Re: 1st Adjustment with pics

Okie last two questions I promise :oops: 1. Do you need a referral letter from your regular dentist in order to get the braces or it doesn't matter? 2. So you have to take your x rays, mold, etc and cost you around $500, including the consultation right? Thanks again. Cost is definitely an issue. I ...

Re: 1st Adjustment with pics

By the way, did he extract the premolar or you had to go to your regular dentist? Was it painful?

Also, he does the X rays and everything in the same office?

Thanks again!

Re: 1st Adjustment with pics

Hi nikki! Thanks for replying, your teeth are looking great!. A couple of people recommended Dr. Harper because he seems to be the most affordable one (is it Oliver or his brother, because I know the father used to be an ortho but I believe he is quite old now). A few questions if you do not mind an...

Re: Extraction Orthodontic Nightmare

When we are talking about extractions and the dangers, etc are we including wisdom teeth as well? Because I am very confident I need mine removed before putting braces and I am concerned now.

Re: Would invisalign be able to rotate an upper lateral inci

I have a similar problem with my two upper lateral incisors, I am considering traditional braces. I suppose depending on the severity of the problem insalign might work but I am not sure.

Hello there. I live in a tiny island in the Caribbean (Trinidad). I am considering getting braces, I am not so afraid about the pain associated with the braces but what I am afraid of is that I will have to remove my wisdom teeth and I am sure that hurts a whole lot. On top of that I have gum diseas...

Re: 1st Adjustment with pics

Hi Nikki! I just registered because I did a google search about braces in Trinidad and I found your story. I am thinking about getting braces, I live in Trinidad too and they are so expensive and the prices so different! The price you put in one of the threads seem reasonable. Could you please tell ...
