John Shrall Posted July 4, 2016 Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 I have a granddaughter coming down to visit for a month that needs braces. Her family can't afford them in the US so I'm looking for local options. Dental Express has a visiting doctor from Guadalajara that only comes once a month but this month's schedule is full.

rckrckr Posted July 4, 2016 Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 Dr. Ruben Berny in Dr. Barragan's office in Riberas is an excellent orthodontist. He is there only once or twice a month, but you can check to see if he has an appointment at the time you need. 765-5584. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdlngton Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 Who is going to do adjustments during her treatment? There is a lot more to orthodontia than just putting the brackets on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lulugirl Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 bigd, I don't think the granddaughter will be flying down here monthly for adjustments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a 2 part process. First see if someone here locally can install braces and then is there an orthodondist in Dallas willing to make adjustments. It's going to be an all or nothing deal. I understand that some orthodontists are not terribly inclined to adjust someone elses work. Thanks to all for the input so far. We're still working on it.

Yo1 Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 Sometimes it's not a matter of putting on braces and adjusting them. Sometimes teeth have to be pulled to have enough room for the others to be straightened. Has she seen an orthodontist where she lives just for an evaluation?
