tee hee, can't wait to wear braces. currently still saving until enough money

btw, you guys pay lump sum or visit-by-visit? But still need to pay half or some money first right? Usually how many %?

For my case,

1st time visit payment is RM 970 for
• RM 750 deposit
• RM 200 – 2 X-ray, mold & photo

2nd visit payment is RM750 plus misc (auto/manual tooth bush, toothpaste, etc – depend on what you buy; suggest u buy at Mid valley, watson or guardian for toothbrush more cheaper - RM7.50/pcs only)
• RM 750 deposit
• RM ??? –misc cost
• They will install braces on this visit and ask you to sign contract agreement.

3rd visit onwards is installment plan..

well, it depends on the clinic... different clinic, different rate...

mine was (I thought I posted this b4?? )

1st payment: RM700
2nd payment: RM700

The balance of the fee is divided into 14 payments. Mine is about RM3++ per month.

Note that this is for the treatment ONLY.

Other things like: orthodontics' brush, and other stuff is charged separately.

i think it was quite expensive for me cos jus upper...not full...n da dentist was my bro's client!!no discount as well!!!!!
SO i hope dat da result wil make me feel worth of it la....haha

wow.. need extract teeth ? do u know what system/brand?

hi, someone please help me with this.
I am to go for an international flight next week.
My concern is whether my braces in my mouth will alert the alarm system during the checking in .
You know, the one where we have to put our bags in the belt scanning system, then we have to go through the scanning door.
Will the metals from my braces makes the alarm sound?

Someone who has gone for flights when they are wearing braces please help me with this !! or google ? I dont know what to type in the google search >.<

Hi rainbow84,

I just went to Penang on last 2 weeks by flight. Yes, when i pass through the scanner door, the alarm is trigger. I am not sure if it is due to my brace. However, no need to worry. Just let the security to check your body by raise up your hand to 90 degree. They will using hand to rub you hand, body and leg to make sure no weapon tight on your body.

By the way, you are lady, choose the door stand with female security. Anyhow, when the alarm is trigger, if they see you are lady, the guy security should ask female security to check your body. They (guy) don't dare to touch you. You also should let them (guy) to touch/check your body. So, you have no worry ya

Enjoy your trip on next week

for my case i jus need to extract 1 teeth only....jus normal ortho lo...no system/brand la i think...haha






i went to s'pore las year...n duno hv any problem when pass da door....so i think da braces wont alert da alarm la...dun worry

Ohh thanks both for your reply.
Im just a bit worried cos i will be bringing two laptops in my bagpack. If i were to trigger the alarm, i will have to stand by the side while my bag is left unattended. Have heard many stories of people losing their bags while being checked by the security.
But guess i might be worrying too much

opps, my bad, didn't read thoroughly (>.<)

so basically 1st and 2nd visit need to pay around 1k. I guess few months more to go until I save enough money!

wish me luck

No worry.. we are here to support you.. Good luck


By the way, my bite stop already removed on this tuesday !! Yeah !!

But my teeth still weak, long time didn't bite.. now still can't bite hard food..

So happy without bite stop next Friday I can go to Redang island for a week without worry la..
