So as of right now I have braces and can’t go to basic training with them if I remove them and finish basic training will I be able to get braces again when I’m in the military?
Hi Tyrone. Do you know if we are allowed to join the Military with really bad teeth? I want to join the Army but I'm slightly afraid of criticism from other privates and/or sergeants.
Nicole Leonard MEPS doesn't care for your teeth, neither do your recruiter. Do not worry, there are a lot of people in the military with "bad teeth." I have crooked teeth as well -- don't worry about your imperfections.
Dude i got buck ass teeth and been in for 2 1/2 years who gives a shit. Make sure theyre not gross tho just take care of them but no one give af if theyre healthy and crooked you might get made fun of but thats life.
I’m in the special Warfare program for the navy, I need braces really bad. I have overcrowthing, but I want to get my contract even more. You’re not allowed to wear glasses while in the special Warfare program, if you have bad eyesight then you must get surgery, so my question is will they allow me to have braces while deployed after receiving my contract?
janara lawrence No, because you have to go to the same orthodontist to get them tighten every month so that’s why they make you wait until your first duty station
Active Duty has to see military dentist. Preferably on the base they are assigned to. Reservist, Only has to see Dentist on base every 2 years. You will also have to locate your own dental office, schedule your own appointments, and pay whatever the TDP doesn't pay.
So you are in the Airforce or Army. Because Army sucks. And more on fort polk. I ask many, Many times and the didnt help me at all. Not even with eye surgery (laser) 🤓
Bruh I literally ask dental how to get em and they literally told me to do my research cuz tricare doesn’t cover braces.. this is BS

jjkk619 thank you. I've actually talked to my recruiter last week, and he said the Army cares for all Medical and Dental insurance.
@@jjkk619 I have to get a waiver because I have an underbite for the army

Off topic but does laser surgery get covered if you trying to get normal vision.. trying to do that after tech school but not sure how how that works?
Yes!
Is it better to get braces before the military or after you get there
Deion Thomas After. I don’t think you can go to basic training with braces.
Are you in the Air Force? And what contract do you have sign in order to be eligible for free dental care?
can you get invisalign in the air force ?
David Hernandez can i pass the meps even my back teeth is really bad. I got 3 broken teeth inside. Ughhh. Please answer. Thanks

Raees Kelty I need this same answer . For Air Force
janara lawrence No, because you have to go to the same orthodontist to get them tighten every month so that’s why they make you wait until your first duty station
Do you have to see a military dentist?
