Is 7000 too much for braces?

I was given a quote for 6900 for braces and too me that seems really high. I am getting the clarity braces and my teeth are pretty crooked, but not horrible. I live in Nebraska... no insurance. Any thoughts?

Update:

Ug. i know. I thought it might be high because I am an adult and they will have to be on for 2 years but I really cant afford that. The problem is Ive already paid 350 for the x rays so i hate to spend more money getting a quote from another orthodontist.

    i got mine for a bit more than that. remember, if your teeth are pretty bad, it means a longer period of braces, meaning higher cost. and clarity is an additional cost.

    you should find someone else.

    in my opinion i think that 7000 dollars is way to much for braces, but in this case you say that they are clarity braces and that's why they cost so much because they are better than the metal braces.

    I used to have braces mine were almost $5000. But that was 6 years ago.Yes you should get them your smile will be a lot prettier. It's so worth it. I don't regret mine at all. But you should find them for a lot cheaper.

    Well, it really depends on how much money you have. If you are a multi-millionaire, then that's okay. But,in my opinion, that is WAY to expensive for me. I don't want you to lose all that money.

    That's way too expensive. He's cheating you. And you can ask for your x-rays. After all, you paid for them.
