I thought of extracting my wisdom teeth which are visible and the other half part embedded in the gum. So I guess that should be painful. Another big problem that I need to face is the pain effect after the extraction. I know that there will be medicine i.e antibiotics and painkillers given to ease the pain. But I am intolerant to painkillers, in another word, I am allergic to it? Do you guys have this problem?

try www.livingwell.com.my
they have invisible braces

i did braces before when i was about Form 3 to form 5 at government clinic. n ya the doc kind of sucks.if i noe earlier i would have opted for another doc since there r two orthodontics at the clinic. my fren did at the same place under another doc n till now her teeth looks sooo nice. dang...

oh ya. i didnt remove any tooth at all (because i was soo scared of losing good tooth last time) n the doctor actualy was ok with it! my gosh..i mean i was so noob last time n i tot if i din pull out any tooth it would be ok for me. eventually i have kind of straight teeth..but only for a while. then one of my tooth (that was actually behind some other tooth) gradually went shift back (almost to its normal position) and now i cant even be bothered to go back to do braces already.

n when im wearing my retainer half way, my gums kind of got unhealthy..n the dentist told me stop wearing it n took it back already.thats when the tooth start moving back. i don think i want to go through all the pain n misery of wearing braces anymore...i think im just contented with my teeth now...i think taking real good care of my teeth is what i opt to do...

so to TS and everyone else..do a good survey first around to find out the best orthodontics around..n i think if i had the chance to turn back time, i would have begged my parents to bring me to a private one...

anyway good luck

yalo....
I'm over 18 and still doing bracers with the government...
I'm doing my bracers in UKM here and the results not bad....
It just cost me abt RM3k for the top and bottom teeth...
U no need to pay RM3k one shot...
U just need to pay RM1.5k for the first month and RM100 for the following month...

Can anybody give the lowest price for standard braces at private clinic. And can pregnant women wear braces???

i kindda have da same problem with u, last time i go for university clinic, they said it just a minor and they wont do minor case.. but then they suggest to go to private clinic for the braces (bottom only) and it may cost around 1.5k

if wearing only retainer will do, then i think im also intrested with it..

yup..
after read this malaysian doctor advice,i confirm
http://drleen.wordpress.com/2007/04/24/men...pa-doktor-gigi/

u read each cases..haha so long
n end up with many cases quite similar with our problem
but they wan to improve the arrangement of the whole line of their teeth
but my problem is just one tooth haha
but still wan to upgrade

dr leen works at klinik pergigian tiew,in puchong perdana got one
got 2 other branch as well

according to whud i read,
if only 1 tooth no need braces cuz its damn xpensive weyy
retainers will do
got other way,wearing 1 type of thing i dunno the name
but she said dawai cabut cabut haha
that one is cheaper that retainers..can take out evritym wan to eat
dats y she said dawai can cabut cabut haha

got another way,wearing removable appliance..
dun noe how much the cost

and the other one is cabut 1 tooth n do bridge..this one i dun noe the condition..

but the best way is retainers n the cheaper one the removable dawai thingy

but i want to noe the cost

im wearing braces now, my dentist at kepong there, she's quite professional, expensive too thou ==

usually if one tooth is out of place, retainers will do.

are you still a student in a gov school? It's much cheaper to make the retainers/bracers from a gov clinic.

i had mine frm the dental clinic in Cahaya Suria building right in the middle of KL opposite Menara Maybank for RM100 (private clinic would've cost RM3k!!).

But that was nearly 20 yrs ago la lol.

i'm 18
do u tink gov clinic can make it for me?

i heard that gov clinic dun want to treat all minor case..
they will ask to go private

btw how much is the retainers?
for one only not a pair

goverment clinic wun help minor case d..i went there before...and the doctor say..u case vy minor...
then i go private...
suprisingly is not painful like i tot it would be...the doctor is vy pro

pumpkin88: May I know which clinic? Is it in KL?

Am curious is it possible not to make the teeth line up too "perfect"? Coz it looks good but not natural at all. I know it won't be good to their reputation but...

Also do we really need to remove few tooth in order to line them up nicely?

Hi everyone. I'm wearing braces but I'm not satisfy with my teeth. Ever since I put on this braces, I find that my jaws have been aligned into so cacat!
The doctor says for my case, I only need to wear braces for 3 - 5 months. But now it drags to nearly 2 years because I skipped my appointment day. But then again, I notice the doctor delayed my treatment in a way that sometimes my appointment is just for cleaning the braces + teeth but at times, is just for checking my teeth and that's it. I did not question her much as she seems to have a lot of patient and she doesn't have much patience with people. I would say my current doctor doesn't allow me to remove my braces just yet. So I'll try not to remind her about what she told me about the removal of my braces after 3 - 5 months as promised.

Now I've decided to remove my braces else where. So does anyone know where can go about to remove my braces? and what are the charges like?

preferably Subang area, or where do you guys suggest?


thanks in advance!

got my teeth braces about 5years ago...cost about 2k++ oni

I'm also having same problem with you. I'd already wearing braces for 3 years and my doctor still doing adjustment for my teeth.

But I'm having difficulty to clean my teeth well even with Ortho and inter dental toothbrush. My lower front teeth had became shorter (in order to have same height with other teeth) causing the braces approaching my gum. It is hard to brush that area and this could easily cause bleeding. Braces has also caused odor in my mouth. Although the overall of my teeth had improve a lot, but I wonder why lower part of my molar teeth (attached with braces 'ring') become 'senget'. I try to ask for removal of braces but my doctor also didn't allow to.

I was also thinking of remove braces at somewhere else but I heard that dentist are not allow to accept patient (to remove braces) who are under orthodontic service from other dentist.

How much it cost for Invisalign bracers? will it cost more than Lingual Braces (Hidden behind teeth)? Any dentist near PJ area which offer a reasonable price? pls pm me.. thanks

haha there's a thread for teeth brace ya?

I'm also wearing teeth brace, for a year now... had 4 teeth extracted too, but i feel the upper 2 teeth shouldn't be extracted coz i feel there were enough space... Now there's still these 2 big gap up there... Are these gaps really will be filled up eventually? the doc got ask me to put on the elastic as well, but for months, i feel the gaps are still the same....

and during last appointment, the doc put something like a 'stopper' behind some of the teeth... now my teeth can't bite fully, really make eating difficult....
