If you have read how I came up with the estimate, you'll understand
that I have accounted for all possible costs for the orthodontist and
also included a handsome profit for them.

Exactly my point! Orthodontists charge people to the extent they
believe the patients can pay.

Unfortunately, there aren't any orthodontists that are satisfied with
"reasonable profit" and every orthodontist is waiting until the other

there's a loot to me made, why not take as much as you can? What do you
say?
