Question:
Can i do my brace (teeth) in the philippines, and do the follow up adjustments here in US?
Answers:
The above answer is correct! Most orthodontists will not be willing to take you as their patient without you signing a contract that will state their total price of treatment.
If you brought the full x-rays that must be current, and molds -- then you might be able to negotiate some savings when you visit them for an initial ortho evaluation.
Bottomline, some orthodontists have better credentials and more experience than others, and your best best is whatever city you decide to call home to start shopping around based on reputation and references, and of course "price."
With regard to price, the only way you could save is with DENTAL INSURANCE but the fact that you are coming from another country, most likely you are like most Americans and have no dental insurance, which is add'l insurance coverage only some employers offer as a full-time employee benefit.
Good Luck!
