We’ll Tell You the Entire Orthodontic Treatment Process in Gangildo, from Start to Finish!

Hello!

I am Lee Ju-ri, CEO and lead dentist at Seoul Vardi Dental Clinic.

Are you thinking about orthodontic treatment because your teeth are crooked?

Since it is your first time starting,

there are probably many things you are wondering about, such as how the process works..

and what materials you should choose.

We’ll tell you the entire orthodontic treatment process in Gangildo, from start to finish!

Please follow along with the order of the article to see how it progresses~!!

1. Orthodontic consultation and examination

Once you decide on orthodontic treatment in Gangildo,

the first step is to understand your dental condition.

You need to check what condition the roots of your teeth are in,

and whether there are any cavities.

Several examinations are necessary!!

(1) Initial consultation

First, you need to visit the dental clinic and consult with a specialist.

During the consultation, we identify why you want orthodontic treatment

and provide sufficient counseling to determine whether it can be solved with orthodontics.

(2) Detailed examination

After the initial consultation, a detailed examination is performed for a more accurate diagnosis.

This is the X-ray image that is taken only when getting orthodontic treatment~

Panoramic, cephalometric

Depending on age, a hand X-ray may also be taken~

An impression of the teeth is made to analyze the current shape of the teeth!

There is so much to analyze!!!

2. Choosing and attaching the orthodontic appliance

Once the accurate diagnosis is complete,

we need to decide how the orthodontic treatment will be carried out.

Orthodontic appliances can be broadly divided into fixed appliances and removable appliances.

You need to decide whether to proceed with wires~

or with clear aligners that can be inserted and removed.

The types of braces are explained in detail in the post above,

so please refer to it!

3. Tooth movement process

If the patient’s concerns have been addressed,

from here on, all that remains is moving the teeth!

The principle of orthodontic treatment is to use an appliance

to apply force to the teeth and move them to the desired position.

The treatment period varies depending on

the reason for orthodontic treatment,

and whether it is being done partially

or comprehensively.

It can range from as short as 6 months to as long as 3 years!

I’ll explain this in more detail in a future post~!

4. Wearing and managing retainers

Just because orthodontic treatment is over does not mean the treatment is completely finished.

Sadly, teeth have a tendency

to return to their original position~

That is why we make retainers.

Sometimes we attach a wire to the back of the teeth like this,

and sometimes we make a removable device that can be worn at night~

In many cases, both are used.

If retainers are neglected,

there is a possibility that the teeth may shift again~

< Summary of today’s post>

Today, I introduced the orthodontic treatment process in blog form.

Orthodontic treatment is not simply about attaching an appliance.

It is a process that requires a long time and effort

to straighten misaligned teeth!

If you are planning orthodontic treatment,

through sufficient consultation with your Gangildo orthodontic primary dentist,

choose the treatment method that is right for you,

and achieve satisfying results!!
