Key takeaways
If you are looking for an orthodontic dental clinic in Michuhol-gu (미추홀구), start with the places where orthodontic information can actually be verified. 바른이치과교정과치과의원 (Bareuni Orthodontic Dental Clinic) is registered as an orthodontic clinic and has 929 Naver reviews; visitor reviews mention wearing braces and being in treatment. 연세플란트치과의원 주안 (Yonsei Implant Dental Clinic Juan) has 341 Naver reviews and 452 Kakao reviews, and its reviews mention orthodontic consultations for children and for parents. However, the number of dental specialists is not confirmed for either clinic in the data provided, so you should ask directly about the treating dentist's orthodontic qualifications and scope of care at the consultation.
The five selected clinics have an average Kakao Map rating of 4.6. This is the average across all five and should be kept separate from individual clinic ratings. In the provided data, the only Kakao rating that could be confirmed is 4.6 for 주안시카고치과의원 (Juan Chicago Dental Clinic); ratings for the other clinics were not confirmed. So rather than judging orthodontic results or quality of care by review counts alone, look at the consultation content, the diagnostic process and the retention and maintenance terms together.
If you are visiting from abroad, the key point about Michuhol-gu (미추홀구) is that language support varies by clinic and is not recorded in the public data used here, so confirm it by phone or through the clinic's booking page before you travel. Bring your passport or alien registration card, a list of any medications you take, and copies of previous X-rays or treatment records. All five clinics list reservations as available, but the booking channel and any interpretation arrangements are not specified, so ask how they prefer to be contacted.
How we compared
We collected and compared 3,013 Naver Place visitor reviews and 2,118 Kakao Map reviews, 5,131 in total. We also checked Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) registry data. Each clinic profile lists the Naver, Kakao and Google review counts and ratings provided, the address, public transport access, opening hours and amenities. The total review counts below are the sum of Naver and Kakao reviews; blog reviews and Google reviews are not included. Where a rating or a specialist count was not in the data, we marked it "Not available". Quotes are taken from the visitor reviews provided, with emojis and decorative characters removed.
SNC시카고치과의원 (SNC Chicago Dental Clinic)
601 Naver reviews and 473 Kakao reviews, with a Google rating given as 4.3. No separate Kakao rating was confirmed, and the number of dental specialists under HIRA criteria is also unavailable. No data was provided on whether the clinic offers orthodontic treatment or has an orthodontic specialist on staff, so if you are seeking braces, ask about orthodontic availability and who would be in charge before you book. Reviews repeatedly mention detailed and kind explanations.
The staff are all kind and explain everything in detail. I moved here and this was my first dental visit; I plan to keep coming here. (야니구미, November 6, 2026)
They are the most thorough and kind clinic around Inha University's main gate. I also like that Inha University students get a discount. (Kk03, November 2, 2026)
The address is 인천 미추홀구 독배로 311 비젼프라자 302호, 104 m from Exit 2 of 인하대역 (Inha University Station) on the Suin–Bundang Line. Opening hours are Sunday and Saturday 09:30–14:00, Monday and Tuesday 10:00–21:00, and Wednesday, Thursday and Friday 10:00–18:30. Lunch hours were not provided, so check before you visit. The listing notes reservations, walk-in reception, Wi-Fi, a waiting area, a children's playroom and parking. A website, blog and Instagram are also provided. The Inha University student discount comes from a review only, so it is worth confirming eligibility and conditions with the clinic. Check which weekdays have evening hours, how booking works and whether parking is available. Orthodontic fees, treatment duration and retainer costs are clinic-specific details not covered by the data, so they need a separate consultation.
바른이치과교정과치과의원 (Bareuni Orthodontic Dental Clinic)
929 Naver reviews, 567 blog reviews and 1 Google review were provided, with 0 Kakao reviews. No rating was confirmed, and there is no HIRA dental specialist count. The clinic name includes orthodontics (교정과), and visitor reviews mention wearing braces and continuing treatment, so it is worth checking for anyone considering an orthodontic consultation. Reviews alone cannot tell you about treatment methods or outcomes, though.
