Hello.

This is Ceramic Dental Clinic, the orthodontic clinic at Hakdong Station.

As the word “grooming” has become common, more and more men these days are taking an interest in their appearance, and many are approaching orthodontic treatment from a cosmetic perspective as well.

Our teeth are an important element that stands out first when we smile brightly, and they often have a big influence on likability and trust.

In fact, regardless of whether they are teenagers or adults, we have been seeing many male patients from their teens to their 20s and older.

However, orthodontic treatment was originally developed as a field for treating malocclusion, so it should not be approached from an aesthetic perspective alone; it must also take functional aspects into account.

In other words, a detailed consultation with an orthodontic specialist who has extensive experience is essential!

Then, let us now introduce a case of a male patient in his 20s who received orthodontic treatment at our clinic.

Orthodontic Before-and-After Case for a Man in His 20s

The orthodontic case we will look at today is a man in his 20s who had a large gap between his teeth, so it was a major complex for him that he could not smile freely when he wanted to.

※ Why do teeth become gapped?

1. When there is extra space in the gums relative to the teeth
2. When the number of teeth is fewer than normal
3. When the teeth are excessively protruded
4. When there are teeth that are much smaller in size
5. When the tongue is large
6. When gum disease is severe

In these cases, gaps can form between the teeth.

※ Why treatment for gapped teeth is needed First, there is an aesthetic reason, as confidence drops when smiling or speaking.

Also, if left untreated, the alignment of the teeth may become distorted, food may get stuck more easily, and speech issues may also occur, so treatment is recommended.

※ How gapped teeth are treated In most cases, gapped teeth can be treated through orthodontics, and depending on the situation, some prosthetic treatment may be combined as well.

Orthodontic Treatment Plan for a Man in His 20s This male patient in his 20s had relatively even overall alignment, and the number and size of his teeth were also normal, so the expected treatment period was planned to be short, at about 10 to 12 months.

Also, we proceeded with non-extraction orthodontic treatment, with no separate tooth extraction.

Treatment Results The treatment was completed exactly 10 months later, as planned.

Before orthodontic treatment, he could not smile widely because he wanted to hide the gaps between his teeth, but after treatment, his bright smile was more impressive than anyone else’s. 👍

※ A quick note here!

After orthodontic treatment, the midline of the front teeth may appear not to match.

Because orthodontic treatment aims to align the bite of the molars (the upper and lower teeth fitting together), depending on the size of the teeth, the midlines of the upper and lower front teeth may not match exactly.^^

We omitted the 10-month orthodontic treatment process and showed only the before-and-after results briefly,

but by attaching braces to the upper and lower teeth, improving the alignment of the teeth and closing the gaps, and using mini-screws to move the teeth and improve the bite, even the molar occlusion was perfectly improved.

If you are considering orthodontic treatment, not only adults in their 20s, but also people starting in their 40s and 50s are increasing, so do not hesitate and get a consultation from an orthodontic specialist~!
