You can get a supplemental plan to your medicaid that
would cover braces. I suggest eHealthPlus membership
to get 60% off the cost of braces. You may still need to come
up with the down payment though and the rest could be
arranged to be paid off over time.

Well my braces were about $3500 without insurance, it really depends on the dentist on how much they want to charge you. It could run up to $5000 which ive had friends pay that much. You can do a payment plan, you put down a certain amount (you want to down payment as much as you can to have lower monthly payments) And then just do monthly payments until its completly paid off.

first off, it depends on the amount of work needed to the teeth. It could range from about $800-6000 dollars. Some orthodontists require you to lay a certain amont of money on the table when you get braces. Some people pay in full and get it over with, or some pay monthly payments until the balance reaches 0
Hope that helps!!!

I live in southern illinois and my 12 has been wearing braces and retainers since he was 6 or 7. So far his toatl cost has been over $3,000. He still has one more stage to go through before he is done. Our ortho has us make a down payment and then we make monthly intrest free payments, that are spread out throughth course not treatment.
I illinois if youare on Medicaid, your primary dentist has to fill out paperwork and then submit it to medicaid for you to be given the ok to see the ortho. After seeing the ortho he has to submit a quote of the work that you need done. Medicad then tells you if it is apprved and how much if any that oyu have to pay.
I would check out your state medicaid wbesite and do some investigateing if I were you. Unless you get the info your self before you talk to them they will deny being able to pay for anything. I did not know illinois would pay for them until I was looking up some information on what tpyes of services and doctors that were approved for payment, for my cousin.

My daughter's cost about $5000. We put $1000 down and made a monthly payment for 18 months. Well, that was the deal, we ended up paying it off earlier though.

My braces were done in England cos they were free on the National Health Service. I had £2000 worth of work done, and my teeth look straight n nice now.
In America, it may be more expensive though. Good luck,
me ;)
