I Have A Large Overbite Which Is Going To Cause Me Problems In The Future. Will The NHS Provide Me With Orthodontic Treatment?

Friday, October 24th, 2014
Q.

Hello Marcus. I have a large overbite which causes me real unhappiness. I feel ugly and embarrassed and paranoid that people laugh at me this is really getting me down. My dentist has said it will cause me problems in the future because my bottom teeth hit my gums. I don’t have a bite. I bite with the side of my mouth. Is there anyway I could have orthodontic treatment on the NHS as I’m not in a position to pay thousands of pounds, if I was I would get it sorted tomorrow. Thank you for you time.

Can I Get Braces on the NHS?

Friday, September 19th, 2014
Q.

I’m 21 years old and I’m unemployed. Am I allowed braces on the NHS?

The reason I ask is,  from the age of 14 I have been bullied regarding my teeth. I’ve never had confidence because of this, I have received counselling and nothing has helped!

When I was 16 I asked my dentist for braces and he said I don’t need them and if I want them then I have to pay £2000, so after that I thought I’m never going to get straight teeth.

Today I decided to look up about prices and it stated that if I was under 18 I would have been able to get them on NHS!

I have had a very hard life regarding this.

How do I go about applying for NHS braces? Regards.

Which is the Cheapest Method of Straightening Teeth?

Monday, September 8th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Gambroudes. When I was at school I had to wear braces for a while. I’m now 22 years old and am still not happy with my teeth. I’m depressed and sometimes I can’t come into work because of my lack of confidence. I don’t earn a great amount of money and I know braces can be expensive. What is the cheapest method of straightening my teeth? I make sure to look after my teeth very well. I have a gap between my 2 front teeth. It is mainly the top tier of my mouth that I don’t like. It just needs a good straightening, although it is not disastrous. Please get back to me. Thank you kindly.

Could You Give Me A Rough Estimate Off How Much It Would Cost To Get My Jaw Aligned?

Wednesday, February 26th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Moore. My top jaw comes out more forward than my bottom one, I think this is called an overbite. This means my bite basically covers my bottom teeth. Also when I bring my bottom jaw forward to meet my top teeth one of jaws are not straight resulting in a big space either side of my front teeth. Apart from this my teeth are all straight. I would like to have my jaw realigned. Do you think that this is the best option? Also, could you give me rough estimate of how much this sort of treatment would cost? I hope to hear from you. Thank you.

How Much Will It Cost To Get Braces After I Graduate?

Monday, October 7th, 2013
Q.

Hi Dr Hussein Shaffie. What I would like to discuss with you is that I had a brace for around about 2 -2 and a half years in my teenage years. A few years have passed since and I’m now 21 years old, and have noticed that one of my front teeth has begun to overlap the adjacent tooth (this was the structure prior to my brace). I’m currently a student at the moment and as you can imagine cannot afford to get it fixed but would like to in the future. Can you estimate how much this would cost based on my description?

Kind regards, I thank you in advance for any information you can provide me with this issue.