I am wearing the appliance and it keeps getting better. I hope it continues to improve. (연탄보니, October 27, 2026)
I have been in orthodontic treatment for a year. All the dentists are always kind and see me quickly, which I appreciate. (유현정22, October 27, 2026)
The address is 인천 미추홀구 구월로 32-1 선빌딩 3층, 177 m from Exit 2 of 석바위시장역 (Seokbawi Market Station) on Incheon Line 2. Opening hours are Monday, Tuesday and Friday 11:00–19:00, Wednesday 11:00–20:00, and Saturday 10:00–14:00. The hours provided contain no information for Sunday or Thursday. Lunch hours are not listed separately, so confirm by phone. Reservations and parking are listed as amenities. Reviews also mention long-term visits and friendly staff. At the consultation, ask about available appointment times, the dentist responsible for orthodontics and the diagnostic process, the cost of each type of appliance, and the terms for retainers and regular check-ups. Wednesday is listed with evening hours, but it is best to ask in advance whether same-day appointments are possible.
365서울앞선치과의원 (365 Seoul Apseon Dental Clinic)
685 Naver reviews and 1,059 Kakao reviews, a combined 1,744 across the two platforms. A Google rating of 5 was provided, but the Google review count is listed as 0, so the rating alone is hard to interpret as user assessment. The individual Kakao rating and the HIRA dental specialist count are unavailable. The reviews provided mainly cover scaling, wisdom tooth extraction and implant consultations, and no orthodontic treatment information was confirmed.
The staff are kind and the director in charge is very kind too. (amb****, November 7, 2026)
I am usually nervous about dental visits, but the dentists were kind, the treatment did not hurt, and it was finished quickly and thoroughly. I plan to come back for treatment and regular check-ups. (mm****, November 3, 2026)

If your goal is orthodontic treatment, ask first whether orthodontics is offered, who would be in charge, and what the diagnostic and treatment plan would be, and it is practical to get the costs and maintenance terms in writing as well. A website and blog address are provided.
주안시카고치과의원 (Juan Chicago Dental Clinic)
457 Naver reviews and 134 Kakao reviews, with a Kakao rating of 4.6. The review counts including Naver can be confirmed, but the Google review count is given as 0. The HIRA registry lists one specialist in integrative dentistry, and orthodontics (치과교정과) is included among the treatment departments. The registry also lists one CBCT unit. However, the data contains no details of specific orthodontic appliances or the dentist in charge, so these need to be confirmed at the consultation.
It had been a while since I visited a dentist, and everything from check-in to treatment went smoothly. They checked my teeth thoroughly and explained the treatment I needed in an easy way. (베베8989, November 2, 2026)
I came in the evening after work and the wait was shorter than I expected, which was good. They looked closely at my teeth and explained only what was needed in a way that was easy to understand, so it was a comfortable visit. (sia839, October 31, 2026)
The address is 인천 미추홀구 미추홀대로 610 현대메디컬프라자 5층 501~505호, 798 m from Exit 2 of 시민공원역 (Citizens Park Station) on Incheon Line 2. Opening hours are Sunday and Saturday 09:30–14:00, Monday and Tuesday 10:00–21:00, and Wednesday, Thursday and Friday 10:00–18:30. Lunch hours are not in the provided data.

If you are considering a Monday or Tuesday evening visit, check booking, the reception cut-off time and how parking works. The fact that orthodontics is included among the treatment departments is confirmed, but at an orthodontic consultation you should ask individually about the scope of examinations, the treatment plan and expected duration, and the cost and retainer terms.
연세플란트치과의원 주안 (Yonsei Implant Dental Clinic Juan)
341 Naver reviews and 452 Kakao reviews, 793 in total. A Google rating of 3.2 was provided, but the Google review count is listed as 0, and there is no Naver or Kakao rating information. The HIRA dental specialist count was not confirmed. Visitor reviews include orthodontic consultations for children and for parents, so you can look at examples of orthodontic consultations. Individual review experiences are personal cases, however, and cannot be treated as information that guarantees treatment results.
I visited for a consultation about orthodontic treatment and dentures for my parents, and I was grateful that the director explained everything kindly in a way suited to their age group. The clinic is spacious and well organised, so it was comfortable throughout. (Kongzi, November 3, 2026)
I visited for orthodontic treatment for my 7-year-old, and the kind consultation convinced me to go ahead. I was also grateful that the staff treated us like family during the X-ray and CT scans. (라 일 라, November 2, 2026)

If you are considering orthodontic consultations for a child or an adult, it is worth asking at the consultation about diagnosis by growth stage or age, the types of examination, treatment duration and cost, and the scope of retainer care. Website, blog and Instagram addresses are provided.

Checklist for choosing an orthodontic clinic
- Whether orthodontics is offered — first confirm that the clinic provides the orthodontic consultation and treatment you want.
