i thought so too..i even made an online appointment for the Cheras one, but i received a call from Dr. How's staff and was told that the one at Taman Maluri, Cheras has been closed since March

so i told the lady that i'm gonna need some time to think first and if i decided that i want to meet Dr How, then i'll make a new appointment later

i think once a month going bangsar from cheras should be okay.
where exactly in bangsar? near ktm station?

Dr.how dental beside bangsar village shopping centre..near bangsar LRT but a distance if u walk.

Two questions please.

I click can't see the photo. I remembered I used to be able to view it. I have login though.

2. How did you get the picture/photo? You asked Dr How for it after treatment?

Thanks again.

Will brace on next week.Dr. How said I need to extract 4 teeth.gg

1. You have to refer to my original post #1920 to see the photos.

2. I asked for the photos from the staffs.

Added on December 7, 2010, 12:02 amFor my case, xray+mould+photos cost around RM300++, forgot the exact amount. Need to do the same thing before and after treatment, which mean RM300++ x 2. I think you might exceed 6.5k a bit. First set of retainer is FOC, included in the treatment cost. I was told that subsequent replacement of retainer (if required) costs around RM250 for Dr. How's in-house patients.

X-ray and molding rm330(x2 before and after as u said).confirm rm750,after brace rm750.left rm4500/14 = rm320 per month.extraction normal teeth rm40each(x4).

add other extra stuffs n transport fee total almost rm7k.

jealous you, think for it long time already, havent take my 1st step...

Yay! I am going for bonding tomorrow and will officially be a bracerian! Wish me luck!

I decide whole year alrdy.regret should brace earlier..u faster take ur step too la.

Just curious, are you getting the regular metal braces, hence the need to extract 4 teeth? I was informed to extract 2 teeth by another ortho. Then was informed no need to do so when decided to go for self litigating types.

Nope,I choose damon..dr. How said my teeth too crowded.need extraction for more space.but wear braces 1st for a period oly extract.

I think it depends on individual. If the teeth is too crowded, extraction is required even for self-ligating braces. For my case, I went to 3 other orthos before I went to Dr. How. They said I need to extract 2 or 4 teeth. Finally, I went to Dr. How and he told me that my case doesn't require extraction.

Wa,u are so lucky..Dr. How want my 4 teeth.
