Would I be eligible to get braces if I’m a 11B? I’ve heard that I can and can’t. Would anyone be able to give me a legit answer? Thank you in advance.

You can, but your teeth need to be super messed up and once you have em you are non-deployable. At least thats what they told me at the dental brief.

Call [login to see] , and ask directly where you, as active duty, could get a referral from your installation to VA dentistry for a consult...your fscility would obviously have to makemtje referral for you, whether orthodontics, oral surgery, or Imvisalign, however, you could at least ask the toll free staff where the facilities are near where you're assigned, I should think...?
