My daughter has an open anterior bite and needs an NHS orthodontist

Q.
My daughter is 11 years old with an open anterior bite, she has all adult teeth on the upper arch with just a couple of deciduous teeth left to loose on the lowers, I have not asked for orthodontic treatment on her before now as I did not want to put her through treatment only to have to be repeated with the loss of baby teeth.

Manchester Invisalign on NHS or braces for students for front teeth sticking out

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008
Q.
I have very uneven teeth in particular my front upper four teeth stick out a lot, I am unhappy with the way they effect my smile and have asked my dentist about straightening them on the nhs, her response was that i was not to worry as its too late as i am a adult, i am a student and was wondering if there were braces or something that i could have done in order to fix them back in place and how costly it would be, i also have a cap on one of the four front top teeth and would like to know if the brace would move this tooth aswell, thanks.
