Getting braces in Foreign country and have check up in US?

I'm an international student, and I'm currently having my summer vacation in my hometown. I wanna take this gap and get braces in my country, so that I have enough time to get used to them until I come back to US and continue my study. The thing that I'm wondering is that whether the orthodontists here in America will help me tighten the braces when I didn't get the braces from them? If they do, can the dental insurance cover part of the cost?
--------------------
over here they should be able to help tighten them but if the ones you are getting are old ones i am not sure but they should and i think the insurance should help cover some of the cost they do for mine.

How much does a retainer cost in Greensboro NC?

i'm getting a retainer(i havent had braces). i only have a few gaps and a small overbite, how much might they cost. AND I DONT HAVE ANY DENTAL INSURANCE. please answer
--------------------
http://www.sextondental.net/page3.html I don't know if the above link will help but when I was comparing dental costs last year I found it refreshing that they had their prices right up front. The dentists in my town in Arizona are so expensive I was, at one time thinking to going to the above as it would have been cheaper. I ended up going to Mexico and got good work done, fast and cheap. Perhaps you could check with them to get an approximation. good luck

insurance and braces help?

i have cigna PPO dental (high) insurance and they cover some of my braces but its through work. if i quit work now i lose my insurance--will i have to pay full price for my braces? i have what insurance didnt pay set up on a payment plan thru my orthodontist, but will my insurance company take what they paid back if i quit work? we pay month to month for it in order to keep our services! thanks
--------------------
If your health benefits are through your job....when you quit...the benefits quit. The only other option is to Cobra the health benefits. Which means you will pay the cost of the health insurance plan. That's going to be more than you are paying now for health insurance.

Dental Annual Maximum question?

I got a lot of dental work done this year and reached my Annual Maximum fairly quickly. I however never got my Cleaning done this year. Even though I have reached the Maximum, will my insurance cover the dental cleaning? Or will I most likely have to pay that out of pocket?
--------------------
confused- There are different coverages in dental insurance. Some, like mine, fully cover routine cleanings and dental exams twice a year plus partial coverage of other dental work up to the annual maximum. You should call your dental insurer and ask and, if you have a copy of your dental insurance plan coverage (and you should), then carefully read the extent of coverage. Good luck.
