[Lee Boram Orthodontics and Dental Clinic, Dongnae] I originally didn't plan on getting braces, but after a consultation, I'm considering it.[2]
I had crooked teeth and my front teeth were very crooked, so I had to cover my mouth with my hand when I smiled and lacked self-confidence. However, I was worried because of my age and doubts about the effectiveness of orthodontics. While talking to my best friend about my concerns, she encouraged me, saying that since I have many years ahead of me, wouldn't it be better to get braces and live happily with confidence? I heard that orthodontic treatment requires frequent visits to the clinic, so I was looking for a skilled clinic close to home. I discovered Lee Boram Orthodontics and Dental Clinic in Dongnae, so I mustered up the courage to knock on the door, had X-rays taken, and received a consultation. Since I am not young, the process takes a long time, and because the teeth have a strong tendency to revert to their original state, a cautious approach is required. They provided a very detailed consultation, including before and after photos of similar cases. I am seriously considering orthodontics, thinking about the difficulties of having to wear braces for nearly three years and other factors.
합격기원 26.05.29Views 15Likes 1 What is the reason for wearing a retainer for a long time even after orthodontic treatment is finished?[2]
I thought it would be over right after the orthodontic treatment was finished, but I noticed that there are more people who wear their retainers for a longer time than I thought. I was surprised to see quite a few posts saying they have been experiencing this every night for several years.
이하린26.05.29Views 18Likes 0 (Seoul Saei Dental Clinic) A review of deciding to get braces again after much deliberation, even though I originally didn't intend to.[6]
I had braces a long time ago, but over time, my teeth have started to shift slightly again. In particular, my lower teeth move unevenly, and I can see that they are significantly misaligned even without opening my mouth wide. Even though I knew my teeth were misaligned, I didn't want to get braces again at first. As anyone who has had braces knows, first of all, the process is too long! It's painful, and since you have to visit the dentist every month, it's not easy to do it again. I was hesitant because of the cost and the thought of having to wear braces for a few more years. Honestly, it was stressful having to do it again after already struggling for several years. I kept worrying about it, but then I ended up visiting my regular dental clinic for a check-up. The director, who has known me for a long time, recommended re-correction during the check-up. It is a hospital that my whole family, including myself, visits together. The director adjusted the cost and gave me a detailed consultation on how things could change after the correction. Actually, I also felt that my teeth were crooked, but My mind changed when the doctor at the hospital recommended orthodontic retreatment first. The hospital is a place called Saei Dental Clinic in Seocho-gu, Seoul. This dental clinic specializes in orthodontics, so it only provides orthodontic treatment. That shows just how confident and sincere the director is about orthodontics! First of all, when I had my orthodontic retreatment, I had partial retreatment only on my lower teeth, rather than full correction of both upper and lower teeth. They suggested setting the timeframe at about one to one and a half years. Since it took me a whole three years to get braces the first time, I thought I could easily endure about a year and a half, so the duration wasn't a big burden for me. Bracket attached (Lower teeth are misaligned and scraped to the left) Since orthodontic treatment is performed while monitoring tooth movement, it is not done with a fixed duration. Once I actually started the orthodontic treatment, it took a bit longer than expected. The re-correction took two years. I have a jaw joint problem, so it took me a little longer. Looking back now Honestly, at first, I was a bit stressed because the orthodontic treatment period kept getting longer, but Now that my braces are finished, I feel like I made the right decision to do it. After re-correction My teeth became straight again after the re-orthodontic treatment, so it was worth the effort. You can clearly see the difference just by looking at the photos. True to its reputation as an orthodontic specialist, Saei Dental Clinic successfully completed the retreatment as well! I felt so relieved after doing it, and I didn't have any stress since I didn't have to constantly check my crooked teeth. My orthodontic treatment was successfully completed, so I continue to visit Saei Dental Clinic regularly for checkups. In fact, even if orthodontic treatment is completed successfully, the teeth may shift somewhat over time, causing the alignment to become slightly misaligned. Those of you who, like me, have severely misaligned teeth will likely be very self-conscious because you have already undergone orthodontic treatment. So, I expect there are many people considering re-correction. Based on my personal experience, if partial correction is possible rather than full correction and your gum condition is not bad, I would cautiously recommend retreatment!

hello! SmileD Dental Clinic, Chief Director Oh Su-hwan It is. 😊 Have you visited three or four dental clinics while considering braces? Some places charge 4 million won, others 7 million won... It just gets more and more confusing. 🤯 "Are you worried about being ripped off?" A practicing doctor will clear up that anxiety for you! 1️⃣ What is the real reason why orthodontic prices vary so widely from dental clinic to dental clinic? ✨ This is because orthodontics is not merely 'shopping,' but a sophisticated 'medical procedure' tailored to the patient's condition. Orthodontic treatment means more than just choosing a device. Just as construction costs vary depending on the ground conditions when building a structure, the difficulty of orthodontic treatment is determined by each patient's unique gum bone condition and tooth root length. 🔸 Key Points ✔️ Intrinsic difficulty of the case: The higher the difficulty of the case, the higher the cost. ⚠️ Risk of re-correction: If you only look for the cheapest option, your teeth may not move properly, and you might end up having to pay more for retreatment! 📌 Orthodontic treatment is not just a simple expense Medical practice The price difference is rooted in the medical staff's expertise and sense of responsibility. 2️⃣ How does the cost vary depending on which orthodontic device is selected? ✨ The price structure varies depending on the degree of exposure of the device, the manufacturing method, and the technical expertise involved. Orthodontic appliances are 'tools' used to move teeth. The type of tool used is a major factor in determining the cost. 🛠️ 🔹 labial correction — Attached to the outer surface of the teeth, the most popular and reasonable option 👍 🔹 Lingual braces — Attached to the inner surface of the tooth; cost 1.5 to 2 times higher due to advanced technology and custom fabrication. 🔹 Clear braces (Invisalign) — Detachable, aesthetically pleasing, includes digital simulation + global license fees 🔹 Why is lingual braces expensive? 🤫 Since the wire must be adjusted in the narrow space inside the tooth High level of proficiency of medical staff And a long treatment time is required. 🔹 Why is Invisalign expensive? 💻 Computer simulations are conducted based on 3D digital scan data, and of state-of-the-art materials Precision manufacturing of transparent molds This is because... ⚠️ Rather than the type of device The doctor's skill level and precision of diagnosis It has a greater impact on the treatment results. 3️⃣ What are the 3 criteria for finding the perfect orthodontic treatment for me? ✨ An expensive device is not necessarily the answer.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q1. Should I avoid dental clinics that offer promotions with excessively low prices? It's not necessarily bad, but caution is required! ⚠️ Operating on a high-volume, low-margin basis makes it difficult for medical staff to focus on a single patient, and The attending physician may change frequently. Aftercare may be unstable. Q2. Can anyone use clear aligners? Although technology has improved and the scope has expanded, In cases of severe skeletal disharmony In this case, traditional wire orthodontics can produce more precise results. 🩺 Q3. What are the additional costs besides the proofreading fee? It varies from dental clinic to clinic, so be sure to check in advance!

