I have braces but cant pay.. Can I have them removed.?

Ok, the long story is, I needed a surgery aftr my braces to extend the upper jaw (forgot whats called) so I was expecting my medical insurance would cover the surgery. I just found out it doesnt and the total cost will be from my pocket (~$25k). I'm not cheap but am I the only one who thinks that INSANE for fixing a smile?
Now, that I wont be getting a surgery, I wont need braces... my ortho had mentions braces without surgery would be useless. If i cancel my braces (after 6 months into a 2 year contract) will I still need to pay the full amount of my contract? Or do dentists kind of slide a bit. ( i have already paid close to $2k for these braces)

What a shame! Talk to your dentist. I am sure he will not charge you the full amount. But you will have to pay for what he has done thus far. Good luck to you.
