HELP! Red,white & blue questions...

#1 Post by Seraiah13 »

Hi i heard about this new systrem and read great reviews on them only by doctors although. The thing is I cannot seem to find out a price for them or a doctor who can get them for me! I has braces as a kid and now my teeth have minimal spaces. I know this would be perfect for me as I am a single mother who is poor and cannot afford braces again. Please help! I live 45 mins from San fran near Vacaville ,Ca thanks :)

I can understand your situation, but a qualified orthodontist must make the decision about what sort of treatment you need. You may like the idea of the RWB system (and indeed it may be the right thing for you), but you have to get a consult first to see if it would accomplish what needs to be done.

If you can't afford full ortho treatment, there may be a dental school near you that can do your treatment for a reduced cost. Have you looked into that?

The other thing I would recommend is to contact the makers of RWB to see if they have a list if participating orthos in your area. Here is the home page for AOA Labs (a division of Sybron), which makes the device:

Their phone number is: 800-262-5221

Best of luck!

That website was awesome. Can't wait for tomorrow, I think I start the RWB as well as my metal braces then.
