I felt confident enough to pay a deposit right away, and I liked that the consultation manager didn't pressure me at all. I visited this plastic surgery clinic after contemplating eyelid correction surgery, and I had a generally satisfying experience from consultation to surgery and post-operative care. I trusted the director because he thoroughly examined my eye condition and emphasized natural changes rather than excessive correction. The detailed explanation of the surgical process greatly reduced my anxiety, and the staff were kind and attentive, making me feel comfortable visiting the clinic. The post-operative swelling management and progress checks were systematic, ensuring a stable recovery process, and I am highly satisfied as I can feel my ability to open my eyes much more clearly.

At Miso Plan Dental Clinic in Gangnam-gu, orthodontic treatment is performed without any discomfort.[2]
My teeth are uneven overall, and my front teeth overlap when I smile, so I've been contemplating getting braces for a long time. At first, I was worried because I'd heard so many people say braces are painful and uncomfortable, but it actually turned out to be better than I expected. During my initial consultation, the therapist thoroughly explained my dental condition, the treatment period, and even the cost, which gave me confidence and helped me recommend the right treatment for my teeth. When I first got my braces, I felt a bit sore for a few days, but I quickly got used to the difficulty in chewing. Even during my frequent visits for adjustments, they always checked my condition thoroughly and addressed any discomfort immediately, which was reassuring. They also gave me detailed instructions on brushing and care methods, so I no longer had to worry about cavities.

Regain confidence after asymmetrical eye correction at Iwabaek Plastic Surgery Clinic in Gangnam-gu.
The fact that my eyes were asymmetrical had a bigger impact on my daily life than I'd expected. Every time I took a picture, I felt like one eye looked smaller or more tired, and I became subconsciously self-conscious of how others looked at me. Even with makeup, I always felt like something was missing, which sapped my confidence and ingrained a long-standing complex. After much deliberation, I decided on double eyelid surgery, and the most significant change I noticed after the procedure was that my eyes felt more relaxed. With my eyes now balanced, my impressions became softer, and every time I looked in the mirror, I felt more natural than awkward. The asymmetry that had always bothered me before disappeared, and my mind felt much lighter. The best part, above all, is my confidence. When talking to people or taking pictures, I no longer feel self-conscious about my eyes, and my facial expressions have become more natural. It's not just a change in my appearance; it feels like I've let go of a complex that's plagued me for so long. This surgery was a truly wise choice, bringing me not only external changes but also internal stability and satisfaction.

View more[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.

Let's check together to see which category your teeth fall into! 📌 1. Facial asymmetry that bothers me every time I take a photo—is correction the answer? If your chin is turned to one side or the corners of your mouth are at different heights, it may not be just a simple habit issue. People with perfect symmetry are rare, but if the asymmetry is noticeably severe, you need to be careful. 🔸 The habit of chewing on only one side This is because if this continues for a long time, the jawbone can develop asymmetrically and the overall balance may be disrupted. ⚠️ What happens if left unattended? If asymmetry worsens, it puts strain on the jaw joint, which may cause a clicking sound or be accompanied by headaches. In mild cases, orthodontics alone can restore balance to chewing function and refine the jawline, so early diagnosis is crucial! 🩺 2. What functional problems arise from a protruding lower jaw (prognathism)? 'Class III malocclusion,' where the lower jaw protrudes forward over the upper jaw, significantly affects food intake and pronunciation. A protruding jaw interferes with biting off food with the front teeth. Excessive strain on the molars You will give . 🦷 It can also cause slurred pronunciations like 's', 'j', and 'ch', leading to inconvenience in daily life.

Did you know that a blunt jawline or a receding chin can even lower your sleep quality? A receding lower jaw is closely related not only to dental health but also to 'breathing'. People with receding chins have upper teeth that overlap lower teeth too deeply Deep bite This is often accompanied. This can irritate the inside of the lower gums and harm gum health. 🔹 Especially if the jaw is pushed back, the airway narrows snoring or sleep apnea It can also cause the same sleep disorders. 😴 If you correct the position of your jaw through orthodontics, you can achieve not only a sophisticated profile but also a quality of life. Deep sleep and comfortable breathing You can receive a gift up to [date]. 4. Crooked extra teeth, are they not just a simple appearance issue? Overlapping teeth (crowding) are a critical weakness in oral hygiene management. Crowded teeth, the most common form of malocclusion, make it very difficult to remove food from between the teeth. No matter how hard you brush your teeth tooth decay or gum disease The probability of this occurring is bound to be very high. 📌 "Do I really have to have a healthy tooth extracted?" If space is very limited, tooth extraction may be necessary, but recently, due to advancements in technology Non-extraction orthodontics This possible case There are also many. 💡 Rather than worrying unconditionally, the priority is to find a method that suits you through a precise diagnosis. 5. What effect does a protruding mouth, which makes it difficult to close, have on health? If your lips part and wrinkles form on your chin even when you are still, suspect that you have a protruding mouth.

