Straightening teeth is only part of orthodontic treatment. A stable bite, smooth jaw movement and harmony with the face determine whether results last. Seoul Top Dental Hospital’s Orthodontic Center plans treatment across all three.
Building the treatment plan
The first visit combines X-rays, intraoral scanning and facial analysis to assess crowding, skeletal relationships and bite condition. The orthodontist then explains the feasible options — conventional braces, lingual braces or clear aligners — and how they differ in scope, duration and wearing experience.
Orthodontics as an adult
Adults can absolutely undergo orthodontic treatment, but gum health becomes a bigger factor: any periodontal issues are treated first. For patients also considering implants or restorations, the sequence of treatments is planned as a whole.
Managing treatment from abroad
Orthodontic treatment runs on a timescale of months to years with periodic adjustment visits. For patients living overseas, visit frequency and remote communication can be agreed with the hospital before treatment begins.
Clinic in Korea can arrange orthodontic consultations at Seoul Top Dental Hospital for international patients.
