[Health Column] Orthodontics: Are Brackets the Answer or Clear Aligners? A Guide to Choosing the Right Device for You 🦷✨[1]
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.

hello. Director Jae-wook Jeong of Gangnam Saero Dental Clinic no see. The experience of breaking your front teeth with a 'crunch' while chewing hard food, or bumping them against something, happens much more commonly than you might think. Since your front teeth are the most important part in determining your impression, your heart will sink the moment you look in the mirror. But don't worry too much! Appropriate coping methods and treatments tailored to me If you know just this, you can protect your precious teeth and fully regain your bright smile. Today, I'll pick out the key information and share it with you! 1. What if your front tooth suddenly chipped? Check 'this' before going to the dentist! 👋 Please remember these three things before visiting the dentist: secure the fragment, check for nerve exposure, and do not neglect the problem! Although you may be flustered by a sudden accident, checking the checklist below first can significantly improve the treatment outcome. 🦷 Don't throw away tooth fragments! If the broken piece is large Physiological saline or milk Soak it in water and bring it back as soon as possible. Depending on the condition, reattachment may be possible. ⚠️Can you see the nerve? How is the pain? If the fractured area appears red or the sensitivity is severe, the nerve is exposed Emergency situation It could be. In this case, you must rush to the dentist without delay. 🚫 "It's just a little, it'll be fine, right?" Never neglect it! If bacteria penetrate even a tiny, barely visible gap Internal cavities or additional damage This can lead to medical expenses being several times higher later. 2. What is the perfect treatment for my dental condition? 👋 Depending on the extent of the damage, you must select the optimal method, ranging from resin to implants. Since teeth do not heal naturally once broken, a professional diagnosis is essential depending on the depth of the fracture. What if it's a slight crack or micro-damage? ➡️ [Resin] It is a method of filling with material that matches the color of the teeth. Immediate recovery on the same day The fact that it is possible is a big advantage! ✨ If you have moderate damage requiring shape improvement? ➡️ [Airnate / Laminate] It is effective when resin is insufficient. Especially Airate It restores broken areas precisely and naturally with almost no tooth removal. What if it is severe damage with more than half broken? ➡️ [Crown] If a root canal is necessary, the entire tooth needs to be protected by a sturdy crown. You can think of it as the tooth's 'armor'! 🛡️ What if the tooth is fractured all the way to the root? ➡️ [Implant] When a tooth cannot be saved, it must be extracted and the most natural-looking artificial tooth implanted to restore function. 3. What should I do to keep my treated front teeth strong for a lifetime? 👋 Maintenance is key for dental prosthetics! Your front tooth usage habits and regular checkups determine their lifespan. . There are promises you must keep to maintain your carefully treated front teeth for a long time. ✨ 🍎 Say goodbye to the habit of crunching with your front teeth! Prosthetics are more sensitive to impact than natural teeth. Chewing on ice, biting into an apple, breaking off tough meat It is best to avoid this. (Please cut into small pieces with a knife before eating!) 🪥 Oral assistive devices are a necessity, not an option! The boundary between the prosthesis and the gum is a vulnerable area prone to cavities. Please clean it thoroughly using an interdental brush or dental floss. 📅 Date the dentist every 6 months! By checking the adhesive condition through regular inspections, you can prevent sudden detachment or damage. ❓ FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions Q1. If I put the broken pieces back together, will it be as sturdy as before? ? A1. If the surface is clean, reattachment is possible, but the bonding strength will inevitably be weaker than that of the original tooth. If you consider durability and aesthetics Resin or airate It is often more advantageous to reinforce with this. Q2. The crack is really tiny, so it should be okay to just leave it, right? ? A2. Even a small scratch can cause the fractured area to gradually enlarge if chewing force is continuously applied. ⚠️ The sharp edges may cause injuries inside the mouth, so it is safer to trim them slightly or apply protective treatment. Q3. Can I eat right after treatment? ? A3. You can eat immediately after the procedure for resin or airnate! However, until it is fully established Avoid very hot or cold food, and sticky food on that day. Please don't forget to be considerate and avoid that! 😉 📝 conclusion Don't neglect your bright smile! As time passes, treating a broken front tooth becomes more complex and the financial burden increases. Are you feeling a little better? The time you want to can be the most dangerous. Key Summary: Collect the fragment ➡️ Nerve check ➡️ Visit the dentist quickly! Management Points: Avoid hard foods & regular checkups are essential! If you are currently worried about a slightly cracked front tooth, do not hesitate to get an accurate diagnosis of your current condition.

