It was not until 1997, when Apple was desperately in need of an operating system, that it bought out NeXT Software (Jobs' company) and the board of directors decided to ask for some help from an old friend: Steve Jobs.
The cost of orthodontic treatment with dental braces is approximately $3,000 to $7,000. Your specific braces cost is determined by a variety of factors. These factors include the type of treatment, the duration of treatment, the orthodontist, location, your dental insurance and any other restorative work that may need to be completed prior to or throughout treatment.
How long your child will need to wear braces depends on the problems the orthodontist is trying to fix, but the average is about 2 years. After that, your child might wear a specially molded retainer â a small, hard piece of plastic with metal wires or a thin piece of plastic shaped like a mouthguard.
