Case Description
I had braces 5th through 7th grade. I have been wearing a retainer on and off since--I am now 26--but some of my back teeth have shifted in, crowding my front teeth so that they are no longer perfectly straight. I am told the one thing a retainer cannot do is turn a tooth (one of my front teetch is turned slightly inward). It is recommended that I get full braces for 6 months on top and bottom. I am wondering how much this should cost if the braces are clear. I already have dental records/x-rays. Thank you

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.
