Default After Inman Aligner treatment

Hi,
My daughter has a middle front tooth which has twisted and is starting to overlap on the other tooth. She also has slightly uneven bottom teeth but I don't think it looks too bad. However, I still would like her teeth to be straightened and I have been told she would not qualify for NHS braces as the teeth have to be very bad to qualify. As I would have to pay privately for normal train-track braces, would you know how much normal braces would cost? If the difference isn't drastic, I would prefer to go down the Inman route.

Also, once treatment has finished with the Inman Aligner (or the train-track braces), would she have to wear a retainer forever or is it just for a year or so? Would the retainer be worn just at bedtime?

I would appreciate any feedback on this.

Many thanks!
