wow, I'm so glad i read this thread. My DD's dentist said she may not need any, but she has a gap in her front teeth. (she's ok with getting them). We are going to get an ortho dr's opinion of course I have been trying to figure out how much, and if i should stay in plan, or go out of plan for the orthodontist.
insurance covers $3,000 for life (ortho work..this does not cut into regular dental) if we stay with a DR in plan, it will be cheaper, out of plan covers 90%.
I think we will look at in plan DR's Thank you all for the input
