Let's take a look at how Korean idols, who often stand in public, straighten their braces!

  • lingual braces (dentistry)

There are three types of brackets, and the position where the wire is placed and the material of the bracket can be customized to make it less noticeable.

lingual braces (dentistry)

Brackets and wires are attached to the front surfaces of the upper and lower teeth.

It is the most widely applicable and versatile of the wire orthodontic systems, and can be used for mild to severe teeth alignment.

Since the devices are fully visible when smiling, there is concern about the aesthetic aspect during orthodontic treatment, but there are more Korean idols than others who wear front side braces.

V LIVE reported that a screw called an "anchor screw" was implanted in the upper gum.

An anchor screw is a screw-like object used to move teeth efficiently.

The way he muffled his mouth when he was anxious about the anchor screw during V LIVE was a hit with fans, "So cute! and became a topic of conversation among fans.

Why did you change from backside braces to front side braces?

Brackets and wires are placed on the backs of the teeth on both the top and bottom.

Since the device is not visible unless the mouth is opened wide, it seems to be a method often used by idols who stand in public.

half-lingual braces

This method uses backside braces for the upper teeth, which are easily visible when smiling, and front side braces for the lower teeth, which are less visible.

The drawback of backside braces is that the intricately shaped appliances are placed out of sight, making it difficult to brush teeth and take care of the teeth.

However, only half of the braces can be placed on the front side, which allows for aesthetics and ease of care.
