My 5 year old daughter has a severe bite problem, what can I do about this?

Thursday, July 22nd, 2010
Q.
My 5 year old daughter has a phase 3 bite. I have been advised that she can have a brace fitted to increase the size of her top jaw. I am aware that this is very expensive and I have limited resources. Can this be funded by the NHS? I do not want her to have to wait until she is a teenager. Her bite is not really bad at present but I understand that it will get significantly worse during puberty. My daughter is very tall for her age and is more than likely to hit puberty earlier than her peers. I would really appreciate some advice. Kind regards.
