Many kids need to have braces but the cost of having makes it so some parents just can not afford them.  Even with dental insurance which help reduce the cost of braces for lower income house hold the cost of braces may still be out of reach.

However braces many still be within site for many lower income households, thanks to Smiles Change Lives.  Smile Change Lives is a program that serves kids and teen in all 50 states. If your child is between ages 11 – 18 you can apply to the program.  If approved you will be able to receive braces for only $250 – $500.

To be accepted the family can not earn too much money (as the program is for low income households) around $10,000.00 per person. In addition to the income requirements, your child teeth must be moderately to severely crooked.  The child also must take excellent care of their teeth lots of brushing and flossing.
