They wanna charge me RM18K for 1.5 year treatment period.

What say you?

No teeth removal needed.

just get a fucking braces and save RM18k

Sounds like a reasonable price getting treatment at a private clinic.

I paid RM20k + RM500 x 2 (for 2 x screws to be inserted at my upper back row to act as anchors for elastic bands) for a 1.8 year treatment. Had to remove all 4 x wisdom teeth to create space as i was having overcrowding (Each wisdom tooth extraction was RM500 for upper and RM750 for lower).

Pretty happy with the overall results.

Just remember to wear your retainer or your time, effort & money spent will be burnt.

What kind of braces cost 20k??

I'm currently on Invisalign, paid RM20k for it but also comes with 5 years "warranty" so you can basically refine your teeth as much as you like for 5 years.

T20 braces.

Or just a hugely misaligned face

I know retainer is for life, what is the frequency per day requirement? Isit only 8hrs during sleep or 24/7?

It's recommended to wear the retainer for 22 hours a day post removal of your braces to ensure your stubborn teeth don't move around and revert to their original state.

Gradually you will wear it anytime between 8 - 12 hours a day - the most convenient time of the day to do so is during the evening after dinner till you wake up the following morning as wearing the retainer can be a hassle for those with busy day schedule.

Consult your orthodontist. Don't rely or unprofessional/layman hearsay on /k as each patient's treatment is unique.

I know a clinic in damansara perdana can afford it at cheaper.

PM if interested.

Hi ! Im currently using Zenyum. I chose Zenyum because of the price, and also casue quite a few of my friends had pretty good experiences with them. I was previously a metal braces user, but my teeth shifted back slightly so I wanted  to straighten it again!

I would say that Zenyum/Invisalign definitely looks much better in terms of aesthetics. For Zenyum, I didnt have to go back to the clinic often (twice so far), just for the scan and then the fitting which is really convenient because im super lazy hahah

I researched a bit before deciding which brand to go with and Zenyum was the cheaper option. Its about $2.4k for treatment and additional $150 for the inital consultation which consist of a X-ray and 3D scan. I havent finished my treatment so I havent bought the retainers, but i heard its
about $300.

Oh and their customer service is pretty good because you can contact them directly via their Zenyum app. So any issue you can just reach them there. So far my teeth has shifted and i can see the changes (its been only 3 months) so I would say for the price, its a pretty good deal.
