I agree with the first post...Find a new dentist! Most dentist are honest, but there are always a few bad apples in the basket. Before you go further, try to get another opinion. I have the same situation you describe, except they kept me in braces for four years. I now have two bridges due to the damage incurred because of this. If you can afford implants, they are the way to go. You won't have to worry about those capped teeth being damaged and having to undergo further treatment and expense! Good Luck!

No one here can answer that question for you. The price you quoted for a root canal is a little high. You may want a second opinion in regard to what needs to be completed in order to maintain your natural teeth. The natural teeth are always preferred over any other replacement or appliance.
