Can I Get Low-Cost Braces at Government Hospitals?

Patient's Query

I have a concern regarding my teeth as they are slightly protruding, and I’m considering braces treatment. Could you please let me know if such treatment is available at a low cost or for free in government hospitals? Also, I would appreciate information on how to apply for this treatment.

Answered by Dr. Ketan Revanwar

This condition, often caused by genetics or misalignment, can be effectively addressed with braces. Many government hospitals offer orthodontic services at reduced rates or, in some cases, for free, especially for eligible individuals. To explore this, I recommend visiting your local health facility or their website for details on enrollment and application procedures. It's crucial to consult with a dentist who can assess your specific situation and recommend the best course of treatment.

I applied lignocaine gel on the back throat, later I was given toxin powder, after that my mouth lost its sensation, after that I consulted the doctor, the doctor said that there is no toxicity in it, apply it again, the sensation will come back; later I had a lot of problem, skin presthesia or tongue presthesia is a lot of problem, I feel that nicotine etc. do not work, hair is falling, eyes are seeing blurred, there is a lot of problem.

Male | 25

Temporary numbness can occur with topical anesthetics, but persistent tingling or loss of sensation might require further evaluation. While these sensations can be distressing, they often resolve over time. Stress and anxiety can also contribute to feelings of discomfort and even hair loss. I recommend consulting your healthcare provider again to discuss these symptoms in detail and explore appropriate treatments. Prioritize your well-being, and don’t hesitate to seek support for relief and reassurance.

I a 18 year old female and I want to have braces in my tooth ... I have improper tooth I want to straight them

Female | 18

Malpositioned teeth can lead to problems such as difficulty in chewing and talking. It is the result of genetic factors or the acquisition of certain habits like sucking thumb. Braces are a well-known method for fixing such problems. They slowly shift your teeth to the desired position. Do not be afraid, as many teenagers your age wear braces, and is completely normal. But, you can visit an orthodontist to learn more about it.

I have operated my teeth from a orthodontist at the age of 14 .I had crooked teeth . After investing my 1 year my teeth were aligned. I had braces these year. Now at the age of 24 I can see my teeth are aligning back to their original spaces they are getting crooked again. I want to know about what to do next.

Female | 24

It sounds like your teeth are going back to their original positions again. This is possible to happen in the case that you do not use your retainers according to the plan of your orthodontist. The deletion of the braces, and retainers are useful for keeping teeth in their new position. They are the ones responsible for the extraction of teeth which in turn migrate back. The first and the most important step to stop it would be to rank shifting to acutely wearing the retainer again. Be relaxed, talk to your orthodontist, and ask for instructions.

Mera poora daat (teeth) nahi hai kya mujhe free me duplicate teeth mil sakta hai kya

पुरुष | 54

A variety of factors may result in missing teeth such as genetics or poor oral hygiene. The indicators include difficulty chewing or they are not confident to smile. You may still smile, but with a "duplicate tooth" which is a denture. They are braces that look like your natural teeth and that help you with meal time and grin freely.

I'm 22 yrs old female and I've had this brown spot under my tongue, and now i see similar spots over the side of my tongue. I'm confused as to what they're. And recently I've been to dentists too, for tooth extraction and filling. But none of them suggested anything. Like if those spots were danger to me or not. I've been an active smoker and recently am trying to quit it. I'd really like to know if those brown spots are dangerous for me.

I am 48 year old female. Mere ear me awaj aati hai khana khate time or mene 3 month before apni dant nikalwayi thi uske bad se ye problem ho rahi hai please suggest me

Female | 48

You may have tinnitus, a condition that causes you to hear sounds such as ringing, buzzing, or humming in your ear. This can come about after a tooth is pulled because of the closeness of the jaw joint to the ear. The shift in your jaw may be the reason behind your ear's irregularity. Steer away from loud noises, manage stress, and get enough sleep. But if it continues, go to the doctor for a further check-up.

my 26 year old sister got her wisdom teeth out three weeks ago. Now, her cheek is swollen. Is that normal after wisdom teeth removal? Should we be worried?

Female | 26

It is normal for swelling to occur after wisdom teeth removal. This is a part of the healing. But if the swelling is severe, your sister should see her dentist or an oral surgeon for a review.
