My 13 year old has an overbite and a slight gap between his front teeth. His teeth are healthy and he goes to the dentist twice a year. I have dental insurance but it offers very little on braces.
I already check into it and can not afford to get him braces with the current insurance plan I have now. I would like to get his teeth fixed but it is an added expense I need to be able to afford to take on.

When I was eight I had really bad teeth but my parents were told by a Orthodontic dentist that it was too soon for me to have braces so they put off the work that needed to be done. Two years latter my parents dental plan no longer would cover for braces.
So in short I never got the need braces when I should have. Now my teeth are really crooked and I hate them. I a sixteen and just want to have good teeth. My parents know I need braces but they say they can not afford them.
What can I do to make it affordable for my parents to finally get me the braces I really need to have in order for me to have straight teeth. They do not understand just how up set I am that I have to have crooked teeth.