오수환 원장26.04.14Views 678Likes 2 [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!

캐시닥 운영진26.03.31Views 76Likes 4 The Differences Between Eyelid Surgery and Double Eyelid Surgery, and the Limitations of Non-Incisional Methods[4]
Non-incision double eyelid surgery is often misunderstood as “surgery to make the eyes bigger,” which causes a lot of confusion during the consultation stage. It is very important to distinguish between the concepts, as it can lead to unnecessary correction, especially if recommended even when the eye opening ability is normal. Double eyelid surgery and eye correction are completely different surgeries. Double eyelid surgery is a method of making the eyelid skin fold to make the eyes appear larger. On the other hand, eye correction is a surgery that strengthens the eye opening power in cases where the eye opening power is weak. in other words, Making small eyes look bigger What actually strengthens the power of opening one's eyes These two concepts have structurally different purposes. Why Non-Incisional Eyelid Surgery is Easy to Perform Non-incision double eyelid surgery involves folding the Miller muscle from the inside and tying it with thread without making an incision. However, because the eye is an organ that moves repeatedly, the structure that binds it can be affected by the movement. Additionally, there is a limitation that long-term maintenance is difficult due to the presence of inter-organizational volume resistance. This can cause disorientation during repetitive eye movements. When unnecessary non-incisional double eyelid surgery is a problem 1) Risk of overcorrection when eye opening power is normal If you have normal eye opening ability and undergo eye correction, side effects such as headaches and dizziness may occur due to overcorrection. In particular, patients with pseudoptosis often have skin and fat covering their eyes, making them appear smaller than they actually are, which can lead to unnecessary correction. 2) Confusion between pseudoptosis and true ptosis Self-diagnosis using the forehead can be difficult to distinguish between pseudoptosis and true ptosis. An accurate assessment should be made by lifting the eyelid skin and checking how much of the pupil is covered. The exposure of the beginning of the eyelashes and the degree to which the pupils are covered are important criteria for judgment. 3) Structural limitations of surgery for the purpose of enlarging the double eyelid Some surgical methods How to remove only the skin without creating adhesions Method of folding and tying only the Miller muscle The back is also used. In this case, problems such as scar exposure, minimal effect, and loosening may occur, and there are cases where it leads to reoperation. When is Non-Incisional Eyelid Surgery Necessary? The key criterion is “whether or not there is true ptosis.” If the ability to open the eyes is normal, eye correction itself may not be necessary, and may only result in the possibility of overcorrection side effects. Additionally, for patients with true ptosis, incisional blepharoplasty may be a more effective option than the non-incisional method, which is more prone to loosening. The reason why opinions on the necessity of eye correction differ greatly from hospital to hospital is often due to differences in diagnostic criteria. Therefore, rather than simply approaching it with the goal of “making the eyes look bigger,” it is important to determine the need for surgery based on an accurate diagnosis. By looking at actual consultation cases and comparing them to your own eye condition, your selection criteria often become clearer. 👇 See reviews from actual users I was very satisfied with my eye correction consultation at Namdong-gu Eco Clinic. 👇 See more posts about eye correction Is eyelid surgery really a "never-to-be-done" procedure?

