this is random.

but i really miss wearing my braces.

i had braces done when i was younger but not in kl.

and braces should only be done by orthodontist not dentist.

it'll cost a lot but you really want it to have it done well. i know pretty good orthodontist where i'm from but it'll easily cost you arnd 4-7k.

good luck looking for one though.

Any recommend in PJ area? Feel like doing it, but the cost is so expensive..

Im 20yrs old.. Still wondering want to do it anot.. If i do, i dont tink my parents will pay..

Have u try government dental?
I dun think PJ area can get cheap 1 lor..

Do you to try mine? at Kuchai Lama, RM3.8k for metal braces exc teeth extraction, scaling, etc.
Is a lady dentist but her face always 'black' and din tell u not much on the details.

You have to trust her, her skill is not bad just her response very weird.

Heard that Kepong got a dental only charges rm2.8.
Anyway, all these are offer installment, should you no need take a one lump sum out.

For those in Penang, I'm currently undergoing the bracers treatment at Penang Dental. The orthodentist is Mr Lim. Quite good, friendly and professional. Only cost me RM3k

I'm doing government one. My teeth really... . Diagonal everywhere. I already pulled out 4 teeth and will go and tie them up on the 19th of Nov.

I had to wait around 2 years. But it is only RM 700 instead of a few k.

In klang, government braces need to pay RM200 only

me, from penang wearing braces abt 6mths dy, pay by instalment. my braces cost rm4.3k

That is like, freaking expensive! 3.8k also VERY exp liao, private the lowest I saw is 2.5k, klang.

u noe y?? because im 25++ liao

cost is raise according to age???

yeah as far as i noe...

when u r getting older

soreness++

pay++

OMai. BUt the cost shouldn't increase unless your teeth really need a really really long time to straighten it up..

For those who have had dental braces how long it took you??? Let's share...

for me 1 yr 4months.
major abit for the jaw to draw back inside.
teeth arrangement not so serious very little overlapping.


u guys?

1 year - 7years (severe)

Yes. My aunt did it when she was 18, did it for 7 years cuz her case is a severe one.

I did my braces in late Form 1 (2006) and it was removed in early Form 3 (2008). I opted for the Damon System 'Self-Ligating' braces.

http://www.damonbraces.com/

It costed nearly RM5,000, but my dad's company paid half of it under medical expenses.. or something like that.

7yrs!
thats alot.
including adjusting jaw?
can tell more on why needing so much time?

Damon System.. so impressed!
May i know which dental do provide Damon System in Klang Valley??

I have did the conventional brace fro about 3 months and din see any movement.. \
If this Damon System is works for me, i would like to try it out..

Please give me the details. Thx
