  Hi all! I heard about FFI and am quite curious about it. What actually happens before, during and after FFI? I also heard something about the wisdom tooth with 2 weeks mc? Can anyone enlighten me thanks!

  "FFI during CMPB is to record your teeth health before you are enlisted

  FFI during ORD is the check that your teeth is 100% as it is before you are enlisted.

  This is to ensure that you cannot claim that SAF have destroyed your teeth" said by my dental colleagues during NS. 

  If the dentist is kind enough he will ask you to fix your tooth for free during your NS. 

   

  Some people grow wisdom teeth at this age, causing pain and agony. So they have to pull them out. And thus they are given MC. Thats' all.
