I had it done at ㄱㅇㅁㅅ Dental Clinic in Gangnam. I had consultations at 6 places in Gangnam that are said to be good, and at first I went around to consultations without thinking much, but when I saw that they explained things with attention to aesthetics, I felt like this was the place and chose it. At Dental Clinic, no, I made an appointment and went, but they made me wait over an hour, which was so irritating that I just stormed out. ㄹㅇㅂ Dental Clinic was just decent and okay. ㅇㄹㅂ Dental Clinic was very, very good, but the price was too expensive. ㄱㄴㄱㅇ Dental Clinic was so honest that, for me, they explained as much as possible how I could do it without extractions and explained the importance of each tooth, saying I didn’t need extraction orthodontics,,, but I wanted to do it... When getting an inlay, everyone, go to ㄱㄴㄱㅇ^^ ㄴㅇ Dental Clinic was a long time ago, so I don’t remember well. It was average.
Anyway, at the ㄱㅇㅁㅅ Dental Clinic where I had mine done, when extracting teeth, they numbed me in stages so even the anesthesia didn’t hurt, they did checkups every month, took care with cavity treatment, and for orthodontics, the same dentist carefully checked me every month and explained things well. When treating cavities, a dentist specializing in cavities saw me and explained everything very thoroughly. I can’t explain it in words. I chose at least one dental clinic well, so it’s okay to go here.
For orthodontics, I used Clippy-C braces, and the cost was 3 million won for the appliance fee, paid in installments over 20 months, plus a monthly fee of 50,000 won, so I pay 200,000 won each month. It has only been 10 months now, but my orthodontic movement is fast, so the extraction spaces are almost all closed. Starting next month, they said that because my molar occlusion is not good, we will also correct the molars. And during all the orthodontic treatment so far, when I went each month, including when changing the elastics, it never hurt. Do I have a constitution suited to orthodontics? The most uncomfortable thing is that food gets stuck in my teeth a lot.
My protruding mouth was not severe enough for friends to notice unless I mentioned it first, but I had always lacked confidence, thinking my side profile would have been nice if only it looked okay. That was what made me start orthodontic treatment. Of course, at the time the protrusion was mild, so I was scared and debated whether I really had to extract teeth or not. But recently I’ve been hearing a lot that my side line is prettier than my front view, and every time I take photos of my side profile, I feel it looks okay, so I absolutely don’t regret it. I think deciding to get orthodontic treatment back then was a really good decision.
