1. Lawrenceville, GA
2. 4,800 not including records fee (300) + all the dental work needed prior/during treatment such as regular cleanings. Prior to the treatment, I had a good deep clean (600), some fill-ins in between the teeth that we discovered as my teeth were separating, my wisdom teeth removed (400) + A BUNCH of extractions. I lost count.. but yeah, I have no insurance... so it costed about 6,000+ out of pocket.
3. metal
4. 2-2.5 years
