Can I get Veneers on the NHS?

Q. Im 16 and have a gap inbetween my front two teeth.would veneers help this problem? and would i get it free on the NHS?,
A. You could have veneers but chances are this could make your front teeth look really big, orthodontics ( braces would be the best way) ask your dentist for a referral to your local orthodontist.

Hello,

I have a similar problem,I’m 26 and I was told by the dentist previously that braces will not fix the problem as I am missing a tooth and once braces are taken off,my teeth will go back to the pre-braces position
