Yes he can refuse if he wanted to. Yes, this is true. I guess you can look at it two ways. The way most orthodontists would probably look at it is that they are small businesses and need a steady income. Therefore, if they are providing you a service, and you refuse to pay, then they have a right to discontinue that service. However, another way to look at it is that orthodonture is more closely related to the medical industry, and they really should not be permitted to refuse to remove mouth braces for non-payment any more than a medical doctor could refuse to remove braces on a patient's leg or arm without payment. Most orthodontists patients are children and it is their parents who may be unable to pay.
