Can you help....
Can you help me find a good dentist who can do braces for a 10yr old child in Doha ?
How much would be the total expenditure ?
Or is it advisable to do it from your home country ?
If so, what do you do when it comes to follow up consultations ?
Please advise..and thanx in advance...
I dont know the practice in different countries as I am not a dentist.
but back in Germany we fix braces on young children, as older the kids get as more painful it is and the longer it takes to have the teeth fixed. (coz the bones are hard and stiff and do not grow or less)
Logic, if the bones are still growing its more easy to shape, like a tree, if you have a small growing plant you can give it almost any shape, try to twist a 200 year old tree..
so I had my braces when I was 10Y old.. and all is fine.
Best is go see a dentist and they can tell you in advance how much it is going to cost.
If your child's front teeths came out and you want to fix braces to become the teeths in level, I think no dentist will prefer to fix it. Because your child is growing now and the shape of the face is not yet completed.So it is not good to fix braces in this gowing time.
It is very cosly here to fix braces. If your company provided insurance and the insurance company will cover this type of treatment then Okay. If you doing it in India, you have consult the dentist 2 to 3 times to tight the braces.
Anyway contact a good physician and ask advise.
Best regards
Dental Services is quite expensive in GCC, its better to get it done in your home country. If money is not a matter, then you will find lots of them in and around Doha.
well...I was told that "the earlier the better"....
its not advised to put braces on a 10 year old, wait till he is in his teens..
