Q. Hello Safeer, My two upper front teeth are crooked, I’ve spoken to an NHS orthodontist who recommends braces but I am 27 and would rather avoid that! Is it possible to have the teeth removed and implants implanted? I will also require NHS surgery to correct an underbite, would it be possible to integrate NHS surgery with private implants? Lastly what would be the cost if the implants were doable? Thanks for your time

A. hi
it is not possible to comment on the underbite treatment without seeing you.
implants cost 2200 per tooth approx.
have you considered invsalign braces as this will address the cosmetic concerns with braces
the nhs does not  allow the mixing of private treatments