Are the changes that appear after 10 years really a problem with the laminate itself? ✨ In many cases, natural 'gum changes' are the main cause rather than defects in the prosthetics. Just as our bodies change over time, our gums also undergo gradual changes. Especially as you enter your late 30s and 40s, the gums gradually recede. 'Gum recession' phenomenon It is because this appears. 📌 What symptoms appear? 🔸The boundary between the laminate and the gums becomes visible Grayish or yellowish This is visible ⚠️ 🔸Fine details on the smooth seam foreign body sensation This feeling 🔸I feel like my gum line isn't as even as it used to be 💡 Director Oh's One-Line Advice This is not a failure of the procedure, but something that appears over time natural signal It is!

Do I have to remove all the laminates? Depending on your current condition, the direction of treatment is smartly divided into three main categories. ! Tearing everything out blindly isn't the right answer! You can choose the most appropriate method depending on the condition and concerns of your teeth. 🔸 Maintenance : If the bond is strong and you are free of cavities, you can use it for longer with just regular checkups! 👍 🔸 Partial replacement : A problem arose Selectively only one or two teeth Reduce the burden by providing retreatment. 🔸 Complete redesign : We proceed with a 10-year outlook to address bite misalignment or ensure overall smile harmony. ✨ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q1. I had a lot of it shaved off in the past; is it really possible to have a re-procedure? A1. Yes, it is possible! Through precise diagnosis Analyze the amount of remaining enamel (outer surface of the tooth). Doing it is the priority. 📌Our primary principle is to preserve the remaining tooth structure as much as possible. Q2. Should I get braces instead of laminate re-treatment? A2. The cause of the prosthesis repeatedly breaking Misaligned occlusion If that is the case, correction can be a fundamental solution. However, if you are simply dissatisfied with the color or shape, a re-treatment is much more effective. Q3. If I get the procedure done again this time, can I really use it for a lifetime? A3. Actually, saying it "lasts a lifetime" might be an exaggeration. ⚠️ However, if accompanied by regular checkups and care (such as avoiding hard foods), you can maintain your health for much longer than before! conclusion You don't need to regret the choice you made 10 years ago!

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.

정재욱 원장26.03.30Views 192Likes 2 [Health Column] Do You Lose Weight When Getting Braces? A Fact Check on Braces and Dieting! ✨[12]
hello. Director Jae-wook Jeong of Gangnam Saero Dental Clinic no see. Patients who have started orthodontic treatment "Director, I think I've lost some weight since getting braces!" He often says that. This is because wearing braces actually drastically changes eating habits and food choices. Today, many people are curious about The Real Correlation Between Orthodontics and Dieting I will give you a clear and concise explanation about that! 1. Why do I lose weight during orthodontic treatment? ? 👋 The answer lies in 'changes in eating habits' and 'more diligent brushing habits'. Small meals caused by discomfort When you first wear the device, you will experience temporary discomfort when chewing, so you will look for soft foods such as porridge, tofu, and eggs. As you cut your food into small pieces and eat slowly, your portion size naturally decreases. Gluttony won over laziness Since brushing your teeth after meals is essential during orthodontic treatment, many people refrain from eating unnecessary snacks or junk food due to the inconvenience. 📌 A word from the Director! As these changes overlap, temporary weight loss may occur initially. 2. Conversely, are there cases where weight increases? ? 👋 Yes, if you mainly eat soft, high-calorie foods, you can actually gain weight. . The Trap of Softness If you look for foods that are easy to chew, there is a risk that you will frequently consume soft but high-calorie foods such as ice cream, bread, cake, and noodles. The Temptation of Liquid Sugars If you fill up on sugary drinks instead of meals because you find chewing bothersome, it actually leads to weight gain. Ultimately, weight change is determined by 'what kind of eating habits you adopt' rather than the corrective device itself. 3. How should I manage a healthy diet during orthodontic treatment? ? 👋 As this is a long-term battle that takes an average of over a year, balanced nutrition is key. . ✅ Avoid these foods. You should be careful as foods that are too hard or sticky can damage the device. ✅ Balanced nutrients Please make sure to eat a balanced diet of healthy foods such as protein, vegetables, and fruits. ✅ Caution regarding liquid sugars It is recommended to reduce the consumption of sugary drinks. ✅ Cleanliness is essential Please make sure to maintain thorough oral hygiene after meals. ❓ FAQ Q1. How long does it take to eat properly after starting braces? ? A1. Usually after installing the device About 3 to 5 days You may experience some pressure or discomfort, but please do not worry too much, as you will adapt quickly and be able to resume normal meals! Q2. Will I gain weight again after the braces are finished? ? A2. Correction itself is not a treatment for weight control. If you fail to maintain the healthy eating habits you established during treatment, your weight may change again. Q3. I've completely lost my appetite. Is this normal? ? A3. Yes, it is very normal! During the initial adaptation period, chewing may be uncomfortable, so your appetite may temporarily decrease, but it will naturally recover over time. 📝 conclusion Remember the real purpose of orthodontic treatment! While weight loss is possible due to changes in diet during orthodontic treatment, this You should not think of it as a means of dieting. The purpose of correction is Proper occlusion formation, restoration of oral function, long-term dental health It is located at. Therefore, it is important to guide changes in dietary habits during correction in a healthy direction.

