In the past, I didn't take good care of my removable retainer for my front teeth that were corrected at another dental clinic, and they became crooked again. I heard I needed to get re-corrected, and it took me some time to decide, but I finally went for it. I hate dental treatments and they usually take such a long time, which is tough for me, but the doctor assured me that he would finish my correction as quickly as possible, and his sense of responsibility made my decision easier. To my surprise, the process went much more comfortably than I expected. There were times during my monthly visits that I was so relaxed I almost fell asleep. I was reluctant to get re-corrected because of the rubber bands, but it turned out that wearing them wasn't uncomfortable at all, and I adapted quickly. I can't believe I didn't do this treatment sooner. I'm very satisfied with the results of my correction.

I haven't been undergoing treatment for facial asymmetry for very long, but I've recently started to notice visible changes in my teeth, as they're actually moving. Especially when I look in the mirror or take photos, I can feel a subtle shift in alignment, making me really aware of the corrective effects. Right now, I'm at the stage where only some teeth have brackets and I'm wearing rubber bands, but the initial discomfort I felt has greatly reduced over time. Above all, the dental hygienists helping with my treatment have always been kind in explaining everything and attentive to my needs, which made things less stressful for me. I've gotten so used to wearing the rubber bands that it feels odd now when I don’t. Although I’m not in a major transformation phase yet, I’m satisfied with the gradual changes I see and I'm looking forward to what’s to come.

Today, I went to the dentist for my braces. As I entered the clinic, the smell of disinfectant made me a bit nervous. After checking in and waiting for a moment, I went into the treatment room. The doctor carefully checked my teeth again and closely examined if the braces fit well. It hurt a little when the wires were tightened, but thinking about my straightening teeth made it bearable. The hygienist also explained again how to brush my teeth and how to put on the rubber bands. After the treatment, I looked in the mirror and, although it felt a bit awkward, I became excited about how different I would look over time. On my way out, I made my next appointment and headed home. I was nervous, but they took good care of me.

I was really worried about a part of my teeth that was slightly overlapping, so I decided to visit the dentist for an orthodontic consultation. After registering, they checked my teeth alignment with an oral scan and took panoramic and side X-rays. Then, the doctor showed me my current condition on the screen and explained the issues of lack of space and bite problems, and we made a plan to organize my teeth without extractions. Before attaching the braces, I had my teeth cleaned through scaling, and then they attached brackets to each tooth and connected the wires. It was a little uncomfortable to keep my mouth open for a long time, but they checked my status frequently, so it went smoothly. Right after the braces were attached, I felt a tightness in my teeth, especially my front teeth felt sensitive. In the first few days, I avoided hard foods and mostly ate porridge or soft meals to adjust. When brushing, I used an orthodontic toothbrush and an interdental brush along with my regular toothbrush, being careful to clean out any food particles. The clinic provided specific instructions on when and how to use rubber bands and how to care for the area around the braces, which made it easier for me to manage on my own. I go in once a month to replace the wires and adjust the tension. On adjustment days, I felt a little soreness for about a day, but it was less painful than before. As the months passed, I could visibly see the overlapping parts gradually aligning, and I noticed that the spacing between my teeth was balancing out. Although the orthodontic process is still ongoing, experiencing it firsthand made me realize that regular visits and care have a significant impact on the results, and I felt that having an accurate examination and planning at the beginning is crucial.