- Information on the treating dentist — check directly who will be in charge and what their orthodontic qualifications and scope of care are. Where the data has no specialist count, you can ask the clinic or check HIRA information.
- Diagnosis and examinations — ask what examinations and records the treatment plan is based on.
- Types of appliance — ask about the options available, such as metal, ceramic, lingual and clear aligners, and which suits your case.
- Total cost — check whether there are separate costs for examinations, monthly visits and retainers on top of the appliance fee.
- Expected treatment period — accepting that it differs by individual, ask about the expected duration and the possibility of plan changes during treatment.
- Maintenance plan — confirm the type of retainer, how long it must be worn, the check-up schedule and the cost.
- Scheduling and access — look at evening and weekend hours, the reception cut-off time, the distance from the station exit and parking conditions.
- Booking and questions during treatment — ask how to change an appointment, who to contact if an appliance causes discomfort, and whether an English-speaking staff member handles calls or consultations.
Reference prices as of 2026 are 3.5–6 million KRW for metal braces, 5–8 million KRW for ceramic, 8–15 million KRW for lingual braces and 4–9 million KRW for clear aligners. A typical reference period is 18–30 months, and retainer costs are often billed separately. These are reference figures from the provided data and do not represent any clinic's actual price or your own treatment period.
Warning signs to watch for
- The treatment plan and costs are explained unclearly — if it is hard to confirm the total amount, extra costs and retainer costs, ask for an itemised explanation.
- The clinic rushes into treatment without explaining examinations and diagnosis — ask what records the plan was based on and what the alternatives are.
- The clinic promises a fixed period or result — treatment duration and outcomes can vary with individual diagnosis, so ask about the basis and the variables.
- Aftercare guidance is missing — confirm retainers, the check-up schedule and how to get in touch if a problem arises.
Frequently asked questions
When choosing an orthodontic clinic in Michuhol-gu, should I just pick the one with the most reviews?
Review counts are only one indicator of how much user experience exists; they do not guarantee treatment results or suitability for orthodontic care. Compare whether orthodontics is offered, who the treating dentist is, the treatment plan and the maintenance terms together.
Which clinics in this data have confirmed orthodontic information?
바른이치과교정과치과의원 (Bareuni Orthodontic Dental Clinic) has reviews mentioning wearing braces and being in treatment, and 주안시카고치과의원 (Juan Chicago Dental Clinic) lists orthodontics among its HIRA-registered treatment departments. Reviews for 연세플란트치과의원 주안 (Yonsei Implant Dental Clinic Juan) mention orthodontic consultations for children and parents. The actual scope of care and the dentist in charge must be confirmed with the clinic.
How much does orthodontic treatment cost in Michuhol-gu?
The reference prices provided for 2026 are 3.5–6 million KRW for metal braces, 5–8 million KRW for ceramic, 8–15 million KRW for lingual braces and 4–9 million KRW for clear aligners. These are not clinic-specific quotes, and extra costs such as examinations and retainers may apply, so confirm the total cost at the consultation.
How long does orthodontic treatment usually take?
The reference period provided is usually 18–30 months. The actual duration can vary with individual diagnosis and the course of treatment, so ask at the consultation about the expected period and the factors that could change it.
Can I get an English-speaking consultation at these Michuhol-gu clinics?
The data used here does not confirm English-speaking staff, interpreters or an international patient desk at any of the five clinics. Call the clinic or check its booking page and ask directly whether an English-speaking dentist or coordinator is available, and whether the treatment plan and cost estimate can be provided in writing in English. SNC시카고치과의원 (SNC Chicago Dental Clinic), 365서울앞선치과의원 (365 Seoul Apseon Dental Clinic) and 연세플란트치과의원 주안 (Yonsei Implant Dental Clinic Juan) list a website, blog or Instagram where contact details can be checked first.
What should I check by phone before visiting?
It helps to confirm whether an orthodontic consultation is possible, how bookings are made, lunch hours and the reception cut-off time, which days the clinic is open, and whether parking is available. For operating details not covered by the data for each clinic, ask by phone or through the clinic's official channels.
Final thoughts
When comparing orthodontic clinics in Michuhol-gu, you can confirm that 바른이치과교정과치과의원 (Bareuni Orthodontic Dental Clinic) has reviews describing ongoing orthodontic treatment and 929 Naver reviews, and that 주안시카고치과의원 (Juan Chicago Dental Clinic) lists orthodontics among its HIRA-registered treatment departments. 연세플란트치과의원 주안 (Yonsei Implant Dental Clinic Juan) has reviews describing orthodontic consultations.