오수환 원장26.05.27Views 301Likes 1 Things I regret about orthodontic treatment for my protruding mouth[1]
I've been thinking about getting braces for over 10 years. I just gave up. Just wearing a mask made me feel a bit freer from my protruding mouth. I think I took the downsides of orthodontics too seriously. The tooth root shortens. I experience tooth sensitivity. The possibility that I might have to wear a retainer for the rest of my life I gave up after just thinking about it because of these worries. If I went back to that time, I think I would just give it a try. ... ^^;;; My mouth shape is so weird every time I speak 😭
:D26.05.26Views 18Likes 1 I kept putting off braces at White Dream Dental Clinic Gangnam Branch because I was scared, but I changed my mind after a consultation.[13]
I was concerned about the alignment of my teeth, but To be honest, I was more scared of braces. There was also a financial burden. Since the duration was long, I wondered if I really needed to do it. Then, I became self-conscious about covering my mouth every time I took a picture, and In the end, I made a consultation appointment at the White Dream Dental Clinic in Gangnam. At White Dream Dental Clinic Gangnam Branch While showing the current condition of the teeth first I explained in detail the reasons why correction is necessary and how to do it. What I particularly remember is Rather than doing things unconditionally fast, it is important to find a method that suits you. That is what it meant. I was getting scared for no reason. After receiving counseling, I realized that the burden wasn't as great as I thought. I haven't started orthodontic treatment yet, but The idea that it is unconditionally scary like before has disappeared. If you have similar concerns, I would highly recommend getting some counseling.
민트홀릭26.05.26Views 40Likes 1 Does getting braces really change your face shape?[2]
I have a slightly protruding mouth, so I am considering orthodontic treatment. When I look at before-treatment photos, I see many people whose facial impression seems to have changed not only in tooth alignment but also in their overall appearance. In particular, there are many reviews saying that the profile looks prettier as the mouth recedes, and there are also comments about the jawline looking more defined or the face appearing smaller, so I'm looking forward to it but also curious. On the other hand, there are also reviews saying that the cheeks looked thinner or the face looked longer after correction, so I am confused about what kind of changes occur. Has anyone had braces?
담율로26.05.25Views 32Likes 2 Gum recession problems during orthodontic treatment[1]
Is there a high chance of gum recession after orthodontic treatment? I've seen a lot of people struggling with gum problems after getting braces. I've seen cases like that even when done by a certified orthodontist. I envy people the most for having straight teeth without needing braces.

I've had a habit of clenching my teeth since I was young, and recently my jaw has been really stiff. They say that when they wake up in the morning, their jaw feels heavy, and in severe cases, it feels like it is pulling all the way to their temples, and they also grind their teeth while sleeping.

Please make sure to do your research before you do it.
아하26.05.23Views 69Likes 1 Review of starting orthodontic treatment after a consultation for protruding mouth at Grace Dental Clinic[15]
My mouth usually sticks out a little, so I was self-conscious about my profile whenever I took photos. I was worried because I felt like my mouth wouldn't close naturally even when I smiled, so I decided to get a consultation for protruding mouth correction at Grace Dental Clinic. At first, I hesitated because I thought the orthodontic treatment would be long and uncomfortable, but after the detailed examination, you explained my current dental condition and the cause of my protruding mouth in detail, which made it easy to understand. I felt confident because you thoroughly explained the expected changes, duration, and precautions after the correction. At first, I felt a pulling sensation in my teeth and it was a bit uncomfortable when eating, but I got used to it after a few days. Above all, I am consistently receiving treatment because I am looking forward to seeing a change in my profile as my protruding mouth improves. I am still undergoing orthodontic treatment, but I am satisfied because I can see my teeth gradually becoming aligned. If you are concerned about a protruding mouth, I recommend consulting a specialist first rather than worrying alone. I am so satisfied that I even think I should have started sooner.
뽀또26.05.23Views 99Likes 4 Is the procedure effective in addition to forward head posture correction treatment?[6]
I feel like my forward head posture is getting worse lately, so I am looking into posture correction procedures. Since I spend a lot of time looking at the computer monitor I felt like my neck was jutting forward quite a bit, and my shoulders kept feeling stiff. It's frustrating that my posture looks bad, too. If you sit for a long time, you might even get a headache. I do try stretching and exercising regularly, but I felt like I had reached my limit managing it alone. So, I am looking into not only procedures but also treatments such as posture correction, manual therapy, and Chuna manual therapy. Especially those who have received turtle neck correction procedures or treatments I'm curious if you really felt the change in your posture. Have your neck stiffness or shoulder pain also improved? I would like to know how many sessions it takes to see a change, and whether I need to exercise to maintain the results. I have a forward head posture and rounded shoulders, so it causes a lot of discomfort in my daily life. I would appreciate it if you could share the information.

