Here are 8 things to check before you start, whichever clinic you choose, and how we handle each one at Qualiteeth Cheras Balakong.

The 8 things to check
- Who plans and adjusts your braces
- A proper assessment before any price
- The full cost, in writing, before you start
- A choice of braces types
- Real results from that clinic’s own patients
- Location and opening hours you can keep up with
- A clear plan for retainers after braces
- Registered dentists and good hygiene standards
1. Who plans and adjusts your braces
Ask who will examine you, plan your treatment and do your monthly adjustments, and whether you will usually see the same dentist. Ask how complex cases are handled and when a case would be referred to a specialist.
At Qualiteeth Cheras: braces are planned and adjusted by our dentists, including Dr Phoon Li Wen, Dr Chong Sin Ying and Dr Foo Voon Hoo. They are supported by an in-house restorative dentistry specialist and visiting specialists for cases that need extra input. Meet our dentists.
2. A proper assessment before any price
A responsible quote comes after an examination, not over the phone. Braces planning usually needs a check of your teeth and bite, X-rays, photos and impressions or a scan. Be careful with a fixed price given before anyone has looked at your teeth.
3. The full cost, in writing, before you start
Braces prices are often quoted differently. Ask exactly what is included:
- the braces and fitting
- monthly adjustments and how many are included
- repairs if a bracket comes loose
- removing the braces
- retainers after treatment
At Qualiteeth: braces start from RM4,000 and clear aligners from RM7,999. Your dentist explains the full cost, including adjustments and retainers, before you decide, and you can ask the branch about payment options. See braces prices.
4. A choice of braces types
| Type | Good for | Starting price |
|---|---|---|
| Metal braces | Most cases, the most affordable option | From RM4,000 |
| Ceramic braces | Teens and adults who want braces that are less noticeable | Quoted after consultation |
| Self-ligating braces | People who want fewer elastic ties and easier cleaning | Quoted after consultation |
| Clear aligners | Mild to moderate cases; you must wear them about 22 hours a day | From RM7,999 |
A clinic that offers several types can recommend what suits your teeth, not only what it happens to offer.
5. Real results from that clinic’s own patients
Ask to see before-and-after photos of the clinic’s own patients, not stock images. Results vary from person to person, so use them to understand what is possible, not as a promise.

6. Location and opening hours you can keep up with
You will visit about once a month for 18 months or more, so a clinic near home or work, with hours that fit your week, makes a real difference. Missed adjustments can make treatment take longer.
Qualiteeth Cheras Balakong is near Batu 9, Bandar Mahkota Cheras and Balakong, and is open every day from 9am to 7pm, including weekends. If you live nearer Seri Kembangan, our Olive Hill branch is another option, and you can continue treatment at any of our 15 branches if you move.
7. A clear plan for retainers
Teeth tend to move back after braces, so retainers are part of the treatment, not an extra. Ask what type of retainer you will get, how long you need to wear it, and whether it is included in the price.
8. Registered dentists and good hygiene standards
In Malaysia, dentists must be registered with the Malaysian Dental Council, and you can ask the clinic about this. Look for a clean, organised clinic with properly sterilised instruments, and staff who are happy to answer your questions.
Warning signs to watch out for
- Promises that the result is certain or risk-free
- A very low headline price that leaves out adjustments or retainers
- Pressure to pay a deposit on the day of your first visit
- Starting braces without X-rays or a proper examination
