im 15 and i have 3mm diameter gap between my front teeth and is the treatment free on nhs

Saturday, May 30th, 2009
Q.
Dr Rob Tennet I had a large gap inbetween my top two front teeth which I had braces fitted on the NHS. This tretment continued for about 10 months then I wore a “night retainer” for a while yet I cannot remember the length but I went through 2 diffrent ones as they had “worn out”. Yet since being told I no longer needed to wear it my front gap has returned although it has remained smaller than before due to a fretescamy operation(removal of large muscle above front incisors). I now the gap is still fairly large with about 3mm diameter. Will I be able to return to the orthodontist without needing to pay for the teeth to be corrected as my family will struggle to afford them? Any advice or information will be gladly appreciated. Many thanks  (Curretly 15 going on 16 years old)

Thursday, May 21st, 2009
Q.
Hi please help me,I HATE my teeth.I was born with a cleft lip and pallate so as you can imagin my teeth are in a real sate,They have gaps and chips in them are crooked and discoulerd.My bite is also way out of line. I realy want to be able to smile again,have pictures taken with my son and go out with my friends without wearing a scalf over my face. I have asked my dentist to take them all out and give me dentures,but he said he wouldnt recommend it as the way my mouth is(i have had bone grafts etc) he doesnt think that i will be able to hold them. There must be something i can have done. I dont have much money but am willing to do what i can do be able to afford to have something done to them(finance is not an option for me) All i want is to be able to smile at people most importantley my son and to have the confidence to be able to go out without my scalfs.
