    So I am getting ortho done after long extensive visits with a dentist at UTDB (highly recommended) thanks guys!

    Anyway, now I am at the point of getting ortho, I have waiting long enough, problem is it will be roughly around $3200, including 4 extractions. So my question is who should I go to for a loan. I obviously don't have the money cash and I definitely think this is worth getting in debt for. I have a decent credit history in terms of paying things on time. I own a vehicle that I pay monthly and according to what I make at my part time job I would be able to pay about 100 every month. Any suggestions, I was thinking of getting a credit increase or should I go to a bank or credit union?

    Any advice would be great, thanks in advance.

    "You mind keeping it under 90? :( I'm still trying to pay for this dental work."

    anyone have any experience with care credit, because this isn't a private practice I am going to, I am going through UTDB and I need to pay upfront in cash or with a credit card.

    I applied for this myself when I needed some dental work done. It works exactly like a credit card. The only question you'll have to find out if UTDB accepts it as a form of payment.

    Pay with credit card *cash advance*, to avoid the $300 adminstrative fee from the loan.
