I'm still on my braces for 2 yrs and it cost me about RM 5k sad.gif
First payment is about RM 1-2k and next subsequent payments are about RM 200/month during the monthly checkups.

This is my 2nd braces and kinda regret cuz last time i had it when i was too young. Then when my wisdom came out, it began to mis-align again sad.gif

i wore my braces 4 years ago,2 years on braces,2 years on retainers (actually i can take off my retainers after half year but lazy go find dentist)..for braces one total cost is around 5k to 6k..adding the retainer cost it will be around 6k+..and i'm wearing a fake tooth now..lost my front tooth during form 2 cry.gif cry.gif

for braces,first week dam pain la..u will nvr be able to imagine how fast ulcers can grown on yr lips..and their quantity can keep u off food for a weeks!its like for every single metal equipped,there's a corresponding ulcer..the 'climax' i got is around 15 ulcers on my lips and inner cheek..tat pain is really killing cry.gif ..but after a month..ulcer wont grow so many anymore..maybe once every few months? tat bcoz yr body adjusted to it ady ma..and u learned how to take care of yr braces..

as for the monthly check,the day after checking and tightening sure pain la.after tat day (some few hours)..feel like nothing ady..
the feeling after u remove yr braces..is like WOW. u cant stop licking yr newly polished smoothy teeth!
