1. Johannesburg, South Africa
2. Braces cost R34500(ZAR) which includes retainers and initial consult (that is $2631 give or take), I also pay an extra R60($4) for each visit which is instrument sterilization and glove costs
3. Full metal upper and lowers
4. Estimated 18 Months but I am willing to keep them on till I'm 100% happy with the results

Pretty penny but worth it so far.
