Causes and Symptoms of Peroneal Tendon Injuries. Peroneal tendon injuries may be acute (occurring suddenly) or chronic (developing over a period of time). They most commonly occur in individuals who participate in sports that involve repetitive ankle motion. In addition, people with higher arches are at risk for developing peroneal tendon injuries.
As dental attachments, braces can be used on adults, children and teenagers, and their use depends on the extent of a patientâs dental problem and the age of the patient. Common dental problems, addressed with the use of braces, include malocclusion, dental bites and abnormal teeth gaps among others. In the U.S, the cost of braces ranges from $3000-$10,000.
However, treatment may take longer than it does for children. The average adult wears braces for 18 months to three years. As with children, adults may need to wear a retainer to maintain the results of treatment after braces are removed. The cost of braces depends on the type you select. On average, metal braces cost $5,000 to $6,000. Keep in mind that your out-of-pocket costs will likely be higher if you choose non-metal braces. Check your Evidence of Coverage, Summary Plan Description or Group Dental Service Contract to see if your dental plan covers orthodontic treatment for adults.
