question 5

I have a protruding jaw, and my face is quite long. I'm concerned that correcting the protrusion will make my face appear even longer. However, it seems that the ceramic dentistry advertisements suggest that the facial line can also be corrected. Is it possible for the treatment to make my face appear shorter?

Accepted Answer

Hello :) Our hospital is specialized not just in aligning teeth but also in making improvements to overall facial balance through special devices that move the roots of the teeth during orthodontic treatment. The specifics you inquired about can be accurately addressed through a precise examination, so please visit us for more detailed information :)

Question 6

I am 55 years old and currently undergoing implant treatment; can I still get orthodontic treatment? I have a protruding jaw.

Accepted Answer

Hello :) If you are concerned about age and implants, we currently have patients in their 60s undergoing orthodontic treatment at our clinic. It is possible to correct teeth even with implants, and any concerns can be addressed through a free examination and an accurate diagnosis from our medical team.

Question 7

I live in Jeolla. How many times a month do I need to visit the dentist? Is it possible to have orthodontics even if I have a crown on my tooth?

Accepted Answer

Hello :) It is possible to have orthodontic treatment even with dental prostheses, and some patients travel from Jeju Island to visit us once a month. For cases suitable for Invisalign, patients can visit once every 2 to 3 months, significantly reducing the burden of traveling from distant regions :)

Question 8

In the past, when I wanted to get orthodontics, another dental clinic examined me and told me that I would need to have jaw surgery in conjunction with the treatment. Is it possible to proceed with orthodontics without surgery?

Accepted Answer

Hello :) In cases of protruding lips or facial asymmetry, if the issue stems from the teeth rather than the bones, it can be improved with braces without surgery. Instead of starting with surgery, it is advisable to seek detailed guidance through an accurate diagnosis from our medical team.

Question 9

I have jaw joint pain due to malocclusion. Are there ways to treat this without surgery? How long will the treatment take?

Accepted Answer

Hello :) The treatment methods vary by dental cases, so we appreciate your understanding that our medical team can provide detailed information through an accurate diagnosis. Please feel free to visit us for a free examination and consultation :)

Question 10

How painful is the orthodontic procedure?

Accepted Answer

Hello :) The pain felt during orthodontic treatment varies greatly from person to person, making it difficult to define what is considered 'normal'. However, many young elementary school students are currently receiving treatment well, so it seems they adapt and feel better once they get used to the initial placement of the braces :)

Question 11

How much will it cost?

Accepted Answer

Hello:) The cost you inquired about can be divided into monthly payments of 150,000 won to ease the burden of a one-time payment. The total cost varies depending on whether it's partial or complete orthodontics, based on the case of the teeth. We will provide detailed assistance through an accurate diagnosis by our medical staff.:)

Question 12

Given my age, which is better: braces or implants?

Accepted Answer

Hello:) Rather than stating that one method, such as orthodontics, laminates, or implants, is better than another, it's important to note that treatment methods differ significantly based on each individual case. It would be beneficial to have an examination first to determine the appropriate treatment for your specific dental situation.:) We offer free examinations and consultations, so please feel free to visit us for a dental check-up:)

Question 13

I've had braces once, but my front teeth have moved forward. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

Hello:) If you have experienced issues despite maintaining your retention device after orthodontic treatment, it is possible to improve the situation through re-treatment following an examination.:)

Question 14

Thank you, and I look forward to your assistance.

Accepted Answer

Hello:) It seems you have visited our hospital!! We will always provide diligent care and do our best in your treatment. Thank you :)

Question 15

After giving birth, when can I start treatment? Just for reference, I have one missing front tooth, and I think I might need both implants and braces.

Accepted Answer

Hello:) An X-ray is required for orthodontic consultations, so we recommend you proceed with the treatment after finishing breastfeeding post-delivery. Those undergoing orthodontics can also benefit from a 20% additional discount to alleviate the burden of costs for cavity treatment and implants, which you may find helpful.:)

Question 16

Is it possible to undergo braces treatment while I have implants?

Accepted Answer

Hello:) Our dental clinic currently has patients in their 60s who have undergone implants and are also receiving orthodontic treatment. If you have any additional questions or concerns, we will provide detailed assistance through free examinations and accurate diagnoses by our medical staff.:)

Question 17

I am curious about the costs.

Accepted Answer

Hello:) The cost you inquired about can be divided into monthly payments of 150,000 won to ease the burden of a one-time payment. The total cost varies depending on whether it's partial or complete orthodontics, based on the case of the teeth. We will provide detailed assistance through an accurate diagnosis by our medical staff.:)

Question 18

Due to a traffic accident, my teeth have become misaligned, and the insurance company has provided a payment guarantee for orthodontic treatment. Is this possible?

Accepted Answer

Hello.. I understand that you may have been very stressed both physically and mentally due to the car accident. If you provide the accident case number and the phone number of the insurance representative during your appointment, we can confirm and proceed with the treatment. Above all, please take good care of your health, and I hope to see you in good spirits.:)

Question 19

Could you please provide an estimate for the Osstem implant, including bone grafting?

Accepted Answer

Hello:) The cost of bone grafting varies based on the extent of treatment, and we offer discounts based on the total number of teeth being treated to ease the financial burden. Please visit us for a consultation so that we can provide detailed information regarding the exact costs.:)

Question 20

I have a laminated upper tooth, is it possible to get braces? My lower teeth are crooked and I have some lip protrusion, so I’m wondering. If I only do the lower teeth, will that affect my bite? Aren't the upper and lower teeth supposed to align?

Accepted Answer

Hello:) It is possible to have orthodontic treatment even after having laminates, and we will provide detailed assistance through free examinations and accurate diagnoses by our medical staff for any concerns you may have.:)
