Orthodontics

Greetings

Our department provides orthodontic treatment to people of all ages from young to elderly people who have difficulty chewing, eating or speaking, or those who are concerned about their appearance due to bad tooth alignment or bad bite (malocclusion). Please consult us if you have trouble with malocclusion.
 

Outline

Medical care system

We provide dental care to more than 300 new patients each year. Our aim is to achieve proper and beautiful teeth alignment, bite and appearance that will remain stable for a long period of time.

Treatment policy

We accurately consider the condition of malocclusion in terms of form and function, provide different options to achieve proper occlusion, and decide on a definitive course of treatment based on the patients’ wishes. We cooperate with the relevant medical and dental departments as needed.
