Case Description
We are moving to the twin cities in January (yikes!) from Africa and my 10year old daughter just got braces. Are we going to have any problem finding an orthodontist who will provide follow-up care--adjustments, etc.--without charging us a huge amount of money to presumably make up for not making money from the initial installation, x-rays, etc.? Any orthodontist willing to help? We will have dental insurance when we get to the USA. Thanks!!

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.
