I need an Orthodontist

[Savage]

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a reputed Orthodontist for adults in Singapore. Also, whats the rough price range for the whole treatment and those fancy clear braces?

The only one I know is at Raffles Hospital at Bugis...the estimate they gave me over the phone was upto S$5000 for the treatment which seems kinda high (I was expecting something in the S$3000-4000 range), but I guess I will get a more detailed estimate when I have my consultation with them in a couple of weeks.

Try Mandarin Hotel Shopping Arcade, the 3rd floor. THink its called Lien or something. Orthodontist name is Dr Lien

Dr. Lien at the Mandarin Hotel on Orchard is very recommendable. Prices for what you want, you will have to find out, but as a doctor in his trade, I can recommend.

My wife has her braces done by Dr Koh CH at Paragon. She is excellent.

I have some question to ask. For unsightly spaces between teeth, it is recommended for Porcelain Veneers or braces?

Hi..im 26 and i jus had my braces removed early this year...i would recommend my orthodontist Dr Ivan Lim fr SGH dental centre..i didnt noe he was a well known specialist till i was reading a dental magazine at my neighbourhood's dental clinc n realised, hey!! tats my dentist..at that time i was still contemplating whther or not to proceed...ok the reason y im recommendin him is cus he noes wat hes doing...u see, i wore braces when i was younger at 12...but then i stopped wearing my retainers n my wisdom teeth grew out, my teeth started to warp again..quite badly actually..i was desperate so i consultated a private specialist..he did not dare do braces for me because fr my previous braces treatment, i had 4 mollars taken out n its quite risky to take out too many mollars so he asked me to refer to SGH agn where i previously was fr..so wen dr ivan lim looked at teeth, n my bg, he straight away knew what to do...he used my old wisdom teeth as a mollar replacement and took out 2 of my upper healthy mollars which at 1st i thot he was crazy, and even the dentist pulling out my teeth didnt undnerstd..but within 3 mths after putitng on the braces, my teeth adjusted n my wisdom teeth move frontwards acting like a mollar...this is complicating, but u see, he noes what he was doing n he had no doubts..another clever thg he did was instead of removing another 2 of my lower mollars, he cut off edges of my teeth so that he cud create gaps for my teeth to move...hes good..i know cus ive worn braces like 2 times in my life..and another thg, u need to have 4 mollars taken out (2 on top n 2 below in order for ur teeth 2 have space to adjust)...i didnt feel a thg wen i got my teeth extracted n i was so bloody scared.. plus d dentist who pulled out my teeth was cute hahaha

I recently went to Dr Lim Wee Sang from Pinnacle Dentist Group at Ocean Building, Collyer Quay.

She is very gentle and friendly. Maybe can try calling her clinic at 6 532 0282.
