Braces: Q&A

Do I Qualify for Braces?

I want to know if I need braces, my lateral incisors are pushed outwards, and my 4 bottom teeth are pretty crooked too. I've been to the orthadonics twice. They told me my insurance doesn't qualify for my teeth. I also have some crowding in my teeth and both my wisdom teeth.

Do I need braces?

No one HAS to have braces...As far as I know, nobody has ever died from crooked teeth! It all depends on what you want and what you can afford...Medicaid only covers the worst of the worst problems
