Hello,
Jamsil orthodontics clinic known for good treatment,
Jamsil non-extraction orthodontics,
Jamsil Station orthodontic dental clinic,
and UPenn Barun Dental Clinic.
How have you all been?


Orthodontic period 21/7~24/7
A lot of gum shows when I smile.
My front teeth also look crooked.

Orthodontic period 21/7~24/7
Today,
we would like to introduce a non-extraction orthodontic case for a patient who visited us at the address above :)
What is a gummy smile?
It refers to gums being shown excessively compared to the teeth.
When more than 2–3 mm of gum is visible above the teeth while smiling,
it is called a gummy smile,
and it is characterized by the teeth appearing short.
Treatment methods for gummy smile include
surgery, orthodontics, gingivectomy, and Botox for the upper lip.
In cases of gummy smile accompanied by malocclusion,
'orthodontics' is the most effective treatment method,
and after orthodontic treatment is completed,
without any additional suturing procedure,
you can finish with UPenn Barun Dental Clinic's
gum laser procedure :)

21/4
Before starting orthodontic treatment,
when we checked the X-ray,
there were several areas that had previously received cavity treatment,
and there were many cavities T^T
Since the X-ray showed a noticeably urgent need for cavity treatment,
for conservative treatment,
Dr. Kim Seung-woo, who is also a master of composite resin treatment,
personally treated the cavities by area! ^^
Actually..
Dr. Kim Seung-woo of UPenn Barun Dental Clinic in Jamsil,
not only pursues perfection in Invisalign and orthodontic treatment,
but is also a multi-talented doctor who strives for perfection in general dentistry such as cavity treatment and implants ^^
If cavity treatment is needed before, during, or after orthodontic treatment,
a major advantage of UPenn Barun Dental Clinic is that
you can receive both cavity treatment and orthodontic treatment from one doctor.


Orthodontic period 21/7~24/7
This patient underwent non-extraction ceramic orthodontics.
At UPenn Barun Dental Clinic,
a dental clinic known for excellent ceramic orthodontics in Songpa,
through ceramic braces,
because the arch was narrow compared to the size of the teeth,
the crooked teeth found their proper positions,
and unlike before, when the front teeth were biting into each other,
the bite was properly aligned through Jamsil non-extraction orthodontics.
The patient had some gaps in the middle of the orthodontic treatment
because of overseas schedules,
and UPenn Barun Dental Clinic
made the treatment with the patient's schedule in mind as much as possible :)
Retention devices were attached to the back of the upper and lower front teeth
to prevent the teeth from moving back and to finish the treatment. ^^
Ceramic braces,
unlike metal braces,
are made from a transparent ceramic composite material similar to the color of teeth, so they are aesthetically excellent.
UPenn Barun Dental Clinic uses Japanese self-ligating Clippy-C ceramic brackets and Clarity brackets from 3M in the United States.


After orthodontic treatment was completed,
we improved the gummy smile through gum laser treatment
to balance the gum line.
Gum laser treatment is performed after simple anesthesia,
and since it does not involve bleeding or suturing,
you can return to daily life immediately!
After orthodontic treatment, professional teeth whitening treatment
made the teeth look even brighter.
(UPenn Barun Dental Clinic is also well known for teeth whitening ㅎㅎ)

Right: Smile Arc well formed after orthodontic treatment.
Also,
after orthodontic treatment,
the smile arc the patient wanted was well formed, creating a more refined and beautiful smile :)
The standard of an attractive and beautiful smile considered by orthodontists is called the 'Smile Arc.'
It refers to the relationship between
the curve formed by connecting the incisal edges of the upper front six teeth
and
the curve of the lower lip when smiling.
When these two curves are parallel, it is considered the standard for a beautiful smile.
Looking at the photo, the patient's harmonious smile arc has formed nicely :)
Orthodontic treatment not only offers the benefits of a beautiful smile and dental health,
but the psychological effects of orthodontic treatment
are said to show positive results in various aspects.
Jamsil orthodontic treatment that gives you confidence when smiling!!
At UPenn Barun Dental Clinic, a Jamsil orthodontic clinic with an ABO-certified American orthodontic specialist on site,
