Orthodontic Dentistry
Teeth alignment is important not only for your appearance but also for your oral health. Proper teeth alignment improves oral hygiene, and consequently prevents various dental problems such as cavities and gum disease.
However, more and more people are having teeth alignment problems such as crooked teeth and impacted wisdom teeth because of atrophy of the human jawbones in recent years. So the role of orthodontic dentistry is getting more important.
In order to improve your teeth alignment efficiently and to maintain good oral condition, it's important to have an appropriate treatment for your age. Below are some examples of our age-appropriate treatment menus.
Orthodontic treatment for children
The main purposes of orthodontic treatment for children are to help their teeth grow in the proper positions and to form beautiful facial structures. Children's tooth development and jaw growth have not been completed, so it's still easy to help children's teeth and jaw to grow properly.
Along with the treatment, we provide regular dental checkups, dental health education and fluoride preventive treatments to maintain good oral condition.
Orthodontic treatment for adolescents
In adolescents, tooth development and jaw growth have almost been completed, so we firstly check if you really need orthodontic treatment. If we find you need it, we reform your teeth alignment and jaw formation to create beautiful facial structure.
For your dental health, we also provide general preventive treatments as well as regular dental checkups and dental education.
Orthodontic treatment for adults
For adults, in addition to form beautiful dental occlusion and balanced facial structure by orthodontic treatment, we provide preventive treatments for periodontal disease to keep your teeth healthy for life.
If you wish to focus on esthetic treatments to pursue beauty, we can provide you various treatments like teeth whitening, facial esthetic treatment and lip treatment.
Invisalign braces (Plastic mouth pieces)
Invisalign braces use clear, plastic mouth pieces that gradually straighten crooked teeth. Unlike traditional metal-wire braces, they are almost invisible. In addition to the invisibility, you can eat and brush your teeth as usual because the braces are removable. What's more, you need fewer visits to dentists because Invisalign braces are easier to maintain.
