Me and my mom went to the nearest Orthodontist and they said the price was about 4600$(No Taxes, No Interest, and this included X Rays and Retainers) that is before Insurance,
And i live in Canada, should i go around look for better or cheaper Orthodontist?
And he kept telling us how hes a professor himself at the local university teaching Orthodontics, and hes been in the profession for about 20 years.
Yeah just some opinions please.

I am getting braces and have questions. Do braces hurt? Do they feel weird? How much do they cost with insurance? How long will they be on if I have a overbite and a slight gap in my teeth? And say how many visits do you take to the orthodontics and does tightening your braces hurt? Also will it pay off?

Here’s the third paragraph….. Could you check it please?
Insurance coverage is not enough to pay for medical attention. A person can be paying her or his insurance mostly; but coverage is not enough to pay for a doctor appointment. In some cases, insurance companies do not want to cover most of the medical attention provided by doctors or hospitals. My mother went to the dentist six months ago to seek treatment for a toothache. After several exams, the doctor discovered that she needed three orthodontics. The final cost for her treatment was calculated to be seven thousand dollars; she did not have the option and went to our country (El Salvador) and received the same treatment for only seven hundred dollars. Is it necessary to go to another country to do this?
I do not want to suggest that they should have to pay for our illnesses, but medical service providers and insurance companies have to be in agreement to provide high quality medical service with affordable costs.

I’m thinking about getting Invisalign in place of traditional braces. I was quoted $7500 total for them.
This is a lot of money and my insurance does not cover orthodontics.
With that said, I expect them to work and work well. I plan on wearing them the required 22 hours out of the day and following all recommendations perfectly.
My questions are for people who have worn Invasalign only, please:
-Are you satisified with your results?
-Was it worth the money?
-If you could do it over, would you opt for traditional braces as they are said to work better.
-Were they painful?

Orthodontics Defined Orthodontics may be the specialty of dentistry that's concerned using the study and treatment of malocclusion (improper bites), which may be a result of tooth irregularity, disproportionate jaw relationships, or both. Orthodontic therapy can focus on dental displacement only, or can deal using the control and modification of facial growth. In the latter case it is better defined as "dentofacial orthopedics". Orthodontic therapy can be carried out for purely aesthetic reasons with regards to improving the general appearance of patients' teeth. Nevertheless, you will find orthodontists who work on reconstructing the whole face rather than focusing exclusively on teeth. Therapy is also frequently prescribed for practical reasons for example providing the patient having a functionally improved bite (occlusion).
