First off I just want to say that I live in Ontario, Canada and therefore I have provincial health insurance which covers certain costs. All cost in Canadian dollars.
This is a break down from start to finish:
- Braces: (first set) $3000
- Premolar removal $500- 1000 (estimating as this was a long time ago)
- Braces: (second set) $7000
- Wisdom teeth removal: $1300
- Surgical Planning $3500
The surgery itself was covered by OHIP and I have additional health insurance for my prescriptions which I'm sure would have been at least a few hundred on top of everything.
I'm not sure how other surgeons price out their surgeries but for my surgeon $3500 seems to be a standard rate for a double jaw surgery and genioplasty. Those fees included costs incurred at his private office such as x-rays, follow up visits, moulds, and other related costs. There was also an initial consultation fee of $200.
