Thanks for all the contributions. My daughter had her first appointment with an orthodontist in N.I. (oops! maybe that was a little unpatriotic!). Initial appoinment with x-rays, photographs etc €110, braces top and bottom €3,250 to be paid over 18 months. Separately, one extraction required, also two fillings and clean carried out.
Is this legal? The MED2 form asks for the date on which treatments were carried out, so I presume treatments must be carried out this year. If Revenue see a huge spike in claims for the last few months of the year, perhaps they might start auditing dentists or other medics?If you can pay it all before christmas there is 40% tax back if you are on the top rate of tax after christmas its down to 20%.

My family and I have had excellent work at half the price of Southern based orthodontist's and dentist's (They even sourced their dental materials from the same supplier in the North!) carried out in N.I.
Don't forget you can claim your tax back on the N.I. work in the South as well.
Don't be foolish about being unpatriotic as you can see for example, many government based tenders have been given to the U.K. and elsewhere in the EU. Personally I believe anything that helps unite both the South and the North, even the South's rip off pricing has to be a good thing for the unity and friendship of all of Ireland
