Braces in Los Angeles

Orthodontists in Los Angeles California

What do they do? My other dentist noticed I had an under-bite and said braces could fix it, but my teeth are naturally straight, the only problem is my under-bite. I’ve never been to an orthodontist before so what do they do? Do take clean your teeth, take pictures, etc?

Hi im getting braces soon i went to the dentist today and they said i need braces so im going to the orthodontist soon i was wondering how long will it be between when i first go there and get everything done and when i actually get the braces put on.

a third party credit place, who would check my w2′s. I’m in college and I have no credit and the money I make is under the table working construction or random day jobs. They said I could get invisalign express( $2500), I would like to pay half right away then the rest over the next few months…do any places do this without a third party or am I wasting my time?

I had braces for 11 months about 3 years ago. But I didn’t really wear my retainer :{ and now they are a little shifted. So if I was going to get braces a second time how much would they cost?! half price or full price?

For instance if one goes out with friends to a club/bar – do you really have to take the aligners out before you drink and then brush thereafter? If one drink throughs a straw – surely your teeth and aligners don’t get affected or?

Like the orthodontist puts your braces on, tells you you need them for a specific amount of time (example. 2 years, 1 1/2, etc.) and then tooken them off earlier?
thanks!

Last night I felt a pop in my mouth and when I felt in there, my top-left bracket was loose, came right off my tooth. A half hour later the bracket itself fell off and the wire is all that’s left and it’s been jabbing my cheek all night. It’s 7:30 now and the office opens at 9. How is this going to work?

My tooth are only a little crooked but i could use some kind of straightening device. How much more expensive is invisalign? Does it take a lot longer than conventional braces?

Also when you have a tightening what happens?
