How much were your braces prior to jaw surgery?!
Question: Just curious. My treatment is just under 2 years total in orthodontics. It's costing me over $11,000 for braces alone(no insurance so I've been paying cash). Is this typical or am I being overcharged?

I'm in San Antonio, TX and braces range anywhere from $2,500 to $8,000. The average price is probably $4,000. You also got to remember demographics. If you are on a rich side of town the Dentist will probably charge you an arm and a leg. If yoiur Dentist is on a poor side of town he will probably be cheaper.
Wow, braces and surgery costed me that much.
I guess it depends on how bad your teeth are and where you live. I live in Ca and mine were $6,200 5 years ago. My son just got his on and his will be around $4,000... Yes, $11,000 seems really high, but again, how bad are your teeth?
