Why It’s Good to Start Children’s Orthodontics During the School Break in Gangdong-gu

Hello~

I’m Lee Ju-ri, the chief director of Seoul Bardi Dental Clinic.

Orthodontics that changes teeth

There are different types and timing for orthodontic treatment.

Since graduation and the school break season are coming soon,

I wrote this post hoping you could make plans in advance, haha.

I’ve written this post.

Why It’s Good to Start Children’s Orthodontics During the School Break in Gangdong-gu

Why is now the right time~?

Please read to the end!!

Reasons to Start Orthodontic Treatment During the School Break I also remember thinking back to when I was a student... when is the break going to come....

I used to count the days until it arrived~

Although I had to go to academies...

I had a lot of free time,

so I looked forward to the school break.

I would also take care of things I had put off, like visiting hospitals or going to the hair salon~

Because there is plenty of time~

During the school break, with relatively more free time,

it is the perfect time to start orthodontic treatment in Gangdong-gu!!

Especially when starting orthodontics for the first time, various restrictions can arise.

An adjustment period is needed,

and education also needs to be provided~

Even the brushing method... is different,

From my experience, during the school term, schedules for academies and other activities often made time very tight,

so it is better to start during the school break without feeling rushed!!

Second, adapting to discomfort

Whether it is clear aligner treatment or treatment using attached appliances,

when you first start, you may feel some pain or a foreign-body sensation inside the mouth.

When you wear new shoes, the heel can rub raw, right~

When a new appliance is inserted and pressure is applied to the teeth, it can feel uncomfortable,

and if you listen to classes in that state,

you really do keep noticing it.

During the school break, there is plenty of time to rest at home,

so there is less stress from the new changes,

and you can adapt to the discomfort~

Third, for frequent visits and management

In the early stage of orthodontic treatment, you need to visit the dental clinic several times.

Before the full orthodontic process begins, a diagnosis must be made,

and you also need to hear the explanation of the results.

If treatment is decided, it starts with cavity treatment.

This is because treatment during orthodontics can be difficult~

Also, I mentioned that the brushing method is different, right?

If brackets are attached, brushing may not be done properly,

so several rounds of instruction are needed until the patient can do it well on their own!!

Because it is easier to adjust the schedule,

the school break season is the right time.

For reference, the proper time to start orthodontic treatment differs for each person!!

In general, the appropriate time is from the upper grades of elementary school to middle school, when all permanent teeth have come in.

However, whether jaw correction is needed or only the teeth need to be moved,

there are things to consider,

so a consultation with an examination is necessary~ By listing these three advantages, I said that the school break is the best time to start orthodontic treatment for children.

Please be sure to check before visiting!!!!

In the case of clear aligners, the appliance must be worn for 20 to 22 hours.

If children do not cooperate,

orthodontic treatment will not be carried out properly!!!

Therefore, communication with the child is essential!!

Also, when appliances are attached,

it can cause psychological withdrawal.

The teenage years are when people are most concerned about appearance,

so at first it can feel unfamiliar, and the treatment itself can be stressful~

Sticky foods must also be avoided,

and food that causes staining, such as curry, should also be avoided;

it can be difficult because there are things they are told not to do~

At orthodontic clinics in Gangdong-gu as well,

why the treatment is needed,

and how it will change,

we explain it every time, but I think the people who can talk more comfortably with children are their parents.

You can do it~

Please encourage them, and until the treatment is finished,

lead them with praise and support~

Orthodontic treatment, along with functional improvement,

may be the best choice because it can also give confidence.

For the future of our children,

if you are considering orthodontic treatment,

I recommend starting with a diagnosis first, and I’ll wrap it up here.

Thank you!!