Malocclusion or crowded teeth can not only cause issues with appearance but also create blind spots during brushing, which can affect oral health. uneven tooth alignment malocclusion Ina snaggletooth Is It is easy to think of it as merely a superficial issue, but in reality, correction is often recommended for health reasons. If your teeth overlap, even if you brush hard It is easy for areas to form that the toothbrush cannot reach well. Such blind spots ultimately tooth decay me gum disease You can increase the possibility. If you straighten your teeth through orthodontic treatment It makes oral hygiene management much easier and can help keep your own teeth healthy for longer. for example, If you repeatedly feel that a specific area is always uncomfortable or that dental floss doesn't go in easily even after brushing your teeth It might not be a simple habit problem, but an arrangement problem. 🔸 Reference Points A good-looking layout is important, but, It is more important to also consider whether the structure makes it easy to clean the spaces between the teeth. 3. In the case of an open bite where the front teeth do not touch If your front teeth do not touch even when you close your mouth, the functional discomfort may feel greater than the appearance. A state where a gap forms between the upper and lower front teeth, preventing them from touching each other, even when the mouth is tightly closed. open bite It is called. In this case, it is not just a visible issue; the inconvenience felt in daily life is quite significant. For example, it is difficult to bite off noodle dishes like cold noodles or spaghetti with your front teeth, and it may feel like your pronunciation is slurred. Restoring the bite of your front teeth through orthodontics can help you regain the ability to bite and chew food, and it can also help improve pronunciation. 🔸 Reference Points Rather than simply dismissing it by thinking, "My front teeth just don't quite touch," if you experience recurring discomfort during eating or pronunciation, it is advisable to have it checked from a functional perspective. 4.

The facial midline does not align, or It looks twisted to one side Facial asymmetry It can also be a candidate for orthodontic treatment. Of course, in cases where the disharmony of the skeleton itself is very severe Surgery may be necessary. However, in many cases, orthodontic treatment alone can alleviate the degree of asymmetry and yield satisfactory results. If your mouth or jaw looks crooked to one side when you look in the mirror, If the center of your face always feels awkward in photos, you might want to check it at least once. 🔸 Reference Points Rather than viewing asymmetry simply as “is it because only one side is used more?”, An approach that examines the bite and the facial midline together is necessary. FAQ Q1. How long does orthodontic treatment take? A1. It depends on the condition, but for a short period 4~6 months , usually One and a half to two years or more It takes time. In order to move teeth healthily Weak and persistent power This is because it is necessary. Q2. If I get braces for a protruding mouth, can my mouth look too deeply recessed? A2.