An acquaintance because of their eye shape I heard that you received a consultation at ID Hospital. I was impressed that they checked the strength of the eye opening first, rather than the double eyelid line. You explained the difference between cases where eye shape correction is necessary and cases where it is not strictly required. The counseling itself was calmer than I expected.
영선이26.05.19Views 48Likes 1 [Health Column] Partial Front Teeth Correction: Side Effects and Conditions You Must Consider Before Finishing Quickly[2]
hello, Smile D Dental Clinic of Director Oh Su-hwan no see. Where do your eyes go first when you meet someone, talk, or smile brightly? As a dentist meeting many people, I realize that the 'front teeth,' which are immediately visible when speaking or smiling, have the greatest impact on one's impression. If your front teeth are crooked or stick out, your mouth is likely to look protruding. This often becomes a major concern because it makes it easy to unintentionally give the impression that I am angry or sulky. Recently, as before-and-after photos of quickly correcting only the front teeth have gained popularity on social media, there has been a significant increase in the number of people seeking methods to complete treatment quickly, following the trend, instead of undergoing full orthodontic treatment. "Can't I also get just my protruding front teeth fixed quickly, instead of the full braces?" It is natural to be drawn to the low cost and short duration as you think. However, you should never take partial orthodontic treatment for the front teeth lightly. This is because an incorrect approach could worsen your appearance or lead to temporomandibular joint problems, ultimately resulting in the unfortunate setback of having to spend double the cost and time to undergo full correction again. Today, for those considering partial front tooth correction, I will clearly explain the medical criteria regarding when you can proceed with confidence and when you should absolutely avoid it! 1. What are the advantages of partial anterior correction compared to full correction? ? ✨ It drastically reduces the financial burden by cutting the time and cost to less than half compared to full correction. Full orthodontic treatment, which involves moving all the teeth, generally takes at least one year, or more than two years if tooth extraction is involved. On the other hand, because partial anterior correction focuses on moving only a few problematic teeth, 3 to 4 months at the shortest, and usually within 6 to 10 months at the longest. The treatment is completed at. Also, brackets are not attached to all teeth, but usually from canine to canine, either upper or lower Appliances only on around the 6 front teeth You will attach it. Since the number of devices attached is small, the cost is lower compared to full correction. Less than half It has the attractive advantage of being reduced to a very low economic burden. 📌 It is also full of conveniences you can experience in your daily life! The sensation of foreign objects or pain in the mouth is much less compared to full orthodontic treatment. There is no device on the molars used for chewing, so it is much more comfortable when eating. 💡 You can also choose from a variety of appliance types to suit your situation and preferences, including invisible lingual braces attached to the inside of the teeth as well as the outside, or clear aligners. 2. What are the potential side effects of getting only partial correction just because it is a trend? ✨ If the process is pushed too hard, side effects such as teeth protruding forward or tooth sensitivity may occur. . Although it appears fast and affordable on the surface, unfortunately, not all patients can achieve satisfactory results with partial anterior tooth correction. In actual clinical practice, patients undergoing partial orthodontics Less than 10% of all orthodontic patients The cases in which it can be applied are very limited to the extent that it amounts to nothing more than that. To straighten teeth, 'space' is absolutely necessary for the teeth to move safely. However, if you try to forcefully straighten the teeth using only front teeth appliances while leaving the molars as they are, there will be insufficient space. Side effect of teeth gradually moving forward (protruding) this It can happen. To prevent this, 'interdental reduction,' which involves finely grinding down the spaces between the teeth, is sometimes performed. If interproximal reduction is excessively concentrated only in the partial orthodontic area, the tooth surface becomes thin, making it difficult to eat. tooth sensitivity You must be careful, as this may appear and cause you trouble. 3. What are the criteria for success and failure of partial orthodontics based on actual treatment cases? ✨ Ignoring the limitations of the oral structure leads to lower satisfaction, but success is achieved by using the correct device following a precise diagnosis. . ❌ Disappointing failure cases In the case of one actual patient, the front teeth were severely overlapping due to a dental arch that was narrowed into a triangular (V-shape). It was recommended that the shape of the dental arch be properly widened through full correction, but At the patient's strong request, partial orthodontic treatment was performed only on the lingual side of the front teeth. I have done it. As a result, the front teeth themselves were rounded, but due to a lack of space, the teeth extended forward, disrupting the harmony with the molars and causing the canines to protrude outwards. In the end, the patient was not very satisfied and Reconsider the entire correction process. There is an unfortunate case where this happened. ⭕ Successful Treatment Cases On the other hand, for another patient who visited due to protruding front teeth, we wisely secured space for tooth movement. It slightly widens the space around the front teeth without touching any other teeth inside the mouth. Perform the 'arch expansion device' first. Partial correction was performed after that. Thanks to this, sufficient space is secured, allowing the teeth to naturally move inward without protruding. very successful results I was able to obtain. As such, a thorough preliminary diagnosis to determine whether your oral structure is truly suitable for partial orthodontics is essential above all else. 4. In what cases is partial orthodontic treatment for the front teeth recommended? ✨ It is recommended only when the amount of tooth movement or space deficiency is minimal (approximately 1–2 mm) and the molar occlusion is perfect. . From a medical perspective, there are no structural skeletal problems and only A 'slight' problem situation involving a minute lack of space of approximately 1–2 mm or requiring relocation. Partial correction is most effective in this area. 🔹 Representative types for which partial correction is recommended Slightly crooked front teeth : Cases where the degree of tooth misalignment is not severe (approximately 1–2 mm) and can be sufficiently straightened with light interproximal reduction. Slightly spaced front teeth : Cases where there is a gap of about 1mm between the incisors, or a minute gap of approximately 0.5 to 1mm between the canines and premolars that only requires closing the space. In cases where only one tooth is protruding : Cases where the overall occlusion and molar alignment are perfect, but only one front tooth is slightly protruding forward and can be gently pushed back into place. ⚠️ Conversely, in such cases, partial correction is absolutely impossible! If you have symptoms such as a protruding mouth, an underbite, an underbite where the upper and lower front teeth meet in reverse, facial asymmetry, severe crowding, a deep bite where the teeth meet too deeply, or an open bite where the teeth do not meet at all, skeletal improvement and overall occlusal adjustment are essential. In this case, the problem cannot be solved by partial correction alone, so You must proceed with full proofreading. You must do this to be safe. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q1. Can I really finish partial orthodontic treatment for my front teeth in just 6 months? A1. Yes, it is definitely possible if it is a mild case with minimal tooth movement! As short as 3 to 4 months, usually Around 6 months Surface treatment is completed neatly. However, depending on the individual's dental condition or the need for space, it may take up to 10 months. Q2. My front teeth are getting increasingly crooked as I get older. Is partial orthodontics possible for this as well? A2. There are really many people whose front teeth become misaligned due to acquired factors as their gums weaken with age. After visiting a dental clinic for a thorough diagnosis of your gums and alveolar bone, if there are no issues with molar occlusion and the misalignment of your front teeth is minor, they can be corrected through partial orthodontics. Q3. Are lingual partial braces, which are attached to the inside, completely invisible from the outside? A3. Yes, since the device is precisely attached only to the inner surface of the teeth, unless you open your mouth very wide in daily life The orthodontic device is not visible at all from the outside. Thanks to this, satisfaction is extremely high among office workers and those who frequently interact face-to-face. conclusion ✨ Suggestions for Wise Orthodontic Treatment Partial correction of front teeth It is an excellent treatment method that can dramatically reduce time and costs while significantly brightening one's appearance, provided the medical conditions are right. However, if you approach this with the sole intention of "finishing it quickly," you may experience side effects such as teeth protruding forward or a damaged bite. Even if it appears 'slightly' misaligned to the patient, a precise diagnosis reveals that in many cases, full correction is necessary due to skeletal or spatial limitations. Therefore, if you are considering partial orthodontics, we strongly recommend that you visit at least two or three dental clinics and receive a thorough consultation from an orthodontist, rather than making a hasty decision based on the advice of just one place. Finding an accurate diagnosis and medical compromise tailored to your dental condition is the sure first step to creating a beautiful smile you will never regret.

I saw advertisements for Raon Dental Clinic while passing through Hapseong-dong and decided to have a consultation. That was in 2014, and I started orthodontic treatment. I had been having a hard time due to malocclusion. From our first meeting, thanks to the detailed explanations, I felt as if my treatment was already finished, even though it hadn't even started yet. I started out wearing braces and rubber bands. It was difficult not only to eat but even to breathe. Despite this, I am grateful to the director for gradually correcting my condition and speaking to me kindly. I would also like to thank the nurses who always smiled when scheduling appointments and providing consultations; we have maintained a long-standing relationship. Yesterday, my retainer broke, so I visited and received help.

Do people generally tend to wear orthodontic retainers for a long time?[10]
When I see people who have finished orthodontic treatment I noticed that there are many cases where people wear retainers for a long time. I thought it would only last a few months. I was surprised to see cases where they have been managed for over a few years. These days, I also hear stories about doing it for a lifetime. If you don't use the retainer properly I'm curious if your teeth naturally return to their normal position quickly.

My drooping corners of my mouth make me look stern even when I'm not doing anything. Since my facial expression is stiff, correction is difficult, and my skin elasticity has also decreased, making it look even more saggy. When I look in the mirror, I notice my mouth corners are drooping downward, which seems to give off an overall gloomy vibe. I am wondering if getting lip corner Botox would naturally lift my mouth shape and change my impression to a brighter one.

I went to get stitches after falling. I was so young back then that it was painful, but I remember how reassured you were. There was even a cozy stuffed animal in the operating room. I think I would have cried continuously without that doll. The wait is long on weekends, but it is worth it. Now, only a very faint scar remains from the wound. I am so happy! The laser treatment was painful, but I was relieved that they finished it quickly. They examine patients very quickly and thoroughly, so I am very satisfied; it seems like one of the best hospitals I have visited. It seems like a very good hospital for suturing or plastic surgery. The pain only lasted for a week, during disinfection, and I received treatment for about two years because I had a scar on my face.

