Guest guest Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 Well, I liked the orthodontist I went to see today, and I liked what he had to say...Actually, i liked what he *didn't* say.....he took all of the diagnostic stuff, and I have an appointment next week to go over my options after he analyzes the molds, photos, and xrays. He was quite optimistic that a lot could be done. Dr. Vince Cullen is the orthodontist, he has offices in Bucks County and Norristown and he's affiliated w/ UPenn. From what he saw in the initial consult, figured about a year of braces before surgery. He gave me a general quote of $5500 for the 1 year of braces (clear braces, brand name " Ice " ) and an additional $3000 for the OS surgery. No interest, no finance charge loans available through the office. $1500 due at the start of treatment. If I switch to my husband's insurance, that will cover $1500 of it. brenda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 Hi , Is that $3000 a fee to assist the OMS? I am confused!! lol Of course that is easy for me to do! lol Glad you had a good consult.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Hi Fran, I *think* it's $3000 for the entire surgery....of course, that's just a ballpark figure, since it was the OD and not the OMS quoting the price. > > Hi , > Is that $3000 a fee to assist the OMS?

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 Hi , Do you mean that the OD is willing to finance the OMS and the OD work both? If I am reading that right, that is amazing! Let us know what you find out when you go to the OMS! Hugs, Fran > > > > Hi , > > Is that $3000 a fee to assist the OMS?
