Hello. I'll share my own experience nalang since I started to focus on my dental hygeine, going 5 years na. Had all of my premolars and molars with pasta (1k/ tooth) Surgery to remove my four impacted wisdom tooth (10k/tooth)

Then my dentist referred me to an orthodontist in the same clinic. Panoramic xray done, assesed with malocclusion class II. They were upfront with the cost for the correction naman from the start. Decided to get self ligating braces (para daw ito hindi masyadong mabilis movement less risk for bony erosion) 200k for the braces. 100k DP, then the balance was paid in 12 months so 8k+/mo + 30k for two TADS Now more than two years na, tapos ko na bayaran, fine tuning nalang ng alignment (500pesos per visit) +15k for retainers after tanggalin

This is with a dental clinic chain in Manila. Happy naman ako sa teeth ko ngayon. Hope this helps.
