Hi all. I have an issue here on braces. Anyone knows which dentist/orthodontist accept patient from other dentist? Which is not so expensive too? I really need to change dentist.. :'(

As I am having a bad experience with my current dentist. My teeth was not slanted before I had braces and during the first year of having braces. Later on, I found my teeth slanted on the top and I've talked to my dentist on this issue, but she seems to refuse to care about my feeling and said it was like this all the time. No matter what I said, she just dont seem to be responsible.

My teeth wasn't really that bad before I had braces, only overlap on top and not so straight at the bottom. No extraction needed for my case too. As time passed, the 3rd year, she removed my braces, and I found overbite, on my right teeth up and bottom. My teeth are slanted, not straight at the bottom, both upper and lower going outwards.. So I talked to her about this issue, and at first, she asked me to repay the price.. which I keep nagging and complaint. Then only she asked me to pay a few hundreds to redo (Replacing a new bracket for me).. and after a year its still the same thing.. Nothing much changes. The worst part is, when I visit every month, I dont feel any tighten. No wire change. Sometimes she dont even change my rubber band! I have talked to her that I am not satisfied with the result a couple of times, but she do nothing about it. And she somehow do show me like ''boh song'' and impatient attitude. After that onwards, whenever I told her that my teeth here like this can help me.. she jumped in cut my words.. She will keep tell me "slowly one by one, do part by part'' its been a year!! Now my teeth is still the same like going outward.. for 3 years.. still she refused to push my teeth a lil inwards.. Reason that she told me it is normal.. I really don't know what is wrong with my dentist now.. I am entering my 5th year of braces.. I feel so tired and disappointed.. I want to change to another dentist but I do not wish to repay the whole braces cost.. I just want a good dentist to adjust my teeth..

Please advise.. :'(

Hi Nicky! Thank you for your suggestion! Yes, I heard of Whitesmile before. But it's quite far from my place if were to visit monthly. And I heard Whitesmile is quite expensive.. I hope to find one near Subang, or Damansara which the dentist is okay.. My teeth just need someone who is good enough to adjust..

Thanks! I've checked around, most of them do not accept continue treatment, but if I wanted to do braces at their place, they will charge the starting price which I have to pay the overall again. While some do accept, but true that is quite expensive that they charge not only per visit for doctor fees, but also the things that they change..

Berjaya Time Square area is too far from my place.. But I agreed that we only have one set of teeth.. I found one that accept continue treatment, which cost around RM150-250 per visit. But at the end of the treatment, moulding and retainer need to pay seperately.. Which makes me feels so regret of choosing my current dentist earlier.

Does Lim Dental have different branches? I have called one Lim Dental, not sure if thats the one you mentioned, they do not accept continue treatment from others unless I start over.. Really regretted. Lesson learned, need to survey and make sure the dentist is really good before decide doing. Thanks anyway Daniel!
