What will the treatment cost?
The cost of any orthodontic treatment depends on the nature of the dental problem and its severity. Many orthodontic problems require limited treatment at relatively inexpensive fees. You ask if the treatment is worth the cost. The answer is definitely yes. The reason is that the cost of not getting treatment will cost far more money. It is hard to see into the future, to tell how the lack of orthodontic treatment will affect the patient, being you personally or your child. Certainly, a child who needs treatment and does not get it will have problems with their teeth for years to come. The health issues go well beyond good oral hygiene. For example; if a young child requires orthodontic treatment for jaw/dental problems, his growth is an essential part of having a successful result. Assuming this child did not have the treatment early enough, it would most likely require surgery and be more expensive to treat at a later age.
