Clear Aligner Treatment Case
In their 20s. Came in with the chief complaint of “my front teeth are tilted” and “my lower teeth are crowded.” Examination showed a deep bite, where the upper front teeth cover the lower front teeth too deeply, and improvement was needed not only in appearance but also in bite function.
CASE 09
Clear Aligner Treatment
BEFORE
AFTER
- Treatment Details
- Carried out full-arch orthodontic treatment with Invisalign. Made use of the aligner's properties to intrude the front teeth (moving them further into the bone) while adjusting the bite to the right height. By correcting the deep bite, reduced the strain on the jaw joint and achieved a beautiful E-line (side profile).
- Treatment Period / Sessions
- Period: about 2 to 3 years Visits: once every 1.5 to 3 months
- Cost
- Total ¥1,012,000 (tax included) (breakdown: Invisalign Premium package). *A high-difficulty full-arch orthodontic plan that includes improving bite function.
- Risks & Side Effects
- Root resorption (the root of the tooth becoming shorter) may occur. Because the bite changes, you may feel temporary jaw fatigue or discomfort during treatment. As this is a difficult case, the treatment period may take longer than usual.
