  You should be looking for an orthodontist, though your regular dentist may recommend one.

  Yea, orthondonist. Thats the term i was refering to, but used dentist to make it simpler.
  
  Tried some of the neighbourhood ones as suggested and the cheapest so far is one in Bishan ($3200 for a package).
  
  I am aware tt there are instalment plans, but juz trying to ask ard in hope of getting the best deal.
  
  Those with braces experiences can recommend specific professionals tt fits my budget? Thanks.

  I will be putting my braces soon probably by mid July. I"m seeing this dentist at Isetan Scotts. Hmm the package is abit expensive thought at about S$4K but I'm extremely comfortable with my orthodontist. She's very patient and very professional highly recommended by my colleague cos herself and her cousins all got their braces done up by her too
  
  Basically down payment is at S$1.5K and the subsequent will be S$100 every month when you visit her to tighten the braces

  hmm it depends also, some people have buck teeth not because of the teeth but because of the jaw alignment and stuff so the best is to ask your cousin to go and consult a orthodontist before deciding what to do.
  
  Surgery is for those who have problems with their jaw alignment
