Can i get dental implants treatment at NHS?

Q. Hi Dr Moore I would like your advice on what i need done to my teeth and where to start. Bascially when i was younger my front tooth was knocked out and over the years the gap has closed and the is no space for an implant. Im 22 years old and a student at the moment so cant afford £1000s. Would an NHS dentist do this type of work? or what would advive i do to start correcting this promlem, as it is really affecting me. thank you for taking the time to read this.

A. Hi, you may be able to find an NHS dentist to take on your case, however it does sound like you need complex cosmetic treatment possibly involving orthodontic (brace) treatment followed by either veneers and bridgework or dental implants. It might be good to enquiry into the possibility of a referral to a local teaching hospital where treatment is often free or at a reduced rate.
