I’m 18 And In Full Time Education, How Much Would It Cost To Have My Overlapping Teeth Corrected?

Q.
HI. 🙂

I have near perfect teeth in that all of them are straight, but the curve of my jawline is stronger on one side of my mouth. Consequently, there is less of an overlap of my bite on that side. It also makes the teeth on that side appear bigger when I smile because they bulge out slightly more. It is not a very huge problem and I can chew fine. No one else notices it but what forms of correction could I get? I don’t think I require anything too drastic because as I said there is no pain and I can eat just fine. However, is there any chance of this small problem developing into something more serious? If possible, could you give me a cost range? I am 18 and in full time education and so I understand that NHS treatment will not be an option for me anymore.

Thank you for your help in advance!

Hello, thank you for your question. I would suggest that braces are probably your only option. You’ll need to pay from £1500 per jaw. I hope this helps.
