Dentist said mouth surgery eminent if we don't get braces on Low Jr's snaggle teeth. Anybody got a non-quack that won't rip me a new one?

Can't do "fast braces"? Seems they were well under 3k not too long ago.

I used Dr. Frugé in Gonzales last year. Super professional, nice, quick visits, and knows what the frick he’s doing.

We’re in Lafayette so no recs but get a second opinion. One told us we needed pallet expanders and what not and the other told us we could have a few teeth pulled and that would do it. (Super small mouth to fit all of his teeth)

But when I told him we weren’t at a point to afford braces, he said “it’s really not imperative at this point”. He said it was cosmetic but could get to be an issue and he’d be ready when we were able to do it.

He wasn’t pushy and I liked that. We went back to him with all 3 kids and got a discount on %2 and then #3.

I heard he'll get a better job in a few years with gold crowns, may as well focus your money towards that

Getting a “deal” on this isn’t the way I would go. Sherman and Balhoff has done a great job for my son. The before/after pictures are pretty telling of the job they have done. I highly recommend them.

Make the drive in to BR and see former Tiger John Whitley....we got an outrageous proposal form an orthodontist who tried to get my wife to make a deposit and an appointment that day but a friend luckily suggested we get a 2nd opinion from Whitley...he has tons of experience/certifications and such..needless to say he was very good and saved us thousands

Rick Martin is excellent, won't break the bank as much as many. I say no to Sherman and Balhoff, I've heard stories, no offense to their many friends in this thread.
