Hi guys , I'm not sure whether you're still active on this thread but it'll be a great help if you can answer my enquiries.

I'm a 19 years old medical student in Ipoh from Sepang, Selangor and wish to get braces. Preferably I would like to get it from the government hospital or clinics but I'm not sure whether above 17yo can get it or not. And I'm not sure around Ipoh where can I go to government clinic or whether HRPB provides braces service or not.

Is it possible I were to get it in PPUKM? Is it true the government braces service is only available for children under 17yo? I don't mind the long waiting list but I do would like to know how long do I have to wait.

Thanks a lot for your help.
