Do NHS offer any ‘invisible’ brace treatments? I want a discreet brace but cannot afford private treatment?

Thursday, August 19th, 2010
Q.
Dear Dr Solankie, I am considering having my teeth straightened, however am unsure as to waht is the best method to use. I would like to know the costs of certain treatments and if they can be offered on the NHS? I am 25 years old and so don´t want something that is really obvious, however can´t afford anything like Invisiline which I have heard is very expensive. I like the idea of the brace which fits behind the teeth so you can´t see it. Are their any other options i could look into? I don´t know if it makes any difference to cost but it is only one side of my mouth where my teeth are crooked – the other side is completely straight! It is quite bad though and knocks my confidence alot. Any advice on costs etc you can would be very much appreciated. Thank you.,

My daughter has a severe underbite and I would like some advice on what the best course of action would be. Can you help?

Monday, August 16th, 2010
Q.
Dr Moore, My 7 year old daughter has a very severe underbite – can you please advise what’s the best course of action for us to take. We consulted a dentist previously who advised that nothing can be done until she has her adult teeth. What kind of treatment can we expect then to remedy the problem., and how successful will it be? Should we seek the advise of a specialist orthodontist now? I would be very grateful for any advice.,
