Q: Getting My Daughter's Braces Off Mid-treatment

My daughter has had braces om her teeth for around 1 1/2 years. She should be getting them off sometime in december, but we have been unable to pay the monthly bill so she hasn't gone to the orthodontist for several months. We have talked to the orthodontist about how this is going to affect the progress of her braces, and she says that this will make her several months behind treatment. The problem is, we will be moving up to willmar, mn next week so we are looking for a new orthodontist, but i'm worried that I will not be able to pay the monthly bill anytime soon because i'm getting out of a domesic violence situation and have lots of bills to pay off. Her teeth do not need any more straightening, so I thought perhaps a dentist could remove the braces from her mouth and she could get a retainer so her straight teeth stay straight. She is experiencing a lot of pain because she hasn't has the bands or wires changed, and i'm very worried.



If anyone knows a orthodontist, dentist in mn that may help us, or a solution, email me.
