Mine didn't mention any discounts upfront, but when I asked they said they'd knock off a bit for cash payments. Wonder why they don't just tell you upfront... anyone else had to specifically ask about it?
Mine was exactly the same—I had to awkwardly bring it up myself. Felt a bit weird, honestly, like I was haggling at a flea market or something, lol. Maybe they just don't wanna seem pushy about cash payments upfront? Anyway, good on you for asking; every little bit counts when you're budgeting for braces. Glad you got a discount out of it!
Haha, I totally get that flea market vibe—been there myself. Honestly though, I think most dental offices just assume people prefer monthly payments since braces are pricey upfront. But from experience, paying upfront can save you a decent chunk of change overall. I did it with my second kid's braces and was surprised how much we saved...definitely worth the awkward convo if you can swing it financially.
