Ten years ago i was recommened jaw realignment surgery can i have the treatment now
Q. Hi there When I was 17 I was referred to an orthodontist who advised that my lower jaw was slightly protuding and recommended jaw realignment surgery in order to straighten two teeth. I was keen to get this done, however my mum decided against it. That was over ten years ago and I would like to get this pursue this again as I unhappy with the appearance of my teeth. However is it now too late and would I get an NHS referral?
A. I am sure it is not too late, but you would require an examination initially. It is very umlikely to get this form treatment on the NHS.
