    Ok so I hope to get braces pretty soon (been saving all summer) im going to arrange a appointment for sometime this week :)
    I want to get them on as soon as possible,hoping to have them on this time next month.
    But my question is do i have to get my wisdom teeth pulled before I get braces?
    Because I heard the waiting list is really long :( I got a medical card a few months back, can that be used? 3 of my wisdom teeth are showing
    oh and im 18 if that matters

    Your orthodontist will tell you, if you haven't seen one yet you are unlikely to meet your deadlines.

    Thanks for the response
    Yeah I know my deadline will be tight but I thinking it achievable
    :)
    I got more than enough money for deposit etc
    (Orthdontist gave me a estimate cost for treatment and how much deposit will be)

    If you have not had a consultation in person yet with models and x-rays then you don't know how long it will take, how much it will actually cost, if you require extractions or filling s first.you really need to go for a consultation first, all you questions will be answered there.
