Clear Aligner Treatment Case
In their 30s. Came in with concerns such as “the crowding in my front teeth stands out” and “my teeth overlap and are hard to brush.” Wanted to straighten their teeth with a discreet appliance, without people around them noticing.
CASE 08
Clear Aligner Treatment
BEFORE
AFTER
- Treatment Details
- Carried out orthodontic treatment using the clear, removable aligner appliance Invisalign. Based on a 3D simulation (ClinCheck), the aligners were exchanged in stages, moving the teeth according to the treatment plan. *Without extraction, space was made with a procedure that very slightly polishes the surface of the teeth (IPR), and the teeth were lined up.
- Treatment Period / Sessions
- About 1 to 2 years Visits: once every 1.5 to 3 months (for follow-up and receiving aligners)
- Cost
- Total ¥880,000 (tax included) (breakdown: Invisalign Standard package). *This package plan has no limit on the number of aligners needed to complete treatment.
- Risks & Side Effects
- If the wear time (at least 20 hours a day) is not kept to, the teeth will not move as planned. Right after starting treatment, or when switching to a new aligner, you may feel a tightening pain in the teeth. After treatment ends, there is a risk of relapse if a retainer is not used.
