They generally accept any type of payment... How did you pay for braces?

If you have private health cover, you may also be able to claim rebates on your expenses?

Thank you for your reply..I'm paying my braces through credit card. I already ask my ortho about it and he told me that they will accept any type of payment.,:)

Who is your surgeon? I'm in Toronto as well, but going to the states for surgery... just curious. In Canada it's covered by healthcare so you'll only have to pay a few thousand dollars at the most like 4 thousand at the very upper-end. This surgery costs around 20-30 grand so you're lucky to be having it in Canada.
