No that much...I might need 2 braces on my two front teeth and one veneer and my teeth whitened. And one filling. I'm not missing any teeth and they are straight. Do dentist do free consultations?

Go get a check up op, you may know what you don't like about your teeth but you have no idea what treatment is needed to address this.... Everything else is just guesswork....

I really like my teeth its just they are sore at times and I was wondering if I could get them fixed forever for 2000

Then the answer is no, unfortunitely nothing is forever....

You may need a load of fillings extraction root canals and gum treatment that may soak up the 2000. And that's even before you look at the few issues you mention....
Bottom line is you need a check up....

Sure if you need a root canal post and crown on that one tooth but the op may just need a few fillings on multiple teeth....

Listen to yourself will you. Nobody here knows the condition of your teeth. Do you need orthodontic treatment?, veneers?, crowns?, how many?, whitening ? etc, so how could anyone possibly know how much it would cost. Keith Duffy probably had some ortho first to correct alignment then all his teeth veneered, he certainly paid more than €5k.

Just regarding your two front teeth. If they are out of position and you veneer/whiten them, they may look better but they are still out of position and not the "perfect" look you want. Now get out a small plastic ruler, measure the width of your two front teeth from their widest points, that will be the outer corners of the biting edges. Now the space available between the teeth either side of your front teeth (the space available into which to fit and align the front teeth) may be smaller than this measurement . Therefore in order to align your front teeth perfectly, the space may need to be widened, to widen this space, all your top teeth may need to be moved slightly. This ortho treatment alone may take 6-12 months and could cost €2k. Then whitening all teeth and who knows how many veneers to get the Keith Duffy look, it's impossible for anyone but your dentist or who ever you go to, to give you an estimate of costs.

It doesn't take a lot of lateral thinking for someone to find out how much it would cost to have teeth exactly like Keith Duffy, you could just make an appointment with the dentist who did them.

If you want cheap OP, I'd say a bottle of tippex is the best move. If you shop around, you should come in well under your 2k budget. Spend the difference on braces for your britches. Nothing spells success like grand white teeth and grand straight britches!
