Braces in Los Angeles

Orthodontists in Los Angeles California

I need extensive dental work done.How can I find a place that will allow me to use a payment plan

Say my insurance doesn’t cover braces. Seeing as how the average cost of braces is around $5K (correct me if I’m wrong), what kind of payment plans are there? I’m specifically looking for low monthly payments even if it is over a long period of time because my family is on the lower-bracket for income.
And while we’re on the subject, does anyone know if braces are covered at all by Medi-Cal for California residents? Thanks.
