Mine was many many years ago and paid by instalment (interest
free). Abt $3k+. Some more have to go for follow up
check up every 3wks - 1mth, cost $90 every visit! That time,
I felt so heartpain$$. There are Pros & Cons doing
braces.
Pros - Keep your teeth straighten, healthy gums & looks nice
when you smile. If you have chubby cheek face, then gaurantee
you will slim down your face & even body! Cos you have to
watch your diet & no solid food is advisable when putting on
braces.
Cons - Some people may look sulken on their face & hard to
gain back weight. For those who have narrow, slim face, you
will look even skinny & sharp on your face shape. But if you
don't mind having sharp & slightly change of your face shape
then alright.
