i will be going to see Dr How at his Maluri Branch later today. I called the clinic at the nurse told me to go over for consultation.

I have actually started my orthodontic treatment in Perak. But it's conventional braces which will take me about 3 years to complete the treatment. The dentist asked me to wear a removable "stop bite" to open my mouth as I have deep bite also (bottom teeth biting lelangit) and with front teeth going outward. I have put this for almost 6 months. and the dentist said I have to extract 4 teeths. total treatment around 3.5k (include xray, molds, braces, extraction...)

it's dam cheap compared to damon 3 but I wish not to have my teeth extracted.

I hope I will have good news from Dr. How. Although the nurse said it's 5.6k but it's much shorter treatment period. 12-14 months...

I will see how it goes after consultation... but need pay a refundable RM50 consultation fee (refundable only if you do treatment there...)

Yeah, went to see dr. How last night at Maluri. My appointment was at 9.15PM but waited till 10PM. Missed Uber cup on starsport... :-(

Well, Dr. How just did a quick check for me, in less than 2 minutes and said although my teeth are nicely aligned but I have too many teeth yet my mouth is small. I have very bad rabbit teeth and when I smile can see the gum. No matter I am taking conventional treatment or Innovation or Daemon 3, I will still need to extract 4 teeth. Uchhhh…

Although Daemon 3 is faster and less pain than conventional orthodontic. But the main objective is to have good end result which make Daemon 3/ innovation more expensive.

If I would go for the treatment it’s RM5600 for Daemon 3 and RM5400 for innovation.

X-ray and mold RM200, extraction will be around RM140 with RM35 each.

And because of my gum issue, I will need to have two screws to screw up my teeth and that will cost another RM700 with RM350 each.

It will cost me RM 6640 for total which is more than double of my initial treatment in Perak. Although just a very short conversation with Dr. How but he’s really a nice dentist. Give very good explanation compared to my dentist in Perak.

I am in the dilemma to decide to take Daemon at How’s Orthodontic or continue my conventional treatment in Perak.

I will go to Perak this weekend and see if the dentist will do anything to my teeth or not. If he said I will still need to wear the bite stop I would probably transfer to How’s Orthodontic. I cannot wait too long d as I am also old now…

If you were me, how will you decide??

Finally I didn't go for How's specialist. Although he's really good. haha, I am the one mentioned to him kent something something.. :-p

I have all my 4 teeth extracted d. will be on braces on june 10. probably will put bite stop also. but man, I am going to cambodia in july. dono what can I eat there... pengsan...

dr. how is good, but it's too pricy for me.

kenny, when u can take off ur braces? mine is nt even put up yet bt i want it to be removed as soon as possible d.

I have 4 holes to close up, dono when will do....

I make milk shake to drink, milk+fruits... hehe, very tasty and filling also.

anyway, I have a mandarin blog talking bout this... www.blog.yam/lovelybao123

do come n support ya~~

I went to a dental clinic in Ayer Tawar, Perak. Total cost: mold + x-ray + extraction + retainer = RM3280.

Will have my braces on June 10th! I already paid some and now left RM 2650.

I'm 24 and I'll have the braces on 10 June. It's better if you have it done earlier. 18 isn't too old.

I can't answer your second question too~
