When I was getting dental services, I was advised that I was a good candidate for orthodontics at their clinic because I only have a little bit of crowding. So I think I will qualify. However, I have not gotten an official screening yet because they are so busy that they can't even waitlist people anymore. They said the earliest you can even call to ask for a screening is mid-April.
Even regular metallic braces are difficult to find for $3000, so Invisalign for that price would be a stretch. And it is fine for a dentist to remove braces at 10 months, the second important part is patient compliance (using the headgear). It does not matter if the dentist had kept them on for 10 months or 20 months...if you weren't going to use the headgear, then you would have ended up with the current result no matter what.
This is your son's fault; not the fault of either the braces or the dentist so I think it is unfair to say that your doctor is "not recommended". He cannot be responsible for someone else's immaturity.
