[quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand how you can’t afford this. My oldest needed 2 phases of orthodontics. The 1st phase was palate expansion at $5k and phase 2 was typical braces at $4500. That’s under $10k spaced out over years. We knew our child would need braces by the time they were 7 and had their first check up with an orthodontist. My youngest doesn’t need any orthodontia. So why is your teenaged child in need of braces and you haven’t planned for that? This doesn’t seem like an income issue. This seems like a poor planning and money management issues paired with not taking your child in for proper check ups. [/quote]
