Attention Dentists/Orthodontists! I have a question for you!?

I'm 19, and I really want to get braces (I don't want to be 30 years old with a mouth full of metal..), but as I need to pay for them myself, and I'm already paying for my college tuition among other things, I don't know if I can afford them. Can you give me an estimate of appx. how much you think they cost? Ballpark estimate...I live in Chicago. My mouth doesn't need surgery, I have no overbite, no spaces..they're just a little crooked, so I don't think it's one of those cases where extensive work is needed. So what do you think a something like that could amount to financially? And how long is a mild case generally required to wear braces for? Also, can you give me an estimate on how much you generally charge people for invisalign? And are they happy with that? Thanks

about 3000. in chicago it could be as high as 5000. you'll make about $150 monthly payments though.





don't get invisalign. braces work faster and they're cheaper.
Reply:between 3000-5000 depending on how much movement you will need.





typically they want a percentage down and then you make monthly payments.





there's nothing wrong tho with being 30 and having braces!
