its not really their fault.
I don't know...if you've ever had a really bad toothache, you'll pretty much pay whatever they ask for if they fix it for you! I think any amount of money is worth getting rid of the excruciating pain of toothache!
they do sometimes when they need it but usually don't but it costs a lota for braces
Do you know what it takes to earn a dental degree?
1.High School Diploma
2.4-year college degree ($80-250K)
3.4-year dental school degree DDS or DMD ($200-400K)
4.Dental practice purchase ($300K to over $1,000,000)
**All of the above happens before you make one penny from your very first dental patient**

So maybe your dentist is not charging enough?
Every dentist I know drives a normal sized car, shops int he same places I shop and has a house similar to mine. I don't see them living high on the hog. I attend Kiwanis where there are several local dentists, the price just to keep up in the way of supplies and machines is staggering. They pd. a lot for school, worked hard an d studied long.