Irium Eye Clinic Gangnam Branch is the place I was most satisfied with for vision correction consultation.[18]
Because I've been wearing lenses for a long time My eye strain has been getting worse. So I'm going to get a consultation for vision correction. I personally compared several ophthalmology clinics. Here is my recommendation ranking. No. 1 Irium Eye Clinic Gangnam Branch 2nd Place Central Seoul Ophthalmology 3rd Place Bright World Eye Clinic The reason I liked the Irium Eye Clinic Gangnam branch the most is It is because the consultation was really detailed. It doesn't just tell you the test results It was easy to understand because you explained first why the eye condition is like this. What I particularly liked was The point is that the atmosphere wasn't one where surgery was unconditionally recommended. Considering even my lifestyle patterns I trusted the part that compared which method was correct. Central Seoul Ophthalmology had a nice, overall calm atmosphere, but The waiting time felt a bit long. Bright World Ophthalmology had a systematic examination system. It was a bit disappointing that the consultation time felt short. I get scared for no reason, so I keep putting off seeing an ophthalmologist. After getting consultations in person, I found that there was quite a big difference between hospitals. If I get vision correction done later I am planning to go back to the Irium Eye Clinic Gangnam branch.
영선이26.05.12Views 99Likes 2 If you are worried about orthodontic pain, here are some recommended reviews of Clippy-C.[3]
Before I first started Clippy-C orthodontic treatment, my biggest concern was the pain. Although I was told that Clippy-C moves teeth more smoothly than conventional braces, I hesitated because I had heard many stories from people around me about how difficult it was to eat properly due to the pain. I was particularly nervous on the day the braces were first attached, and I was even more worried because I didn't know how severe the discomfort would be during the treatment. However, during the consultation, the manager explained that while pain varies from person to person, it is generally manageable for most people, which put my mind at ease. Once the braces were actually attached, I felt a strong tightening sensation in my teeth for the first day or two, and it was definitely difficult to eat tough or hard foods. I needed time to adjust to the pain of the braces by eating mainly soft foods like porridge. In particular, I felt the pain again on the days the wires were adjusted each month, but it was not unbearable. As time passed, I gradually got used to it, and after about two weeks, the pain had significantly decreased, so there was no major inconvenience in my daily life. Whenever the wire came loose or I felt discomfort during the treatment, they corrected it immediately, so I was able to complete the treatment without any major issues. You thoroughly checked my teeth during the regular check-ups and meticulously explained how to manage them, which made me feel much more comfortable receiving orthodontic treatment. Above all, seeing my teeth gradually straighten with my own eyes made me feel that the discomfort caused by the pain was well worth enduring. I was very hesitant at first, but now I wonder why I didn't start sooner. If you are worried about the pain of orthodontics, I recommend getting a consultation first without being too scared. The discomfort is temporary, but the results are truly satisfying.

hello? My teeth are very uneven. I couldn't do it when I was young because the cost of braces was expensive. But now that I'm older, I couldn't do it because I heard my gums might recede. So, a sense of regret lingers in a corner of my heart.
아하26.05.11Views 52Likes 1 Review of Orthodontic Treatment at Guoldam Dental Hospital in Bupyeong-gu, Incheon[3]
I wanted to get braces for my protruding front teeth before I get too old, so I looked into various dental clinics! In particular, regarding dentists, they recommended visiting various places rather than getting consultations at just one. Since teeth are precious, I chose them more carefully. So, I visited Guoldam Dental Hospital, Yonsei D&N Dental Clinic, and Transparent Plus Dental Clinic, all located in Bupyeong-gu, Incheon, to receive consultations. First off, Guoldam Dental Hospital was ranked number one. It has been around the longest, and the doctors have impressive credentials. Also, the fact that there are always a lot of patients gave me confidence. I felt that they provide excellent medical care. I liked that they provided a thorough consultation and explained various corrective procedures that are suitable. Second place was Yonsei D&C Dental Clinic. I liked that the facilities were clean, but it was a shame that it didn't seem to specialize in orthodontics. Transparent Plus Dental Clinic was in third place. It's good because they specialize in orthodontics, but the wait is a bit long, so I thought it would be inconvenient to visit frequently, so I decided against it. So, I think it was good to visit frequently because Guoldam Dental Hospital provides thorough and fast treatment. Also, since treatments vary by floor in addition to orthodontics, I thought it was good that I could receive specialized treatment for a variety of conditions, not just orthodontics. So, I chose Guoldam Dental Hospital to get my braces done. I really liked that Guoldam Dental Hospital also carefully reviewed my future plans.

I made my decision regarding orthodontic treatment after visiting several clinics recommended by an acquaintance. I visited Harmony Dental Clinic in Myeongil-dong, Yonsei Woori Dental Clinic in Jamsil, and Seoul EOS Orthodontics & Dental Clinic. Harmony Dental Clinic ranked first, Yonsei Woori Dental Clinic second, and Seoul EOS Orthodontics & Dental Clinic third. The reason for choosing the top spot is that, since orthodontic treatment requires frequent visits to the dentist, I selected a location close to my home.

I often see reviews saying that nasolabial folds have deepened as facial fat is lost. Especially after tooth extraction orthodontics I'm a little worried because there's a lot of talk about my appearance changing. I do want to get braces, but I'm worried that it might make me look older than I am. I am curious if the difference in actual feel is significant.
영선이26.05.08Views 61Likes 4 I had Clippy-C braces done at Dain Dental Hospital in Nowon.[8]
I started orthodontic treatment at Dain Dental Hospital's Nowon branch right after becoming an adult. Clippy-C braces said A device equipped with a snap-type self-ligating mechanism but It is an orthodontic method that fixes a wire inside a bracket and then induces tooth movement. I have malocclusion and have trouble chewing food, so I started looking into orthodontics. I looked into veneers at the time, but I chose braces because I was told that a significant amount of tooth structure might need to be removed in my case. Dain Dental Hospital This is a hospital where I successfully completed my monthly appointments for 1 year and 8 months after getting my braces attached. When choosing a hospital, I prioritized accessibility from my university and workplace, whether it was a specialized orthodontic hospital, and whether it had a lot of experience. Fortunately, I chose this place because it met the above conditions. The doctors were bright and kind, and thanks to the well-organized reservation system, I was able to complete my monthly appointments and finish my orthodontic treatment with almost no waiting time. 1. Worries before the visit I was worried that starting orthodontic treatment might cause discomfort when eating, lead to tooth extraction, or cause pronunciation problems. I heard that Clippy-C has less friction than regular brackets and is easier to replace the wire. I was even more hesitant because I had no idea how much pain and discomfort would accompany the actual attachment of the device. 2. Twist Point I visited after hesitating for a while, and the consultation manager explained my concerns clearly and in an easy-to-understand way, and assured me that it wasn't serious enough to require extraction. You calmly explained how things would change after the correction and the level of discomfort during the process, and answered my questions comfortably, which helped me relax. It hurt less than I expected on the day I got the braces fitted. Due to the nature of the Clippy-C, which secures the wire with a clip, it feels less tight, and it finished faster than expected. 3. A word of counseling I still remember you telling me that orthodontics not only straightens the teeth but also creates a tooth structure that can be used healthily even as you age. Also, you gave realistic explanations regarding the eating difficulties and pronunciation issues I was worried about, which gave me confidence and allowed me to decide on the correction. You provided proper guidance regarding the cost and duration. I was satisfied because they did not recommend excessive tooth extraction or put any pressure on me. It is a retainer that you wear before going to bed. I wore it properly for about two years while sleeping to prevent my teeth from shifting back into place. 4. Impressions after the visit I am so satisfied with how my teeth have changed after braces that I regret the time I spent worrying. My chewing problems have improved, and my teeth have become even, which is great. If you are considering orthodontic treatment, don't hesitate too much. Try getting a consultation first.

