Braces in Los Angeles

Orthodontists in Los Angeles California

I have retainers. I didnt wear them or didnt wear them enough. My tooth on bottom shifted forward. Now when I put my bottom retainers in, takes longer to put them in properly. I am probably just going to wait till monday and call ortho. I put retainers in, they hurt when I put them in, and take them out. Should I try to wear them for the next three days, or deal with pain and wear them? The pain hurts enough to take tolenol.

i heard hawley is the best

He said if I want my teeth to stay straight that I should wear my retainers every night for the rest of my life. They hurt like KRAZY I’ve had them since last year and they STILL hurt. What should I do?

I lost my retainers and uhhhhh I wanna know if they will make a new mold of my teeth or if they kept the old one. Pretty much, yeah. Help me please.

I want to know whether retainers cost is included in the ortho treatment. My ortho said he will charge $450 for retainers after the treatment.
and also I want to know if we go to an ortho do they take x rays for free there itself or do we have to go out and pay money which is not included in the treatment.
My ortho said it costs Approximately $200 to get all the xrays done since he doesn’t have that facility. And only one time you have to get x rays. He said in some cases 2 times. Is that true?

i have metal braces on now and they come off in july and i was wondering if i could get invisalign retainers instead of the metal retainers? Would my ortho dentist let me do that? is it worth getting invisalign retainers or metal?

I am not sure my orthodontist offers them, My next visit is not for a long time!

Vivera cost $400 more than regular invisalign aligners… reason being that the regular one supposedly cracks, get stained and/or get lost so you’ll get 4 sets with Vivera. How often does clear retainers break or stain?

I know you need retainers after braces, but is it different for Invisalign? I heard that because Invisalign is removable, your teeth are still able to support themselves, so you don’t need retainers. Is that true?

I have moved from england to america and now i need to take off my braces. I want to know the fee for taking off the braces for my top teeth(i don’t have braces on the bottom row of y teeth) and getting the retainer.
