I am trying to decide whether to sign up for Aetna’s PPO or their DMO plan. More specifically, I want to know which plan is better for orthodontics (braces). Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I am moving next year but I wish to get my braces now. How will the payment work and can they tighten and remove my braces?

Okay, so i have braces at the moment. I have to have them on for 2 and a half more years. I dont exactly know what the stains from braces look like, but i have a phobia of them.
I brush my teeth once a day (i know, its horrible, but i have noo time..or i just forget…) and i drink and eat everything that im not supposed to. How can i prevent the stains on my teeth? Is there like, mouthwash or something? Thanks in Advance.

I was told to get those, but I wanted the normal metal ones so I could be that much closer to build a bionic masterpiece.

I need braces very badly. I currently have coverage through my insurance that will cover $1,500 of my $5,700 total cost, leaving me to pay the remainder.
Is there better insurance I can get? Or is this a pretty good amount they are paying? $4,200 out of pocket for braces is just something that I can’t really afford as a working college student. I know I can make payments, but still, thats $175 a month over a 2 year period. I just don’t know if I can afford it. I’m already working full time while going to school full time and am trying to save up for a car so I don’t have to ride my bike all the time or take the bus.
Is this average? Do you have any information about orthodontics and insurance you could give me?

I’m getting braces (train tracks) tomorrow at 2pm and i was wondering how long it would take to get them fitted. Like will it take really long ?

Invisalign is like a retainer. Does any body know what kind of insurance you will need to get them?
I live in Florida if that helps..
Thanks,

To fix some of my teeth I need a spring retainer which my orthodontist said would cost $400 +. So, I contacted an Orthodontics lab and the woman said she could take my impressions and make a custom spring retainer for $85 but she doesn’t usually take people in. I don’t have a prescription for a retainer from a dentist. So, basically I am going straight to where my orthodontist would get the retainer from. She has been working with orthodontists for 15 years so I trust she knows what she is doing but should I be worried that I am getting a retainer from a lab?

So, What should I expect?
Do I have to bring anything important?
What do they do?
I just need some info because I go for the first time next Tuesday
