Protruding Teeth & Open Bite
with Invisalign
in Busan
📍 Busanjin-gu, Seomyeon | ✨ Invisalign Specialist | 🌐 English OK
CS Dental Hospital in Busan Seomyeon treats protruding teeth (돌출입) and open bite (개방교합) with Invisalign clear aligners, supervised by a board-certified orthodontist. Both conditions involve the anterior teeth — either angled too far forward, or failing to contact when the back teeth close. Invisalign's controlled aligner mechanics can address both within a single comprehensive treatment plan.

Protruding Teeth & Open Bite — How Invisalign Corrects Both
Protruding teeth (돌출입) occur when the upper and/or lower front teeth are angled forward — creating a convex lip profile, difficulty fully closing the mouth, and functional bite problems. Open bite (개방교합) occurs when back teeth are closed but front teeth do not make contact — often related to tongue habits, skeletal development, or prolonged habits like thumb-sucking. Both conditions affect the anterior dental region and can occur independently or together.
Invisalign treats protruding teeth by retracting the front teeth through carefully planned aligner sequences — using attachments (small tooth-coloured composite anchors) to generate precise bodily tooth movement, not just tipping. Open bite closure is achieved through a combination of anterior intrusion (moving front teeth vertically) and posterior extrusion control, managed with the aligner's bite ramp features and case-specific auxiliaries.
Protruding Teeth (돌출입) — Invisalign Mechanics
Invisalign can retract front teeth effectively in cases where protrusion is primarily dental (tooth-angulation driven) rather than skeletal (jaw position driven). For significant skeletal protrusion, combined extraction and Invisalign may be required — your orthodontist assesses this at consultation. CS Dental's Invisalign Comprehensive package handles extraction cases.
Open Bite (개방교합) — Invisalign Mechanics
Anterior open bite is one of the conditions where Invisalign has shown significant clinical improvement over traditional braces in recent studies — the aligner's full-coverage design allows controlled intrusion of posterior teeth, which is difficult to achieve with brackets and wires. Tongue habit correction is addressed alongside aligner treatment where relevant.
How Invisalign Treats This Condition at CS Dental Busan
Treatment mechanics vary by condition. CS Dental's orthodontist plans the appropriate aligner sequence and auxiliaries for your specific case.
Protruding Teeth Correction
Retraction Mechanics · AttachmentsFront teeth retracted using planned aligner sequences with precision attachments. Extraction cases managed with Invisalign Comprehensive — creates space for effective retraction.
- Anterior retraction with attachments
- Extraction cases accepted
- Facial profile improvement
- Comprehensive package required
Open Bite Closure
Anterior Intrusion · Bite RampsAnterior open bite closed through controlled vertical tooth movement. Invisalign's bite ramps prevent posterior over-closure during treatment. Posterior extrusion managed throughout.
- Bite ramp feature used
- Anterior intrusion mechanics
- Posterior extrusion controlled
- Strong evidence base for open bite
Combined Cases
Protrusion + Open BiteWhere protruding teeth and open bite coexist, a single comprehensive Invisalign treatment plan addresses both simultaneously — coordinating retraction and vertical correction as an integrated sequence.
- Single treatment plan
- Retraction + vertical correction
- Coordinated mechanics
- Orthodontist-supervised throughout
Your Invisalign Journey at CS Dental Busan
From ClinCheck simulation to final retainer — specialist supervised.
Full Diagnostic Assessment
X-rays, bite analysis, TMJ evaluation. Protrusion degree and open bite severity mapped. Extraction need assessed. ClinCheck simulation produced.
ClinCheck Treatment Simulation
Digital preview shows retraction and open bite closure sequence. Patient reviews and approves projected outcome before aligner fabrication.
Active Aligner Treatment
Aligners worn 22 hrs/day. Attachments placed on teeth for precision movement. Check-ups every 6–8 weeks. Open bite closure and retraction progress monitored.
Refinements & Retention
Refinement aligners if final fine-tuning needed. Retainer fitted — open bite cases require robust retention as anterior open bite has relapse tendency.
Are You a Good Candidate for Invisalign Treatment?
✓ Good Candidates
- Adults with dental protrusion (tooth-angulation driven, not severe skeletal)
- Patients with anterior open bite without severe skeletal jaw discrepancy
- International patients wanting clear aligner treatment for these conditions in Busan
- Patients who want to see ClinCheck simulation before committing to treatment
ⓘ Important Considerations
- Severe skeletal protrusion requiring significant extraction and bodily root movement may have more predictable results with traditional braces
- Skeletal open bite with significant vertical jaw discrepancy may require combined surgical treatment
- Tongue habit causing open bite must be addressed alongside aligner treatment to prevent relapse
