QUOTE(morning06 @ Dec 28 2009, 12:02 AM) hmm... advice needed! i am currently 21 y/o and i have trouble eating coz of my teeth... its not serious but kinda not easy... think i shud go for this braces treatment at this age already? Other than cosmetic reasons, braces also improve your biting/eating. And no, its no too late, in fact, quite a number of people in their 20's do it.

QUOTE(metsatsu @ Dec 28 2009, 01:10 AM) if your teeth are affecting your eating habit in some way, then it's advisable to have orthodontic treatment to correct your bite. and it's perfectly fine to do braces at this age, dont worry  QUOTE(monochrome1234 @ Dec 28 2009, 05:07 PM) Other than cosmetic reasons, braces also improve your biting/eating.

morning06: my mum is 40 plus and she just got her braces few months ago. so don't worry about it. it's best to put in on only when your body growth is stable, i mean, not when growing tooooo rapidly lah. unlike me, i put it on when i was around 12, took it off when i was 17. i think i have not fully grown by then because now teeth shifted, even when i am obedient in putting on my retainers. dentist said it's because of the growing jaw and there is nothing much he can do about it. gotta remove 4 wisdom teeth which is just yesterday to avoid further impacted movements of the teeth. troublesome is all i can say.

At the age of 40 still want to wear braces? It should be so painful! My dad had his braces at the age of 30++.. Tempopary pain, but beautiful smiles last forever! =) I am wearing a braces now (1.5 years), will remove them this May,2010. 5 months to go! =)

I see but roughly how much does it cost to remove ? I was supposed to remove it end of 2008 but I delayed it until now .. my previous doctor went aboard to work. So from then on, I didn't went back to the clinic to seek other doctor and btw, I did mine in University Hospital. Though it was under private clinic in UH, to be honest, I don't quite favor their service. I heard lots and lots of complains during my appointments.. There's always either parents or patients that will complain about the service.. So it's really that bad. Once I was attended by one of the doctor, and she wasn't gentle like my previous doctor Emily. So yeaps, I never want my braces to be removed by them.

hi can any one recommend me a good dental clinic to get my braces done? and BTW what is the Damon system ? for my company, they do cover dental but not for braces, but after checking with my HR they say if you are going to do the braces then get the doctor to bill as crowning or some thing that would lead to that price.
My budget is about rm 3k plus.
can any one please help?
thanks
