Invisalign Case

In their 20s. Came in with the concern, “my teeth are badly crowded and I’m self-conscious about smiling in front of others” and “my toothbrush can’t reach, so I’m worried about cavities and tartar.” The teeth were crowded enough that other clinics had told the patient “wire braces are needed” or “extraction is needed,” but the patient strongly wanted treatment with a discreet appliance.

Treatment Details
Applied full-arch orthodontic treatment (Comprehensive) with the clear aligner appliance Invisalign. Carried out “lateral expansion,” widening the dental arch starting from the back teeth, to secure space for the teeth to line up without extraction. Moved the teeth, which overlapped in a complex pattern, one by one to untangle them, forming a functional and beautiful U-shaped arch.
Treatment Period / Sessions
Period: about 2 to 2 and a half years Number of visits: once every 1.5 to 2 months
Cost
Total ¥880,000 to ¥1,045,000 (tax included) (breakdown: Invisalign Comprehensive package) *This is a full-arch orthodontic plan, because it includes high-difficulty recovery treatment.
Risks & Side Effects
When moving teeth that overlap, gum recession or a “black triangle” (a gap between two teeth) may occur. Because the treatment period is long, keeping up motivation and strictly keeping to the wear time (at least 20 hours a day) are key to success.
