Thanks tomatonz ^^
In fact I have changed 2 dentists.. Not to say I'm fussy or particular but with expectation. It is about health. I'm observant especially small little tiny things, probably due to my job nature gua..
The reason I'm hesitating between to see a dentist or an orthodontist is due to the experience that I had with the 2 dentists.
First one I met, she did explain to me but I can feel that she's money oriented than patient oriented especially when she smiles (ya...I want your money.. that kind of grin). Ya la, I understand everything also about money. Then she asked me whether I plan to do braces, I answered yes. She checked on my teeth alignment, etc then on the day itself did X-ray and molding.. Not even fixed me yet to see the orthodontist.
The second one, the korek fossil dentist. I told her that I understand that I need to remove the premolar and wisdom tooth that can not be diselamatkan anymore and put on braces since the front overlapping tooth causing so much trouble and my lower case got another overlapping tooth also. Then she answered me - hmm.. this one.. you have to make an appointment with another in house dentist to decide whether to do root canal treatment, crowning or bridge. I was like  shocking.gif What another in house dentist? How many dentist I have to see in the same clinic? You are not dentist meh? What are the fields within your expert? Doing filling only?? I told her about braces then she gave me another answer. Beh tahan.. I did filling two times under her also I ended up my shirt wet geh.. Really wet one ar... Water from my mouth flows to my back. One big patch damp on my back!
Since they are qualified dentist or orthodontist, I don't care which uni they graduated, coz I trust their professionalism.
But sometimes...It is saddening to let me see so many tiny little things which ended up as FLAWS in them.
I hope.. Dr How would give me a better impression and his professionalism end of this month.. Never looking forward to see a dentist/ orthodontist but now I'm looking forward to see him. Hahahha..

No worry on all your previous issue. Dr. How have good facility, they have another suction pipe place inside your mouth to suck away all the water, so you will feel comfort during the filling.

Few days ago, i just went to Dr. klinik due to one of retainer broken when I try to remove it on morning. Dr. How is not around, so, attended by Raymond. He is another nice guy and patient to explain what and how he going to do. He is expert on filling, as i have a small gap on side, caused the food always stuck. He said he has confident to resolve it with remove out my old filling and remove with the "teeth color" type of filling and it done perfectly.

Bear in mind, not every dentist can do braces. The persons who help patient install braces must study the orthodontic and get certified. However, there is some dentist may just study but didn't able to pass the certified exam, still perform the work. This is the risky to the patient. Some still not enough experience, as this kind of work need a lot of case study and experience. I trust Dr. How because he been did more than thousand patient and many year experience. Besides that, during my conversation with him, his study result always on top score. Nowaday, he is busy not only in malaysia. Some other country also invite him to provide workshop and training, etc.

I believe this is why he bring in Raymond. I don't have much info about him but i am happy the way he did on my last visit.

Yah, I agree that Dr. Raymond is a patient and gentle doctor. The last time he fixed my loosen bracket, I don't feel any pain at all.

^^thank you kentcp
Saw your pics in previous post, I would say, he has done a very good work on you.
If Dr How is someone who has expectation on his work, he would do the same when choosing Dr Raymond.. Means arr.. This Dr Raymond must have met his standard.
Comparing to yours (before the treatment) and now I'm looking at the mirror, mine is not very severe, just the alignment lari, front teeth not in the centre and slightly overlapping the neighbour.. don't know where they planned to go also rclxub.gif My gigi also weird weird dei.. I heard people usually have 4 wisdom tooth but mine.. only 3.. Cari in the X-ray also don't have..
I don't mind if the following work is going to be done by Dr Raymond coz at least Dr How has convinced me in the first place and someone is good (on par to his standard) will be doing the followup work. tongue.gif
THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT!!

Rest assured with Raymond's capabilites. Had scaling done by him couple of days ago. Quick & clean, not to mention courteous explanation on condition of my teeth & braces. Well, just got 2 huge ulcers, caused by grinding of braces. Arrghh!