hello. Director Jeong Jae-wook of Gangnam Saero Dental Clinic no see. There is a concern I hear most often before getting orthodontic treatment. “They say that if you get braces, the wrinkles on your nasolabial folds will get deeper…” “I saw a review saying that my cheeks looked thinner and more slender.” I really understand these concerns. But in reality Wrinkles on the nasolabial folds = Not due to correction, but a problem of 'relative change and habit' This is much more common. today The relationship between correction and nasolabial folds , and In what cases can wrinkles appear deeper? I'll explain it to you easily. 1. Does orthodontic treatment really cause wrinkles on the forehead? 👋 Nasolabial folds are often visible due to 'changes in relative depth' rather than 'movement of teeth'. If you correct it, your mouth will go back. At this time, the starting point of the wrinkles on the forehead also moves backwards. Most of the time, the direction in which the wrinkles appear shallower It changes into . But why do I feel like my wrinkles have gotten deeper? ✔ Let me explain it easily with an example The cheeks are the same, but the mouth is sunken inward. Let me think about it. → Then, the ‘valley’ between the ball and the mouth may appear relatively prominent. That is, not “sagging” Existing wrinkles appear more prominent It's just one day. When you feel like wrinkles have suddenly appeared on your arms, Not just “creating wrinkles” Check if it is due to relative volume change I'd like to try it. 2. Why do changes in the nasolabial folds occur during correction? 👋 Lifestyle habits, muscle changes, and treatment design are the main causes. 🔸 1) Bad lip habits To hide the braces If you keep pursing your lips, muscle use increases → wrinkles become stronger. It can lead to. 🔸 2) Excessive treatment plan If you push your teeth back too far, → Okni and Hapjuki mouth As it becomes more sagging, it can actually look like sagging. This is the part that the director emphasized. Whether or not a precise diagnosis is possible based on experience is very important. 🔸 3) Reduction in masticatory muscles During braces treatment, you will be asked to avoid hard foods. → As the chewing muscles decrease Your cheeks may appear sagging and the area under your cheekbones may appear hollow. → As a result, the wrinkles on your arms may appear stronger. As long as the food is not too hard A balanced diet that naturally uses the muscles around the mouth It helps. 3. How should I plan my correction to reduce the worry about wrinkles on my forehead? 👋 We need to look at the entire facial bone structure, not just the arrangement of the teeth. 🔹 [Expert Diagnosis] Full facial analysis is key Cheek fat amount Skin elasticity The ratio of the head to the lower body Front teeth angle Upper and lower jaw balance All of these elements must be reviewed and corrected. A facial line where the nasolabial folds are not prominent can make. 🔹 [Treatment Process] Speed control is very important If you push your teeth back too quickly, → Wrinkles may appear deeper because the skin and soft tissues cannot adapt. The impatience of “I want to finish it quickly!” can actually accentuate wrinkles. 🔹 [Lifestyle] Skin Care + Facial Muscle Maintenance 💧 Drink enough water 🌞 Sunscreen is essential 🙂 facial muscle exercises : Put air in the ball and hold for 10 seconds Practice opening the corners of your mouth wide This is basic care that anyone can do without side effects. 4. How do nasolabial folds change during and after correction? 👋 Most cases recover naturally within 6 months after the end of orthodontic treatment. ✔ After removing the braces Chewing muscle recovery Restoring cheek volume soft tissue stabilization After going through this process Most wrinkles that appeared deep during correction will return to their previous state. 5. Is it possible to have dermatological procedures performed concurrently during orthodontic treatment? 👋 It is possible, but 'timing' is important. Because the lip, chin, and cheekbone lines continue to change during correction, After the outline is somewhat established (finishing stage ~ after correction is completed) I recommend this procedure. ❓ FAQ Q1. Will the deepened nasolabial folds return after correction? A1. Yes, mostly Recover naturally It will work. Changes caused by the thickness of the braces and the reduction of masticatory muscles stabilize within about 6 months after the device is removed through diet and muscle recovery. Q2. If I get orthodontic treatment, will I always have a 'happocket'? A2. No. The mouth of the bamboo is When teeth are pushed back too far As a side effect, By accurately calculating the amount of movement through a precise diagnosis, even if teeth are extracted, they can be corrected to create a natural and sophisticated line. Q3. Is orthodontic treatment for people in their 40s and 50s more dangerous due to loss of elasticity? A3. It is true that skin elasticity is low, Speed control and non-extraction priority design It is possible to do so safely enough. 📝 conclusion Orthodontic treatment Create wrinkles on the forehead is a common misconception. rather In many cases, it improves as the balance between the chin and mouth improves. The key is ✔ Precision diagnosis , ✔ Speed control , ✔ A plan that takes into account the entire facial structure no see. Rather than delaying correction due to vague fears, Consult a specialist A plan that reflects my face shape, skin elasticity, and even the condition of my masticatory muscles. Try setting it up. It will lead to slightly healthier and more natural changes.

