Orthodontic treatment straightens teeth and corrects bite problems using braces or clear aligners. A 3D scan lets you preview your expected result before treatment begins, and your plan and cost are explained in writing up front.
Orthodontics moves teeth into better positions and corrects how your bite meets. Adults make up a large share of orthodontic patients — there's no age at which it stops being possible, as long as your gums and the bone around your teeth are healthy.
If you have untreated gum disease or active decay, that's treated first — moving teeth through inflamed gums makes things worse, not better.
Removable, close to invisible, and easy to clean around. They depend on you wearing them for the hours prescribed each day, and not every movement can be done with them.
Brackets and wire, in metal or tooth-coloured. They don't rely on wear time and handle more complex movements.
Treatment planned around existing crowns, implants, and restorations — which is what usually makes an adult case different from a teenager's.
Teeth drift back without retention. Retainers aren't an optional extra at the end; they're part of the treatment.
X-rays and a digital scan of your teeth, so the plan is based on your jaw and bite rather than on how the teeth look from the front.
We go through what's causing the crowding or the bite problem, and where treatment can realistically get to.
Aligners or braces, how long it should take, how often you'll come in, and the cost — in writing, in English.
Regular short appointments to change aligners or adjust the wire, with the plan reviewed as your teeth move.
Retainers are fitted and their use explained. This is the part that decides whether the result holds.
Orthodontic planning here is led by our director, a certified Invisalign provider with orthodontic training in addition to her specialist board certification.

These are the items that make up an estimate for orthodontics.
We don't publish a price we can't stand behind. Your figure is confirmed in writing after the 3D scan and examination, itemised so you can compare it.
Sometimes — it depends on what has to move. We can tell you after the scan and X-rays which of the two suits your case, and we'll explain why rather than just recommending one.
No. What matters is the health of your gums and the bone supporting your teeth, not your age. If there's gum disease it's treated first, and the orthodontic plan works around any crowns or implants you already have.
It varies widely with the distance the teeth must travel and whether the bite is being corrected as well. We give you an expected range after taking records — and we'd rather give you an honest range than a short number.
Yes. Teeth drift back if nothing holds them, and relapse is the most common reason people end up in treatment a second time. Retention is planned as part of your treatment, not added as an afterthought.
Yes. Your diagnosis, your options, the expected timeline and the cost are explained in English, and you get the estimate in writing.

I did clear aligner treatment at Seoul Lab Dental Clinic in Uijeongbu, and the results are amazing. My teeth look so much better now, the price was very reasonable, and the whole process was comfortable and professional. Highly recommend!
I would recommend this dental clinic for foreigners living in the Uijeongbu city area. The English dentist is available three days a week. The treatment is communicated well and very comfortable. Dental costs are also communicated clearly especially for those who don't have additional dental insurance.
Several of the doctors speak English. I have visited the clinic twice, and on both occasions, they did not recommend any unnecessary treatments. They also clearly explained the cost before proceeding with any treatment, without me having to ask. The reception staff are also very easy to communicate with via KakaoTalk.
I visited because I had doubts about a diagnosis from another hospital claiming that root canal treatment was absolutely necessary, and I would have regretted not coming here. I was truly grateful for the honest explanation that the examination results showed the condition wasn't that serious. They explained everything thoroughly and step-by-step, and above all, I feel confident because there was absolutely no overtreatment. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an honest dental clinic!