캐시닥 운영진26.02.19Views 92Likes 3 What's the difference between orthodontic treatment and regular braces? Why dramatic changes are difficult.[4]
This is the question most frequently asked by people considering braces. “What is the difference from regular orthodontics?” If the problem is only about correcting the alignment of teeth, it is relatively easy to predict. but Bite correction is different from simple orthodontic treatment. Because there may be differences in treatment duration, outcome prediction, and satisfaction. Definition: What is orthodontics? No-brain correction Treatment that induces changes in appearance through tooth movement no see. The basic principle is the same as general correction. braces Protrusion correction Teeth alignment All of these methods involve moving teeth to create changes in appearance. However, the blind correction Focus on making the chin look more alive There is this. Principle: How can improvement be achieved? ✔ Basic operation method Blind improvement The principle of moving the upper teeth to induce the rotation of the lower jaw Use . This principle is the same regardless of whether or not the tooth is extracted. ✔ Differences from general correction division General correction chinless correction Treatment period relatively predictable It often takes longer Improvement prediction The change in teeth is clear Chin improvement varies greatly from person to person. Difficulty relatively standardized High difficulty level when proceeding only with the chin purpose The change in alignment of the teeth is usually noticeable. but The degree of improvement varies greatly from person to person and is difficult to predict. Therefore, satisfaction with the results can also vary greatly from person to person. The relationship between chinlessness and temporomandibular joint disorder Sometimes, a chinless face isn't just a cosmetic issue. There are reports that the prevalence of temporomandibular joint disease is relatively high in patients with no jaw. As temporomandibular joint disease progresses, the jaw may become shorter. The lower jaw may rotate backwards and the front teeth may appear. In severe cases, people may say, “It wasn’t originally chinless, but it seems like it has become chinless.” Therefore, it becomes important to distinguish whether changes in jaw shape are simply a cosmetic issue or are related to changes in the temporomandibular joint. Why does the chin appear to protrude? Just because it's not chinless doesn't mean it's protruding. But if your chin is behind you An effect that makes the lips appear relatively forward It happens. Conversely, in the case of a prognathism, the lips may appear more sunken. Ultimately, this is the nose-lips-chin Relative position relationship problem no see. The impact of extraction ✔ If not extracted Blind improvement is possible However, dramatic changes may be limited. ✔ In case of extraction Mouths come together The effect of making the chin look relatively more alive You can expect simultaneous improvement of jawline and mouth protrusion. However, the key criterion for deciding on extraction is The actual position of the mouth no see. If the mouth is not protruding due to the nose-lip relationship, an unnatural result may occur if the mouth is excessively retracted after extraction. So, there is no formula for “unconditional tooth extraction” in orthodontic treatment. Is re-correction possible? Re-correction is possible. But the most important condition is Health of teeth and gums no see. If your gums are weak If the tooth root is shortened If extraction has already been performed The extent of improvement may vary depending on these factors. Additionally, since the treatment period for orthodontic treatment is long, the opportunity cost of time and money must also be considered when re-correcting. 📌Improving the chin is not simply a matter of tooth arrangement, but depends on the positional relationship between the chin, lips, and nose and the treatment method chosen. 📌The actual change will vary from case to case depending on whether you choose extraction or consider re-correction. 👇 Check out the expert column 👇 [Health Column] Is it possible to create a missing chin with chin correction?
캐시닥 운영진26.02.13Views 48Likes 4 Is eyelid surgery really a "never-to-be-done" procedure? Distinguishing between the necessary and unnecessary.
Eyelid surgery is one of the surgeries that is always controversial in communities and videos. It is also common to see claims that “you should never get eye correction surgery.” But the crux of the matter is not the surgery itself, but the question of who needs it. 1️⃣ Why is eye correction so controversial? We need to start by defining eye correction. Eye correction is discussed in two main contexts. Ptosis surgery (disease) When the eyelids cover the pupil due to insufficient strength in the muscles that open the eyes, causing visual impairment → Diagnose the disease and perform surgery for treatment purposes Eye correction for cosmetic purposes When you want bigger eyes and a clearer impression, but it is not a disease An approach that uses the eye-opening structure to make the eyes look bigger → Rather than “treatment” Aesthetic choice Close to 👉 The eye correction covered in this article is For cosmetic purposes, not for the treatment of diseases no see. 2️⃣ When do you think eye correction is necessary? The most intuitive criteria presented by doctors When deciding whether to recommend eye surgery, some of the most common criteria doctors consider are: Black pupil exposure The pupils If it appears to be less than 80% If you only get double eyelid surgery, You may look more sleepy The ideal exposure range is About 80~90% If you don't meet this standard, your eyes may not look clear even if you only make double eyelids. 3️⃣ There are definitely cases where eye correction is not necessary. In the case of pseudoptosis The ability to open your eyes is normal. If the skin is sagging and covering the eyes This is called pseudoptosis. In this case Just fix the sagging skin In many cases, the pupils are fully exposed Eye correction may not be necessary In other words, “I avoid hospitals that recommend eye correction.” Distrust that arises when you recommend something to an eye that doesn't need it This is a claim that comes from . 4️⃣ Ultimately, the criteria for selection is 'expectations regarding eye size' What is important in the counseling process is The patient's desired final eye size no see. Doctors usually offer the following options: Choice A Just corrects sagging skin → Eyes look slightly clearer than they are now If you are satisfied with A → No need for eye correction Choice B A choice to make the eyes appear larger by increasing the exposure of the pupils. If you want B → you can consider eye correction There is no single correct answer; it depends on the desired outcome. 5️⃣ Non-incision double eyelid surgery isn't for everyone. Principle of non-incision method A method of double eyelid surgery in which threads are placed on the muscles that open the eyes, causing them to exert slightly more strength. The power to open your eyes If it's just a little bit lacking Considered only for When application is limited If you have a severe lack of strength to open your eyes If there is left-right asymmetry If your eyes have a lot of volume In this situation, non-incision double eyelid surgery is It may not be effective or suitable. Therefore, the choice of surgical method is the doctor's judgment, not the patient's. 6️⃣ How should we view the claim that “don’t get eye correction”? The statement that you should never get eye correction surgery is not a one-size-fits-all answer that can be applied in all cases. If you recommend it to eyes that don't need it, it becomes a problem. If you don't do it when necessary Double eyelids alone may not produce the desired impression. Eyelid surgery can be problematic when done excessively, but it can also be a valuable option when necessary. 7️⃣ To summarize Eye correction Not a cure for the disease Beauty Selection and Pupil exposure and desired eye size According to It depends on whether you need it or not. What's important is It's not "You absolutely must do it / You absolutely must not do it" Accurately distinguish between your own eye condition and your expectations no see.