I'm really worried about the triangle that formed after my braces. A triangle refers to the gap that forms between teeth and receding gums after orthodontic treatment. I think I have a particularly severe triangle... I'm worried that my gums might keep receding... Would it get better if I had something like a gum graft?

hello, Smile D Dental Clinic of Director Oh Su-hwan no see. Have you ever hesitated to smile broadly every time you looked in the mirror because of your crooked teeth? 😢 Even if you decide to get braces "Won't it hurt too much if we put down braces?", "I heard clear braces aren't very effective?" The same worries keep piling up. Actually, there is no right answer! Depending on your lifestyle patterns and dental condition There is a separate device that fits perfectly. Today, I’m going to easily explore how to choose the perfect orthodontic appliance for you! 🌈 1. Why is the 'bracket' method still widely used for orthodontics? ✨ It is a sure and traditional method that applies 'compulsion' by attaching the device directly to the teeth. . It is a method where brackets are firmly attached to the teeth, and the teeth are moved using the force of wires and rubber bands. The biggest advantage of this method is 'predictability'. 🎯 Since the patient cannot remove it on their own, the force planned by the doctor is applied steadily for 24 hours. 🙋♂️ I recommend this to people like this! Those who say, "I don't have the confidence to keep track of the device." For those who want to see quick results with a definite 'compulsion' 💡 A word from the Director : Initially, the device may rub against the inside of your lips and feel a bit uncomfortable, but once you get used to it, it becomes your most reliable orthodontic partner! ⚠️ Food gets stuck easily, so please pay twice as much attention to brushing your teeth as usual! 2. Is the discreet 'Invisalign' really effective for correction? ? ✨ It is a smart device that captures both aesthetics and convenience by using a special transparent plastic frame. . The biggest appeal of Invisalign is, of course, its 'perfect undetectable' look! For those with a professional life or frequent important meetings, it couldn't be better. In addition, the key point is that oral hygiene management is really convenient because you can temporarily remove the device when eating or brushing your teeth. Is there anything to watch out for? ⏰ Strictly adhere to the wearing time! You must wear it for at least 20 to 22 hours a day. The 'diligence' of taking good care of your own devices determines 90% of the results! 3. The device that fits me Compare at a glance! 📊 division Bracket correction (fixed) Invisalign (removable) Is it noticeable? I can see the bracket and wire 🧐 It's barely visible ✨ What about the meal? Be careful, it can get caught in the device! Take out the device and enjoy a relaxing yum yum 🍔 Management difficulty Brushing my teeth is a little hard 🪥 Just clean the device well and you're done! 🧼 Whose will? Everything is going smoothly according to the medical team's plan! Patient sincerity is essential! 🙌 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q1. Is Invisalign completely painless? A1. It's not entirely non-existent! 😢 However, since the force is applied more gently than with the bracket method, the pain is relatively less. You may feel a sore sensation for about 2 to 3 days after the appliance is replaced, but this is a pleasant sign that your teeth are moving nicely! Q2. Which of the two devices is more effective? A2. Rather than the performance of the device itself 'Design by an orthodontist' is much more important! With an accurate diagnosis, you can create a satisfying smile with any device. Q3. Can I clean and disinfect Invisalign with hot water? A3. Absolutely not! ⚠️ It is made of special plastic material, so it may deform in hot water. It is best to rinse with cold or lukewarm water and scrub with a soft toothbrush soaked in dish soap. conclusion ✨In the end, what matters is 'my heart' and 'expert diagnosis' Do you have a better understanding of choosing orthodontic appliances now? 🙂 Lack of willpower requiring compulsion If so? 👉 Bracket Correction! Appearance is important and the personality is meticulous If so? 👉 Invisalign! The most important thing is your oral health.

It has been quite a while since I got braces, and my teeth have started to separate a little. I said I was diligently wearing the retainer, but it keeps widening. It bothers me a bit because the area next to my front teeth is slightly visible due to the gap. Do I need to get it readjusted again now? I'm worried that even if I get the braces redone, it might come apart again.

Can I get braces even if I have a lot of cavities? I actually finished all my cavity treatments a long time ago. However, I did get quite a few gold fillings because the spaces between my molars were decaying. I want to get braces, but I'm worried my teeth might be too damaged for that. I have many crowns after treating cavities; has anyone here undergone orthodontic treatment?
곰곰미26.05.04Views 44Likes 0 Visit to Sae Yonsei Orthopedics in Suwon, Review of Ankle Ligament Injury[4]
I really sprained my ankle yesterday while coming down the stairs. There was a loud popping sound, and for a moment, my mind went blank and I broke out in a cold sweat. I thought about just trying to endure it, but since the swelling spread all the way to the top of my foot, I finally went to the orthopedic clinic this morning. I had an X-ray taken, and thankfully, the bone is fine, but the doctor said the ligament was quite strained, so I was prescribed a half-cast right away. It's my first time using one, and it feels surprisingly heavy and constricting. The doctor told me that if I don't fix it properly now, I'll suffer later, so I plan to stay still. The most embarrassing part is definitely the shoes. I limped out wearing a sneaker in one and a slipper in the other, and it was so mortifying... It’s no easy task, especially when showering, to have to put on a plastic bag and struggle to keep water out. I won't be able to do the exercise I used to love for a while, so forced rest is confirmed. Everyone, please be careful of sidewalks and stairs, as it can happen in an instant.

I am satisfied with the allergy treatment at Yonsei Ophthalmology Clinic in Suwon.[4]
I recently visited Yonsei Ophthalmology Clinic because my eyes were very itchy and uncomfortable due to allergy symptoms. I liked that the clinic was clean and the waiting area was pleasant. The receptionists were kind, and the director thoroughly checked my symptoms. They explained the causes of my allergies in detail and prescribed eye drops and medication tailored to my needs. I was prescribed Icroll eye drops and oral medication, and the instructions were detailed with dosage instructions and precautions, making it easy to check. I felt particularly reassured knowing in advance how often to use the eye drops and the potential side effects of the oral medication. I am satisfied because the itching has subsided significantly after the treatment. I think I will come back here whenever I need to visit an ophthalmologist in the future. I highly recommend this place!

