[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn’t consider myself middle class if I was struggling to cover something as basic as braces. [/quote] Braces are not that cheap. Have have three in braces and it’s about $21000 in Arlington. [/quote] Anything is expensive when you multiply it by 3 and do the highest end version. For one kid, standard braces without serious bite or jaw issues should be around 3k in the DC area. Could go up to 5k if you do two rounds, maybe more with a palate expander. [/quote]
