Q: Cost of braces
asked by: PixieKat on March 12th, 2008

So when i was younger i had braces, When i got them taken off they asked if i wanted a permint retainer or the removable one, I wanted a removable one because my friends tould me the permint one was annoying. I didnt know that your teeth would actualy start moving back to where they were if you didnt wear it, they didnt explain that to well to me lol i thought theyd move but not alot.

So my questions is i on my lower left jaw i have a tooth right next to my canine on the right side of it and its back behind all the other teeth so i want to get braces again to fix that. all my other teeth are still pretty streight besides that one, Could anyone give me a rugh estimate about how much it would be to fix that? I know theres not much you can do with out seeing it, but i was just currious because i dont have much money with paying for rent and school lol. And its pretty noticable and annoying to me, i wish i would of warn my retainer because now it wont even go in.

Thanks

it depends on how much movement is needed because some minors movements could be acheive with removable retainer movement occurs in a longer time than with braces ,that is why braces are the best option , the braces prices changes between states and between dentist ,orthodontist are specialist so the will charge more than general dentists (not all general dentist put braces only some of them have the courses) so you need to visit doctors in your area and "shopping" for braces to get a cost effective one
good luck