I'm wondering when to start orthodontic treatment. Is it not a good idea to start after becoming an adult?[2]
My child's teeth are on the uneven side. I am considering orthodontic treatment. However, in cases where it starts after becoming an adult I am worried because I heard that it takes longer. Depending on whether teeth are extracted during orthodontic treatment Because they say the shape of the face can change, I am having trouble making a decision. Among clear braces and conventional braces I am also curious to know which method is more suitable for your lifestyle.
영선이26.05.04Views 48Likes 3 Review of Daegu Liz Dental Clinic for orthodontic treatment[3]
Ever since I was young, I have always been envious of people with pretty, even teeth. My teeth were so uneven that I was self-conscious about my smile. So I seriously considered getting braces, and I ended up getting them after becoming an adult. When I first started looking into braces, my biggest concerns were the pain and the fact that the braces would be too noticeable, so I was worried about being self-conscious when working or meeting people. Since orthodontic treatment takes a long time once you start and is not inexpensive, I was really worried that I might regret starting it for no reason. I was even more scared because when I read online reviews, there were many posts saying that they couldn't eat properly and were in so much pain for a few days after starting braces. After seeing reviews saying the cost was quite high, I hesitated for a long time before making a reservation. I heard that getting braces changes your face shape, so I was worried it might look unnatural. I couldn't easily make a decision because I heard I would have to wear a retainer for a long time. So, I kept looking at reviews and putting it off for months, but in the end, I was stressed because I was self-conscious about my teeth every time I smiled. I visited Daegu Liz Dental Clinic with the intention of at least getting a consultation. (This place had the best reviews among all the dental clinics in Daegu!) When I actually went there, the atmosphere of the dental clinic was very different from what I had imagined. Overall, it felt comfortable rather than stiff or scary, and I felt a bit at ease because they treated me well from the moment I entered. During the consultation, they showed me my current dental condition in detail and explained why orthodontic treatment was necessary. It wasn't just a matter of being told to correct it; it was easy to understand because it explained step-by-step which approach is correct for the current situation. I actually trusted them because they gave a realistic explanation of how long the correction period would take and how long I would need to wear the retainer. It wasn't like they were pressuring me to start immediately; they told me I could take my time thinking it over before deciding, which made me feel less pressured. Since I was a college student at the time, they helped me think through the financial burden. They also told me that I could pay the costs slowly in installments without interest. Haha. (This was really touching... College students don't have much money, you know... haha... ㅠㅠ) When I first started orthodontic treatment and the device was attached, I definitely felt a foreign sensation. When I ran my tongue over my front teeth, I wondered, "What is this feeling?" It was also fascinating. For the first few days, I felt like my teeth were being pressed down, so it was uncomfortable to eat hard foods and felt awkward when speaking. Even when I ate noodles, they would get stuck in my front braces... so I wondered if I got braces for nothing. I did feel a little regretful. The pain wasn't as unbearable as I had expected, and after a few days, I got used to it and was able to go about my life as usual. They checked my condition every time I visited the dentist and immediately adjusted anything that was uncomfortable, so I wasn't too stressed during the orthodontic treatment period. They also told me how to care for it when the device caused sores or discomfort in my mouth, so I didn't have to worry about it on my own. What reassured me most during the consultation was the detailed explanation of my current dental condition and how it would change in the future. I trusted them because they didn't just vaguely say things would get better if I corrected them, but realistically explained what could change. Whenever I asked questions, they didn't just gloss over them but explained everything in detail, which greatly reduced my anxiety about visiting the dentist. Even during the treatment process, they kept me informed of the progress according to my condition, so I knew which stage I was at, which made it more comfortable to attend. Also, the dental hygienists asked a lot about my daily life and talked a lot whenever they checked my teeth. Even during orthodontic treatment, I felt relaxed, and I was able to leave the dental clinic feeling good every time! I’ve finished my braces and am wearing a retainer now, but when I look at my old photos, I wonder why I hesitated for so long. Now that my teeth are aligned, I've reduced my habit of covering my mouth when I smile, and I smile much more naturally when taking photos. In the past, I used to be self-conscious about the shape of my mouth because I was worried about my teeth, but now that stress has decreased a lot! The orthodontic treatment period was long (I think I did it for about 5 years) As a result, I am very satisfied, and looking back now, I feel like the time I spent just worrying was a waste. I am managing my condition by consistently wearing my retainer, and now I feel that getting braces was really the right decision. It seems like just getting one tooth fixed has changed your impression and definitely boosted your confidence. If you happen to have a complex about your teeth like me, or are stressed and worried about it... Get an orthodontic consultation at Liz Dental Clinic in Banwoldang, Daegu. I was really satisfied! Hesitation only delays getting beautiful teeth... I recommend at least getting a consultation!

Orthodontics takes a long time and is expensive, so it is not an easy decision. I am also curious if it affects functional issues (chewing, jaw joint, etc.) rather than just for cosmetic purposes. I would like to know if there are separate criteria for when it is absolutely necessary and when it is not. I'm also curious about the satisfaction levels and changes for those who got braces after having similar concerns. Please share your honest opinions.

I thought I had been wearing the maintainer consistently, but I'm curious why it's going wrong again. I wonder if I need to readjust even this much. I would like to know if this can be corrected with a simple procedure. There are many cases where partial correction alone is sufficient. I became curious.
기춘이26.04.28Views 48Likes 3 Invisalign review: It took a long time, but I was very satisfied.[1]
This is a review of my Invisalign correction, which is transparent and undetectable. Unlike conventional braces, since these are removable braces, wearing them consistently for over 20 hours a day was the most important thing. At first, it felt a bit foreign, but I gradually got used to it, and my teeth alignment improved significantly over the two years of treatment. Overall, I was very satisfied with Invisalign. Invisalign The types of orthodontic treatment include the most basic prosthetic braces, clear aligners, removable Invisalign, and lingual braces (attached to the inside of the teeth). Unlike traditional orthodontics that use brackets and wires, Invisalign is a method that uses removable clear braces. While looking into orthodontics, I also saw many reviews praising the satisfaction with Invisalign, and Since I had braces after becoming an adult, I chose Invi-jeong braces, which have the advantage of being much more comfortable than traditional braces because they are removable and barely noticeable when not in use. A major advantage of Invisalign! Removable braces You are wearing this brace. You just need to replace it with a new one every two weeks. The reason I said two weeks is... this photo is clean because it's new, but it naturally discolors after two weeks, haha. First of all, what I liked most about Invisalign is that it is transparent so it doesn't look very noticeable. In fact, it is almost invisible from a distance, so I felt more satisfied with Invisalign. The inconvenient thing was that I had to wear the braces for more than 20 hours a day. I heard that consistently following this routine increases satisfaction with Invisalign, so I wore it with the utmost care. It felt a bit foreign when I first wore it... but I got used to it later. As those of you who have had braces know, even if I missed just one day of wearing them, when I put them on the next day, they felt like they were stuck tightly against my teeth. I felt that how consistently and properly you wear your braces is the key factor determining satisfaction with Invisalign, so I just wore them even while working! Before orthodontic treatment All crooked lol Wearing Invisalign braces After braces! (No braces worn) Both the upper and lower teeth, especially the lower teeth, have become perfectly aligned. At first, the director said it would take about a year to a year and a half, but it took me a little over two years. Although it took a long time, the difference before and after Invisalign treatment was clearly visible, so I am ultimately very satisfied with the results. Especially when I laughed, I used to cover my mouth. The biggest change was gaining confidence because I no longer needed to do that. I am very satisfied with Invisalign because the difference is clearly visible even when taking photos. It took longer than expected, so I had a hard time, but I think my satisfaction with Invisalign is directly proportional to the time and effort I put in. For those who want discreet correction, I think Invisalign is a recommended option because the satisfaction rate is quite high!

I've been self-conscious about my uneven teeth for a while now, and I'm wondering if I should get braces even though it's late. 😥 Given my age, I'm worried that it might be too late, and I'm also curious if it will be effective. I'm also worried about how long the correction period will take and whether it will be noticeable while I'm working. I've heard that tooth extraction is often necessary for orthodontics, so I'd like to know if it's absolutely necessary. I heard I have to keep wearing a retainer after my orthodontic treatment is over, so I'm also worried about the maintenance part... I would be grateful if those of you who started at a similar age could honestly share your satisfaction, any inconveniences, and whether it was a choice you don't regret.

