I just completed my dental impression using a different material yesterday to send to the lab for creating a tray. My treatment plan requires 30 tray within 13 months in order to make a planned retraction. The first tray shall arrive approximately 10 days from today. Quite excited, apart from the fact that I will lost 4 teeth soon.

It should be no problem to go for Invasalign in my case, just the major different between Invasalign and conventional braces are mostly (i) cost required and (ii) slightly longer time because it purely depend on patient's adherence to wear it while conventional braces is fixed on your teeth.


Also may I know the courses of your information regarding these aspects? Is it from working experiences or reading; because I might need your kind advise from time to time now. 13 months is not a short period of time

Hi,

I was wondering, how much would Invasalign cost. I was a metal braces wearer during my high school days and after years of diligence and pain, i did the stupidest thing every braces-wear should never do - which is to neglect wearing the retainer and when it broke, i didnt get it replaced.

Some time ago, i noticed my teeth moved again =_= so much for wearing braces before! and i'm actually thinking of getting invasalign. All i know it's expensive, but how expensive is expensive? Can someone also recommend me where i should go to get invasalign?

Thanks!

unfortunately my knowledge on Invisalign is very limited to journal publications only.

but I can always consult my other colleagues who are into this product if you ever need any.

just be disciplined and put them on according to the schedule and all will be well!

From my survey, it widely range starting from RM 13,000 and up to RM 25,000 for complete treatment plan.

Please do correct if I am wrong.

Yes, Invisalign is relatively VERY new compared to its previous procedures. Its quite hard to find a second opinion to strengthen my trust that it will be okay to try it since most of the reviews are well enough to make one to try; internationally speaking .

I will create a new dedicate thread soon after receiving my first tray soon, and let me know if any of your colleague study/know well about this ya!

Going to do ceramic braces , doc offer me the brand is 3m. Any different between 3m and Damon ?

wow! that's really expensive!!!

thanks for the info

May I noe which clinic? Could u provide me their information? I would like to do oso

Ahhh my Invisalign was canceled. The company is currently overwhelmed with order and they decided to NOT providing all my 30 trays altogether but 5-10 trays in few months, which is very risky since the treatment plan is very expensive and anything could happened before receiving all the trays; thus my orthodontist decided to cancel the order and I choose simple metallic braces as an alternative.

Now currently wearing a rubber separator in both lower back teeth. Feeling quite a discomfort....

any recommended cheap prvt clinic for braces?

and what is the price.

thanks in adv.

The price of conventional metal braces depends a lot on the location of the clinic and also the condition of your teeth. Do not be afraid to go for a consultation at the clinic most convenient to you to get a quotation on the price.

Just to give an idea, I know of some clinics in Subang which charges up to RM6k ++ for metal braces with monthly tightening whereas some clinics in Klang only charges half of that with tightening/ check up every 2 or 3 weeks.

how much is corrective jaw surgery costing now? My lower teeth comes out more than the upper teeth(Class III Malocclusion) . My orthodontist from UMSC quoted about 40k for the whole procedure including braces. what about GH or some other government hospitals ?

I heard some use that but its not working though..

so u wanna go for it?... i think still expensive though

Hi all,

Any good orthodontist to recommend for Damon Braces in KL/Selangor area? Appreciate your reply. Thanks.

I've heard of Dr Wong in Sri Petaling but I am not too sure whether he is an orthodontist or not. Any one?

Just extracted 1 out of 4 tooth. Damn scary because my tooth root is quite long

Now I'd ask my friend to give me IM painkiller before crashing to bed. This gonna be a long, painful week.

I'm having damon braces at Whitesmile,berjaya times square. Last time i ask the price is rm 6.4 k(metal).

ahha, 90% of my patients with regular extractions do not even get PCM.

Not even PCM? Wow, impressive. Maybe it have a difference between extracting a diseased tooth with healthy tooth?

It had been 36 hours since the extraction, yet the pain is still here. Is it normal? I'd had a bad fever too yesterday, could be due to change in season.

Hi Rina,

How's your braces so far. Is the doctor good?

Thanks.
