Q. I am thinking of having oral surgery to advance my lower jaw and correct a receded chin and overbite. I am aware through the NHS this treatment is free and involves having metal braces. Roughly how much do you have to pay to have the surgery and ceramic braces done privately? thanks

A. This is very difficult to estimate as the surgeons fess can vary considerably. You should talk to you Orthodontist abot paying separately for the ceramic brackets as this will be the main difference with the treatments
