Reason for visit: My teeth keep jutting forward more and more,

so I can’t smile freely when I laugh.

ㅠㅠ

Today, we’d like to introduce a non-extraction Invisalign orthodontic case for a patient who visited us with the above concern.

The patient had received bracket orthodontic treatment 10 years ago,

but was worried because the front teeth were gradually protruding more and more.

To improve the angle of the protruded upper front teeth,

two orthodontic treatment plans could be considered:

The first was Invisalign orthodontic treatment without extraction, or The second was extraction of four premolars followed by conventional wire braces.

Total treatment period: 23/4 - 24/11

Extraction orthodontics involving removal of four premolars can make it easier to improve the angle of protruding front teeth, but it can also change facial appearance.

In this patient’s case,

because the mouth was not particularly protrusive,

there was a possibility that extraction could instead make the mouth look too sunken,

so the decision was made to proceed without extraction using non-extraction Invisalign orthodontic treatment :)

Q. Is it possible to do orthodontic treatment without extraction?

When protruding front teeth are present and there is not much space between the teeth,

if orthodontic treatment is done without extraction,

the teeth can be aligned evenly, but because there is not enough space,

the front teeth may ultimately protrude even more than before treatment.

In such cases,

we recommend non-extraction Invisalign, which has its own arch-expansion function!

Total treatment period: 23/4 - 24/11

This patient completed treatment with three ClinChecks using one of Invisalign’s options,

Invisalign Comprehensive.

(Invisalign Comprehensive is used in cases where the malocclusion is relatively severe and more Invisalign aligners are needed.)

1st ClinCheck (23 aligners)

First ClinCheck treatment period: 23/4~23/9

In the first ClinCheck,

23 aligners were used.

Can you see how much the protruding front teeth have been pulled back?

As the arch gradually expanded and through minimal interproximal reduction,

the protruding front teeth moved inward, and the upper and lower teeth that were touching are gradually finding their proper positions.

Invisalign, which holds hundreds of patents around the world,

supports patients so they can enjoy daily life even during orthodontic treatment with:

  1. High esthetics
  2. Removability
  3. Hygienic care
  4. Comfort and less pain
  5. Maximized treatment efficiency

At UPenn Bareun Dental Clinic,

Director Kim Seung-woo spends several hours revising each patient’s Invisalign ClinCheck. :)

2nd ClinCheck (17 aligners)

Second ClinCheck treatment period: 23/11~24/2

In the second ClinCheck,

17 aligners were used.

Additional attachments were placed,

and the detailed work continued.

The protrusive angle has improved a lot as well :)

Because Invisalign can produce different results depending on who designs it and how,

it is most important to start at Gangnam Invisalign Diamond-level

UPenn Bareun Dental Clinic, which has a high level of skill and extensive experience.

3rd ClinCheck (30 aligners)

Third ClinCheck treatment period: 24/4~24/11

Finally, the treatment was completed with 30 ClinCheck aligners.

The patient came in worried that the teeth looked protruded and that the lower lip also looked somewhat protruded.

Through Invisalign orthodontic treatment, not only the aesthetic aspects of the teeth but also the functional aspects could be improved. :)

Total treatment period: 23/4 - 24/11

Although the patient had received bracket orthodontic treatment 10 years ago,

he was worried because the teeth were gradually protruding more and more.

Through non-extraction Invisalign,

not only were the tooth alignment and the front teeth angle improved, but the facial appearance also seemed to improve,

making the side profile look more harmonious as well. :)

If your front teeth protrude and you can’t smile broadly and are worried about it,

why not regain a beautiful smile at
