i went for gahmen wan, at National Dental Center at Outram. cheaper than private wans, for my case i had to remove 2 lower teeth behind my canines before i can wear braces. but the dentist can be quite rough with my teeth- just wack oni!
had a nice & orderly looking set of teeth after about 24 months. i think he's not that skillful, maybe novice? 1 teeth kenna kok*, all very pain.
after 4 years never put retainers, my teeth not so neat & orderly. i hope u are not into any sports where the chances of injury is high. if not teeth in danger.
well, i am always worried for the worst lah. all the "wad ifs"...
that 2 years include plucking out 2 front teeth + 2 wisdom tooth + 2 year braces about $4000+. can't remember the exact price.
& 2 year no kissing gf. mua-haa...
