[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had this done when I was about 8yo, then subsequently had braces. It's looking though one of my DCs will need this done, too. Curious: what is the cost of a frenectomy and is it coverd (if braces are not covered)?[/quote] Do not know the cost of the frenectomy as yet -- [b]already well under way with the braces[/b] (over 5 grand -- partially covered by insurance)[/quote] I have read that this is the right way to do things (opposite to how things were done in my case). That is, have the bite corrected with braces first and then follow-up with the frenectomy to keep things from shifting. It has to do with ensuring that the gap is fixed without creating too much open space at the top.[/quote]
