Elective braces cost

I clearly communicated to my ex that I am not in a financial position to pay for half of the cost of braces for my daughter at this time. The braces are purely for cosmetic purposes, so I am considering it as an elective procedure. Well the braces were put on today, and my ex is demanding $1900 reimbursed to her or she will take me to court. I was not involved in the decision making process, what orthodontist did the procedure, or when it was done. Am I responsible for half of this cost?