There are two main reasons for this. 🔸 congenital factors When the size of the teeth and the size of the jaw do not match If the jaw is narrow and the teeth are large → the teeth overlap and are arranged Conversely, if the jaw is large and the teeth are small → gaps between the teeth 🔸 acquired factors As the gums weaken, their ability to support the teeth decreases. Accordingly, the teeth can move slightly and deform. ✔️ So, it is actually quite common to simply say, “It was a good fit originally, but it suddenly seems to be wrong.” 2. What are the advantages of partial front teeth correction? ✨ The biggest appeal of partial front teeth correction is that it focuses on correcting only the necessary areas! Partial correction of front teeth is literally The problem is A method of attaching orthodontic devices to only 6 to 8 front teeth no see. ✔️ The treatment period is short Although full correction often takes 1-2 years or more, Partial correction can be completed in a relatively short period of time. ✔️ It's less expensive Fewer teeth to attach the device to Economical compared to full correction ✔️ There are few inconveniences in life.

김현순 원장25.07.10Views 239Likes 6 [Health Column] Tooth Extraction for Orthodontics, Is It Absolutely Necessary? Criteria for Orthodontic Extraction and Tips for Choosing a Dentist[9]
Director Kim Hyun-sun Hello. I am Director Kim Hyun-soon of Ceramic Dental Clinic. One of the most frequently asked questions during orthodontic consultations is, "Do I have to extract teeth during orthodontic treatment?" In this article, I will explain in detail the reasons why tooth extraction may be necessary for orthodontics, clarify misconceptions about side effects, and outline the criteria to consider when choosing an orthodontic clinic. 1. Why is extraction necessary during orthodontic treatment? Orthodontics is not just a treatment to straighten teeth. This is a comprehensive treatment that considers the structure of the jawbone, the overall oral shape, and even the facial profile. Especially in cases where space is limited, some teeth need to be extracted to evenly align the teeth. Conversely, when there is enough space, satisfactory results can be achieved with non-extraction orthodontics. In other words, whether to perform orthodontic extraction depends on the patient's oral structure and tooth condition, and accurate assessment and planning are essential during the initial diagnosis. 2. Side effects of orthodontic extraction, should I be worried? "Is it okay to extract a healthy tooth?" What should I do if my mouth looks too small? This is a common concern for many people before orthodontic extraction. However, in cases where extraction is necessary, proceeding with non-extraction treatment forcefully may result in teeth not fitting into their proper positions, ultimately leading to the need for re-treatment. This can lead to increased time, cost, and psychological burden. Therefore, an accurate diagnosis and professional treatment plan are the best ways to reduce side effects. 3. How long does it take to recover after tooth extraction? Extraction is a surgical procedure, but in the case of a normal healthy extraction, the pain subsides within a few days. It does not significantly interfere with the orthodontic treatment. However, in cases of slower recovery, careful attention to oral hygiene management and dietary regulation is necessary. 4. How should I choose an orthodontic clinic? Orthodontic treatment typically takes more than 2 to 3 years. Therefore, the choice of dentist inevitably greatly influences the satisfaction with the treatment. The considerations when making a choice are as follows. Do you have enough treatment experience with cases similar to mine? Do you have clinical expertise in both extraction and non-extraction orthodontics? Is there a precise diagnostic system equipped for accurate diagnosis? Don't just consider the price or location, It is important to choose a hospital that offers customized treatment tailored to my oral condition. Conclusion: The decision to extract depends on the individual's dental structure. Tooth alignment and extraction are never topics with a single correct answer. It depends on the patient's oral structure, tooth arrangement, and treatment goals. If you are considering whether to extract the tooth, Receive an accurate diagnosis through consultation with a specialist with extensive clinical experience. A careful plan is the first step toward healthy correction. It is a path that leads to a beautiful and natural smile.
