Transparent Orthodontic Devices Other Than Invisalign

MagicAlign / Serafin / Didiheim

Types of Transparent Orthodontic Treatment

Transparent orthodontic treatment originally began as a manually made process.

As manually made transparent orthodontic appliances lacked precision,

they were digitized into

digital transparent orthodontic appliances.

Because the first digital transparent orthodontic appliance

was Invisalign, which is headquartered in the United States,

some people mistakenly think that Invisalign is the treatment method for transparent orthodontics, or that Invisalign and transparent orthodontics are the same thing.

So when they see other names such as

NanoLiner for transparent orthodontics,

MagicAlign for transparent orthodontics,

Serafin for transparent orthodontics,

Didiheim for transparent orthodontics,

they become confused about transparent orthodontics,

which slows down their decision about orthodontic treatment.

I will clarify this clearly.

Don't keep postponing your decision about orthodontic treatment.

The representative transparent orthodontic appliances are

Invisalign, NanoLiner, MagicAlign, Serafin, and Didiheim.

Among these, the most widely recognized transparent orthodontic appliance is

Invisalign,

but because it is headquartered in the United States,

it takes time to receive the appliance,

and it can be difficult to respond quickly to variables.

It is also the most expensive.

A competitive transparent orthodontic appliance that can rival it is

NanoLiner.

Because it is manufactured in Korea through setup by an orthodontic specialist and a dental lab technician specializing in teeth,

it can be delivered quickly,

it allows rapid response to changing conditions,

and it has the competitive advantages of causing the least pain and requiring the shortest treatment period.

In this way, Invisalign and NanoLiner are

the best-known brands among the types of transparent orthodontic treatment.

MagicAlign, Serafin, and Didiheim,

on the other hand, are relatively less well known,

so they are often left out of patients' considerations.

However, MagicAlign, Serafin, and Didiheim are also strong brands manufactured in Korea,

so I will explain these three less widely recognized types of transparent orthodontic treatment.

MagicAlign

This is a type of transparent orthodontic treatment produced through a partnership between Kojan, a subsidiary of Osstem, Korea's largest implant company, and Hewit, Korea's No. 1 orthodontic bracket manufacturer.

Reflecting Osstem's management philosophy of contributing to human health by helping dentists provide better care,

it offers the ability to treat cavities during orthodontic treatment

and custom-made retainers,

showing strong competitiveness.

The main features of MagicAlign are as follows:

This is a type of transparent orthodontic treatment produced by TNS, a subsidiary of DENTIS, a well-known Korean implant company, by benchmarking the Invisalign brand.

Reflecting DENTIS's management philosophy as a dental and medical solution company that promotes health and a happy life,

it shows competitiveness through reasonable costs and the provision of a gum massage device (vacuum device), among other features.

The main features of Serafin are as follows:

• No difference in sheet quality compared to Invisalign

• Improved wearing comfort while preserving Invisalign's advantages

• Gum massage device provided to shorten the pain period

This is a type of transparent orthodontic treatment launched by DDIH Neobiotech, a well-known Korean implant company.

DDIH, an AI-based digital dental care and service platform,

was jointly developed with the School of Dentistry at Seoul National University as an industry-academia collaboration center for artificial intelligence,

and shows competitiveness through its low cost and AI-based production.

The main features of Serafin are as follows:

• Provides a total service for AI-based remote diagnosis and treatment planning

• Consists of a total of 3 steps (soft-hard-hard)

• Provides precise reading opinions from faculty members of the Department of Radiology, Seoul National University Dental Hospital

Transparent Orthodontic Diagnosis and Treatment Planning

These types of transparent orthodontic treatment differ in the most suitable appliance depending on each situation, condition, and environment.

Therefore, when selecting a type of transparent orthodontic treatment for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan,

a thorough consultation with the medical staff is necessary.

In any case, if a clinic has a wide variety of transparent orthodontic treatment types,

it will naturally be advantageous for making an objective decision when choosing among them.

The only dental clinic near Gangnam Station

that has all types of transparent orthodontic treatment is Gangnam Saero Dental Clinic.

In addition, Dr. Jeon Jae-min,

a celebrity orthodontic primary doctor and visiting professor at Yonsei University Severance Hospital,

is in charge of the orthodontic department,

so I hope you achieve

a new smile

a new beginning

at Gangnam Saero Dental Clinic.