First, I will provide verification from the actual payment receipt, excluding only the card portion... The price was a bit higher than I expected, but I am really satisfied after getting the procedure. I usually wear glasses, and after hearing reviews about LASIK, I was actually planning to get the procedure myself, but when I actually went for a consultation, they recommended lens implantation instead. I felt a strong aversion to putting something in my eyes, so I was a bit hesitant, but As stated on the hospital website, they explain everything step by step and make recommendations, so I looked up some reviews and it seemed good, so I decided to get the procedure. I feel like I can comfortably go around without my glasses now and have fun haha. There were no major side effects, and I got used to it quickly, so it is one of the procedures I think I did well. The best thing is that it involves inserting a lens rather than cutting into the cornea, so you can remove it at any time and switch to the other side. The fact that it had few side effects was appealing, and the real advantage was being able to recover in just one day and return to daily life. It is the same.

Ever since I was young, I had a habit of covering my mouth with my hand whenever I smiled because of my crooked teeth and uneven alignment. I made a big decision to start orthodontic treatment, and when the wires were first tightened, the pain was so severe that I had to eat only porridge for a few days, but I adapted quickly. Although attending monthly treatments for about two years was a hassle, it was a great joy to watch my teeth gradually find their proper places. In particular, as my protruding mouth went down, my profile line became incredibly beautiful, and above all, the biggest reward was gaining confidence when I smile broadly. Now that I've had my braces removed, I'm diligently wearing my retainer to maintain my teeth. Although there are downsides like food getting stuck or brushing being a hassle, whenever I see my straight teeth in the mirror, all I can think is, "Why didn't I do this sooner?" I believe braces are the best investment for anyone looking to change their appearance!

오수환 원장26.04.21Views 93Likes 3 I am satisfied after receiving acne treatment at U&Me Dermatology in Suwon.[4]
I was stressed out by acne, so I finally received proper treatment at a dermatology clinic. Initially, I underwent a combination of medication prescriptions, extractions, and laser treatment for inflammation, and the calming effect was definitely overwhelmingly faster than when I was managing it on my own at home. Although there was some pain during the extraction process, seeing it cleaned up neatly without scarring by a professional's touch makes me glad I endured it. In particular, thanks to regular scaling, impurities were removed from the pores, reducing shine and making my skin texture noticeably smoother. A few weeks after starting treatment, I can feel the redness subsiding and my bumpy skin becoming smoother. The changes are satisfying enough that the investment of time and money was well worth it. If you are struggling with acne, visiting a clinic as soon as possible seems to be the surest way to protect your skin health. Going forward, I plan to maintain this condition by paying attention to consistent aftercare and moisturization.

U&Me Dermatology in Suwon: Satisfaction from skin trouble consultation to treatment![4]
I visited the dermatology clinic because I was very concerned about skin troubles, and I was extremely satisfied with everything from the consultation to the treatment.

민트홀릭26.04.16Views 39Likes 4 Question) Is it okay to start orthodontic treatment now that I am an adult? I am curious about the cost and duration.[4]
My teeth weren't a big issue when I was young, but they became uneven starting when my wisdom teeth came in. Now that I am an adult, my teeth have already fully settled. Because of this, I am wondering if starting braces now would be worthwhile. I have heard that braces are most effective when done during childhood, so I am worried that it might be too late. However, I have been stressed about the shape of my teeth for a long time, and I feel that getting braces would help me regain my confidence, so I am hesitant. Also, I have a question. Cost and duration of adult correction I have heard from those around me that it takes at least two years and costs anywhere from several million to nearly ten million won, but I don't really have a sense of how much it actually costs. I would like to hear your experiences or advice on whether starting orthodontic treatment as an adult is sufficiently effective, and what I should expect regarding the cost and duration.

이재철26.04.15Views 67Likes 0 Review of child rhinitis treatment at Suwon Sumshineun Korean Medicine Clinic[5]
My second child has taken a lot of antibiotics for runny noses since attending daycare. We visited for a growth consultation, but ended up starting treatment for rhinitis, the primary cause of the condition. My child is more timid than peers and usually refuses to go to the hospital, but thanks to the kind doctor's personalized approach, he is adapting well day by day. Seeing him improve little by little makes me, as a mother, feel compelled to receive treatment alongside him. It is much better than harsh antibiotics, and seeing him sleep soundly makes me wish I had come sooner or looked into this place more carefully... Still, I gain strength from the doctor's encouragement that it isn't too late and that we just need to be diligent with the treatment. Today, we received rhinitis treatment, acupuncture, and Chuna manual therapy... I didn't even realize how much time had passed. It is so great that we can receive treatment on Saturdays and Sundays, but the best part is that both the doctor and the nurses are so kind and friendly that I am touched every time I visit. Today, my nose feels completely clear again! Thank you~~

오수환 원장26.04.14Views 932Likes 2 Review of child orthodontic consultation at Ibaro Dental Clinic in Siheung[3]
This is the most famous place for orthodontics in the neighborhood... It's hard to get an appointment, and after waiting about three months, I finally managed to get an initial consultation... I went for a consultation regarding my child's braces... Since my child is still young, I thought I'd just get a consultation for now, so I had various X-rays taken and met with the doctor... I don't really know if there was any overtreatment or anything like that, but they said it would be good to proceed... The cost was relatively on the expensive side, but since it is a specialized orthodontic clinic, I felt a bit of trust... I've seen many parents around me get their children treated here as well... I went with the intention of getting braces, but after hearing about the treatment process, I think I need to think it over a bit more before coming back.

Please tell me some exercises that are effective for correcting rounded shoulders![4]
I think my child is developing rounded shoulders. I use my phone a lot, so my shoulders keep rolling forward and looking hunched. They don't listen even when I tell them to straighten their shoulders. Constantly hunched over while using the phone... I wanted to straighten my shoulders with stretching. I am trying to straighten my shoulders back by imagining touching my shoulder blades from time to time. Are there any other effective stretches besides this? Would things like push-ups help correct rounded shoulders by any chance? I found this push-up bar at Daiso. I'm thinking about buying it because it's designed to stimulate different body parts. It seems like it would be killing two birds with one stone, as I can build chest muscles at the same time. It won't happen to make my shoulder worse, right?

They meticulously checked to make sure I wasn't experiencing any discomfort during every appointment, and the staff were always kind, making my visits a pleasant experience.

I sincerely recommend this clinic to anyone looking for a skilled and meticulous orthodontic clinic!

Review of orthodontic treatment at Seomyeon Ye Dental Clinic[4]
I've had a few weaknesses since I was young, and one of them was my teeth. I was self-conscious about my uneven teeth, but since my family wasn't well-off when I was young, I never even considered getting braces. I also had an extra tooth, but I was told I needed to have it removed, so I had it taken out when I was young. I was thinking about getting braces around my 30s and was looking into it when my dad took me to the dental clinic where he had his implants, saying it seemed good. That place was Seomyeon Ye Dental Clinic, and it is a nationwide chain. I found out later that just because it's a chain, it doesn't mean you can continue the treatments you received at your original clinic at a Ye Dental Clinic in a different area. I liked that I felt a bit more confident after getting braces compared to when I didn't. I received orthodontic treatment at Seomyeon Ye Dental Clinic for 5 years, and I have been visiting regularly for checkups since then. It is far away now, so I only stop by occasionally when visiting my parents' house. The director is still kind, and the dental hygienists are all friendly as well, so I like that I don't feel uncomfortable. The waiting room is a bit small, but it isn't crowded since everyone seems to come with a reservation, so if you book in advance, you won't have to wait long.

