Just had this done with my 4 year old dog at Veterinaire. Reason so expensive is they have to sedate the dog entirely for the procedure. I can’t fully remember but I believe ours was around $800

Ventilation improvements might help. I think hallways are positively pressurized in many buildings for this reason, keeps your air in your place. Maybe the neighbors could do more to ventilate their air outside. Ventilating your place would help too, and cut down on lingering smells. If you can identify where the air is really coming into your place, get a good air filter next to it.

The vet has to give you a high estimate in case they are going to extract teeth. No matter what you need to do this at a GOOD vet. The anesthesia is risky, and animals die under anesthesia ALL. THE. TIME. Do NOT go to a "discount" place to do this. Ask if that number includes extractions, which may not even be necessary. 25 years ago I paid $800 for a full dental for my dog, so $1,400 seems right to me. But really, of all the things in life to skimp on this is NOT one of them.
