I've been told today that DS2 needs braces (no surprise) he would qualify for NHS treatment but there is currently a 3 year wait! He's 12 and would benefit from having them done sooner rather than later as his teeth are very crooked, he has a huge issue with them (is very self conscious) & the orthodontist thought it best to get them done sooner rather than later.
They quoted me. £1650 to have "train track" type braces & £2600 for the see through type.
I was actually surprised that it seems quite cheap. Yes I know it's a ridiculous amount of money and money that I don't have without borrowing from family
Should I shop around do you think or is it quite reasonable??
