Comparison of Orthodontic Costs
Orthodontic Treatment Cost
Orthodontic Cost Summary
A smile occupies an important part of life,
and this smile affects not only first impressions,
but also relationships with people
during life
and business,
so a beautiful smile has naturally
become a standard of beauty.
If you have crooked teeth or a misaligned bite,
it is seen as being outside the standard of beauty,
so more and more people are choosing orthodontic treatment for a beautiful smile.
Before getting orthodontic treatment, if you are looking into orthodontic treatment costs,
I hope this post on comparison and summary of orthodontic costs will help you make a choice.
4-Month Rapid Partial Orthodontics

Orthodontic treatment cost
is proportional to the treatment period,
so when doing partial orthodontics,
4-month rapid orthodontics is possible,
making it the most economical
and affordable option
for orthodontic treatment.
If you choose orthodontics for either the upper or lower jaw only,
the treatment period becomes even shorter,
allowing you to receive orthodontic treatment at an even lower cost.

If the molar bite is aligned,
if the canine position does not deviate greatly from the normal position,
and if the gap between the front teeth is within 3 mm,
4-month rapid partial orthodontics is possible,
and the cost is around 1.2 million KRW on average.
(Different depending on the hospital’s size and circumstances, and the patient’s condition)
Metal Orthodontics

The next most affordable orthodontic treatment cost
would be metal braces.
Made of stainless steel,
the appliance is strong,
the orthodontic effect is excellent,
and the cost is low,
but its drawback is that it is the least aesthetic.
The average cost is around 3.5 million KRW.
(Different depending on the hospital’s size and circumstances, and the patient’s condition)
Ceramic Orthodontics

The next most affordable orthodontic treatment cost
would be ceramic braces.
Made of ceramic (porcelain),
it is similar in color to teeth,
the orthodontic effect is excellent,
and the cost is low,
but the drawback is that its aesthetics are still not very good and there is a risk of breakage.
The average cost is around 4 million KRW.
(Different depending on the hospital’s size and circumstances, and the patient’s condition)
Combination Orthodontics

The next most affordable orthodontic treatment cost
would be combination braces.
Combination orthodontics
is the use of metal braces, ceramic braces, and lingual braces together,
so it is less noticeable,
has excellent orthodontic effect,
and can save on cost.
For upper teeth that are more visible, lingual braces can be used;
for lower teeth that are less visible, ceramic braces;
for molars that are not visible at all, metal braces;
and so on, it can be applied in various ways.
Lingual Orthodontics

A higher-priced orthodontic treatment cost
includes lingual braces.
Lingual orthodontics
is the attachment of appliances to the inner side of the teeth,
so they are completely invisible,
and the orthodontic effect is excellent,
but the cost is high
and speech problems may occur.
Depending on the material of the appliance,
it may be priced higher than clear aligners.
Clear Aligners

Another higher-priced orthodontic treatment cost
is clear aligners.
Clear aligners
are made of special plastic material,
are completely invisible,
and have excellent orthodontic effects,
but they are expensive
and may be somewhat limited.
If you want only an appliance that is completely invisible,
lingual orthodontics and clear aligners are the only options.
Since lingual orthodontics may cause speech problems,
for occupations where pronunciation is important, such as announcers, actors, and singers,
clear aligners become the only option.
These days, even for people outside those professions,
speech problems can make someone seem dull,
so clear aligners are also preferred by office workers for whom presentations are important.
Among clear aligner systems,
to pay a reasonable orthodontic treatment cost,
you can consider the following:
Didiheim < NanoLiner, MagicLiner, Serafin < Invisalign
(Different depending on the hospital’s size and circumstances, and the patient’s condition)