I had braces before. Over time, my teeth gradually shifted a little, and now they are very far apart. I'm wondering if I need to get braces again. I am really worried about having to wear the device again for a few more years. Has anyone here had braces re-treatment? I am also curious to know if you were able to maintain your alignment well after the retreatment.

Suwon Seowon Orthopedic Clinic, Knee Pain Relieved After Injection Treatment[1]
My knees ached and throbbed every time I went up or down stairs, making daily life difficult. I visited an orthopedic clinic and was diagnosed with knee arthritis. The director carefully examined my knee and recommended injection treatment perfectly suited to my current condition. Honestly, I was a bit nervous about getting an injection, but the doctor administered it quickly with skilled technique, so there was almost no pain, and it was over in no time. The physical therapy that followed the injection was also really good. I could feel the therapists providing meticulous care, and as they gently loosened my tight muscles and the areas around my joints, I definitely feel like my gait is much lighter. The hospital atmosphere was tidy, and everyone was kind, so I was able to receive treatment comfortably. If you are suffering from knee pain like me, I think you will get better quickly if you don't endure the pain but visit the hospital and receive treatment consistently.

A satisfying Rejuran treatment experience at Rivers Clinic in Suwon
My skin elasticity isn't what it used to be, and fine wrinkles have started to become noticeable, so I decided to get a consultation about Rejuran at a plastic surgery clinic. At first, I had only heard the name and didn't know exactly what the procedure entailed, but I became interested after hearing during the consultation that it helps with skin regeneration. I appreciated that they didn't try to force the treatment on me, but instead patiently explained whether it was necessary based on my current skin condition and concerns. Before the procedure, my skin condition was thoroughly checked, and I received detailed instructions regarding the process, pain levels, and post-procedure precautions. Anesthetic cream was applied, and the procedure began after a certain amount of time; while it stung a bit more than I expected, it was bearable. The staff checked on my condition periodically, which made me feel less burdened. Immediately after the procedure, there was some redness and raised, embossed areas, but these gradually subsided over time. After a few days, my skin felt more hydrated than before, and I noticed an overall improvement in its texture. Since it felt like a gradual improvement rather than an immediate, dramatic change, it felt more natural. What I liked most was that it improved my skin condition itself without any drastic changes. After hearing that I could expect even better results with consistent care, I felt that approaching it as an extension of my skincare routine was the right choice. Although I was worried since it was my first time, it was an overall very satisfying experience.

Weekend emergency surgery at Suwon Microsurgery Clinic, satisfied!
An unexpected accident happened. It was the first time in my life I’ve experienced something like this; it was a major accident where I fell, hit a pillar, and tore the area below my lip. It occurred on my way home from an outing, and since it was the weekend, all the hospitals were closed. I ended up searching on Naver and found a place to go, but the doctor was working alone; there were no nurses at all. The doctor wasn't the friendly type, but he seemed skilled. There was almost no detailed explanation about the surgery or post-operative care. I figured that was understandable since he was trying to do everything by himself on the weekend. I went back two days later for a check-up and disinfection, and they told me the surgery went well. However, the nurses here aren't the friendly type either. It’s not that they are unfriendly, but they don't explain things like precautions or how to care for the area in detail. That aspect is a bit disappointing, but I am satisfied with the surgery itself so far and am watching the situation.

[Health Column] Is It Okay to Get Orthodontics in Your 50s? How to Check the 'Golden Time' That Determines the Lifespan of Your Teeth[3]
hello, Smile D Dental Clinic of Director Oh Su-hwan no see. When consulting with patients in their 50s at the dental clinic, there are really many who wave their hands and say, "Why would I need braces at this age? I'm embarrassed." However, the 50s are not the time to give up on braces; rather, it is a very important step that determines the final lifespan of your teeth. Golden Time Did you know that it could be? Today, based on medical evidence, I will go over the feasibility of orthodontic treatment for those in their 50s and the precautions in detail. 🔍 1. Orthodontics for those in their 50s: What is 'this' more important than age? ? ✨ The key is not the number of years, but the 'gum stamina' to support your teeth. . To start with the conclusion, orthodontic treatment is fully possible even in your 50s, and the results can be very good. but, 'Foundation work' to withstand the orthodontic device The key is whether it has been done. Here, foundation work refers to the support for the tooth roots. Condition of the alveolar bone It refers to. What I check most meticulously when diagnosing patients 3 indicators It is as follows. height of the alveolar bone : Just like the soil that supports a tree, the gum bone must sufficiently cover the roots to withstand orthodontic forces. Activity of periodontal inflammation : Forcibly moving teeth while the gums are inflamed, swollen, or bleeding can be dangerous as it accelerates bone resorption. Structure of the existing prosthesis: If you already have multiple implants or bridges, careful planning that takes this into account is essential. ⚠️ If there are problems with these three indicators, I do not recommend correction, no matter how much you wish to. Because safety comes first! 2. Cases where correction is absolutely necessary vs. cases where it should be postponed for a while ? ✨ Check the 'recommendations' and 'cautions' based on your dental condition. . Enduring it unconditionally is not the answer. Depending on the situation, orthodontics is a shortcut to a healthy old age It can also be this. 📌 ✅ We recommend braces for these people! My gums are well cared for, though. People whose teeth are gradually becoming spaced apart or misaligned molar left missing Those whose adjacent teeth have tilted and whose overall occlusion has collapsed especially Creating space for implant placement If necessary It is very effective. ❌ Caution is required for these people! severe gum disease : If your teeth are very loose, gum treatment comes before orthodontics. uncontrolled systemic disease : It is not recommended for those with slow wound healing due to uncontrolled diabetes or other conditions. Middle-aged Orthodontics FAQ Q1. Doesn't getting braces when you're older make your teeth weaker? ? A1. While excessive correction can be dangerous, straightening misaligned teeth actually reduces food accumulation and makes maintenance easier, so in the long run, Great help to gum health This becomes Q2. Does the correction period take much longer than for young people? ? A2. The movement speed may be slightly slow due to slow cell metabolism. However, not a complete correction Partial correction In this case, there are many instances where it ends within a few months, so don't worry too much. What matters is not speed, but 'safety'. Q3. Wouldn't it be better to just get implants instead of braces? ? A3. If you only implant a tooth when its structure has collapsed, it may result in greater costs and time later on. Correcting the foundation through orthodontics is a wise 'preparation for old age' for the era of centenarians. conclusion 'Reconstruction' of tooth structure for the 100-year lifespan era Orthodontic treatment for people in their 50s is not just a cosmetic procedure. ✨ To eat deliciously and converse happily with my teeth for the next 40+ years A thorough cleaning and restructuring of the oral structure no see. Just as straight pillars are necessary to support a sturdy roof, aligning your teeth through orthodontics will significantly extend the lifespan of your future prosthetics or implants. However, you must consult with a skilled specialist Your 'gum stamina' Don't forget to check this first!
