Where to get good and reasonable price for teeth braces

[kitty2]

You can try Family Dental 64533993 - it's at Ang Mo Kio. Charges were reasonable the last time I went (some years back), but it's very crowded (probably cos the charges were not expensive; the reason I've stopped going is cos of the wait time).

May i know Family Dental is in which Blk?

Thanks

what is the difference between govt and pte dr charges? are they the same or poles apart? if govet cheaper, then 3-5 mths wait is ok i presume?? :?

I used to wear braces when I was young.


I agreed that price is one consideration but quality of it also impt.I went to three different ordo, first two doctor even finished doing it, but the result was not good, so I ended up going for the third, redo everything, wasted time and effort that I spent in the first two ordo…But with the third ordo, price higher, qulity better…

Not sure, is the situation still like that for braces making…

Just one cent of my thought.

wow...like dat wasted $ and time. I used to go govt doc, and I must admit the quality is not gd, in fact, now I think i need to go back and do again.


What I last heard was govt dr are not that cheaper??

Ya, waste money and time and the pain that I have gone thr…

Look for a reliable Ordon is very impt.

My girl will be making her braces probably year end.

I guess for govt, adjustment may take longer time.

Hi Kitty,


Family Dental Surgery is at Blk 302 Ang Mo Kio Ave 3 #01-1836 Singapore 560302. You can try walking from AMK central - about 10-15mins I recall.

Dentist is a very nice guy, but do call in advance. I’m sure they will be able to give you an estimate how much it will cost.

my DD and DS did the braces this yr in Feb.

DD extracted 4 teeth(2 teeth each visit), DS extracted 2 teeth.
After extraction, there is this metal \"band\" needed to be inserted around the 4 molars.Bands has to be done within one to two weeks of teeth extraction to prevent movement of teeth, if not the mould done earlier will not be accurate. Basically, from tooth extraction to band, have to see the doc weekly, then follow by monthly visit to do adjustment.

So far, DD & DS are used to mthly adjustments (mouth a bit sore for a day or two).

Estimated Dental charges is S$3600 (excludes extractions)

Just to add on, the clinic opens on evenings as well...which is good for us working adults.

And for time consuming procedures (I had my implants done there), the dentist even schedules appointments on Saturdays or Sundays so that he has undivided attention on you.

I would say his charges are rather competitive too.

My son had his braces put on in overseas 4 months ago and now that he is back, i have to look for an orthodontics to continue the treatment. I had enquire my nearby clinic and the girl quoted me a $300 transfer fee charges and also other miscellaneous charges. Before I decide whether to take up his service or not, I have to pay this consultation fee of $85. Appreciate very much if anyone can advise me the cost and also any reliable orthodontics in choa chu kang area. Thank you very much.
