Got a interest free, non-repayable "loan" from the bank of Daddy! I'm out of college less than a year and couldn't afford the 5700Euro bill without a loan. Have a health plan but this covers sweet F A! I don't know why, but here none of the health insurance providers I looked at cover orthodontics at all. I'm hoping it will cover the wisdom teeth extractions I'm due, since these are neccessary (not that braces aren't "neccessary" but my wisdom teeth are causes problems and would need to be extracted regards of whether I had braces or not.)
Treatment cost: $6,400
Insurance paid $1,000 for orthodontics
I paid $1,400 as down payment out of pocket
Monthly payments of $200 for 20 months out of pocket.
