Q.
I never had enough adult teeth come through . The 2 teeth either side of my front top ones never grew. As a teenager they fitted me with a brace to pull the teeth there to the side to create 2 spaces big enough for 2 bridges to be fitted with false teeth. 10 years on I am visiting the dentist every couple weeks to have 1 or the other re-cemented in as they keep falling out. The dentist has told me all my other teeth are fine and healthy and recommended either implants or new bridges attached to crowns over the teeth either side. I cant afford either of these. Would they be available on the NHS? IF I keep having my healthy teeth filed down to re-attach my current bridges, I’ll soon end up damaging those teeth permanently.
