4 Essential Questions to Ask at an Orthodontic Clinic in Gangdong-gu

Hello~

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

In the past, orthodontic treatment was mostly done by students, but these days, people of all ages and genders are getting it~

Orthodontic treatment is the dental treatment with the longest treatment period.

It also costs a lot.

That’s why it’s important to choose a clinic carefully!

Today, I’ll introduce something you absolutely must ask:

4 questions you must ask even if you don’t know much about orthodontics

First, ask about the expected treatment period and the orthodontic method.

These days, 9 out of 10 patients seem to want clear aligners~

But you should also ask whether there are other options, such as bonded braces,

ceramic braces, metal braces, and other methods?

And what are the advantages of those braces? You should ask~

Also, be sure to ask about the expected treatment period~

Ask whether treatment may take longer if you proceed with clear aligners~

Second: Are there any total costs or additional charges?

Orthodontic treatment is generally expensive and takes a long time, so there may be additional costs beyond the initially quoted fee.

The treatment plan may also changeㅠㅠ

Ask clearly whether there is a monthly fee in addition to the orthodontic fee.

How much extra treatment costs are for things like mini-screws? It’s important to ask clearly!!

Third: How are emergencies handled?

During orthodontic treatment in Gangdong-gu, unexpected situations can sometimes occur.

A bracket may come off while eating hard food, or a wire may injure the inside of your mouth, and there are also cases where unexpected pain becomes severe.

For these reasons, it’s best if the clinic is close to home.

You have to visit often, and if something happens, your mouth can become very uncomfortableㅠㅠ

Some people even cut the wire at home before they come to the dental clinic.

So ask whether the clinic can respond quickly in an emergency and whether the clinic has a day off!!

Also, if an emergency occurs, ask how you should contact them!!

4. How is maintenance handled after treatment?

Even after orthodontic treatment ends successfully, teeth have a tendency to return to their original stateㅠㅠ

That’s why you need to wear a fixed retainer attached to your teeth for life and also use a removable retainer~

Retention care is essential!!

Ask what kind of retention care will be provided and whether there are separate costs!

If you learn how carefully the clinic manages retention care, you’ll be able to trust them even more, right~?

Compare carefully through these 4 questions.

As a final tip....

How well can they answer the patient’s questions?

It would be good to check whether they devote enough time to the patient and pay close attention~~

For a more satisfying orthodontic treatment, that is!!
