Default Orthodontist on the GC

My son came home with a letter from the school dental bus today recommending he sees an orthodontist, I have heard some scary stories about waiting lists and prices, he does not need immediate attention so willing to wait. Does anyone know roughly how much braces /retainers cost and if u could recommend an orthodontist on the Gold Coast.
Thx in advance.

I think there is one in Beenleigh that is cheaper than the rest, although, I do not know how good they are. If you are looking for an EXCELLENT orthadontist, try Dr Bill Medland at Benowa, he is fantastic, but he comes at a price
