Sounds a lil much. Usually runs from $3500-$4000
Then you guys have been going to the wrong dentist.![]()

Neither root canals nor surgical extractions are painful procedures;unless your dentist doesn;t understand how to give proper anestheisa.
Anyway root canals can vary between 1500 and 5000 depending on the tooth, and the materials/equipment your dentist has invested in. Some dentists use old cheap techniques, and other faster more reliable ones.
Anyway;for the topic poster.
Expect braces to run you anywhere from $15,000 to $25,000 per arch. It;s largely depending on how bad things are, the movement needed and the appliance/appliances needed. Never look for the cheapest option. The more expensive orthodontists (at least in my experience) generally charge high because they seem to know what they are about and less likely to jam you more $$ if treatment takes longer.
Most will give you a payment plan, some will ask for lumpsums every few months.
Add in at least $2000 per year for regular dental checkups/cleanings and any other preliminary work you would need to do prior to starting the braces(fillings, extractions etc). Prelim work can run into 10,000+ depending.
Two Orthos I can personally recommend.
1) Trudee Ann Hoyte (POS)
2) Ashvin Sharma (CHAG)
Both are excellent.
In short; dont look for the cheapest orthodontist; all the budget ortho cases I've seen needed to be redone either due to relapse, or poor treatment planning to begin with. Patients are usually too exhausted after 2-4 years of braces to even get back into it and just settle.
