Q. I�m supposed to begin Invisalign the first week of January. I was quoted a price of $4,800 for fourteen months of treatment and am just wondering if this sounds right. Between college, getting my wisdom teeth removed, Christmas and New Years, I really don�t have time to visit different dentists to compare prices. As well, even if I do go for a �free consultation� from another dentist, chances are he or she will want to do x-rays and possibly take a mold of my mouth to see if I qualify for the procedure, which will not be free. Furthermore, I don�t want to go to another dentist and tell him or her my current dentist has approved me for the treatment, as I want an unbiased quote� not one that simply �beats� the one I�ve been given. Thank you in advance.
A. We are not in the business of beating another dentist's quotes. We set fees based on our own office expenses and so on. I do Invisalign fro less, but I'm half an hour south of Exit 2. If a case was going to take 14 months - which is NOT determined by the dentist, by the way - I think I'd charge about $3,600-4,000, depending on how much IPR was required or how many attachments were needed.
Does anyone know ANY affordable dental insurance or affordable/reasonable dentists in San Antonio TX?
Q. Hi im looking for an affordable, dental insurance because it seems as though every where i look i can't get help because i'm not considered "needy". And most health insurances have huge monthly payments without really any coverage. I think i need to get my wisdom teeth pulled and i have several cavities so if anyone can give any information on good dental coverage or even reasonable dentists' prices in san antonio, TX it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much in advance.
A. I would encourage you to visit this website.

I signed up with them online over 3 years ago for all my dentistry work without age limits for almost the same reason as you. They have helped me save thousands of dollars from extractions, root canals, cleanings. I know for a fact that all services are included especially orthodontics and dentures in the benefits. They had my membership active in 2 hours and was able to use the same day. I am very thankful that I found them. Im almost %99.9 certain that your area is covered. Check to see if they are in your area.
Good Luck. Hope this helps

What should i say to my dentist to reduce the price of my braces?
Q. well, i'm wearing only normal, top braces and it costs me rm2500. My friend wears a removable braces and it only costs her rm500! What should i tell my dentist to reduce the price?
A. The price of orthodontics varies more by the severity of each case than the type of braces you have. If your friend has "removable braces" I'm assuming you're talking about invisalign... chances are her teeth issues are not as severe as yours. Not having seen either one of your teeth I don't know if that's actually true, but its a strong possibility.
In general the average cost of braces ranges from $3000-$7000 and higher. If you truly feel that you're being over charged you can talk to your orthodontist but it sounds like a fair price.
