How much are braces and can I get them from the NHS?

Thursday, March 10th, 2011
Q.

Hi, my right front tooth is in front of the other and have a bad overbite. Also some of my teeth are in front of each other and either too long or crooked. I am on income based job seekers allowance, am I entitled to free braces and if yes which ones. What would be the rough estimated time that I would have to wear the brace for? I’m 21. Thank you

I am 23 years old and in full time education, can I get braces on the NHS?

Friday, January 28th, 2011
Q.

Hi there,

My question is in relation to orthodontic surgery.

I am currently 23 years old and in Full time education.

I had permanent braces fitted when i was a teenager and they were removed at the age of 15. I wore my retainer for the time scales my dentist advised. When i first had the braces fitted at 14 the dentist did not advise i needed to have any teeth removed, however I have had trouble with my wisdom teeth coming through and now my mouth feels over crowded.

Now 8 years later my top teeth have moved and my front 4 teeth had moved back to their original positions before having the braces!

I am really conscious of my smile, it’s not awful but i am aware of my teeth and have seen them looking better.

My main questions are – can i get braces again? And can adults only have invisylin? And what would the cost be? Being that i am a full time student will i get any benefit for this from the NHS or a discount? Your response would be much appreciated.

Can my daughter switch to a private orthodontist despite already having a lower brace fitted on the NHS?

Thursday, January 6th, 2011
Q.

My 15 year old daughter has just had a metal brace fitted to her lower teeth on the NHS and is due to have one fitted to her upper teeth in January. Having seen the lower one, I would like the top one to be the ceramic tooth coloured type. Can I still now switch to private treatment to have this done?

Would I be able to have braces free on the NHS if I am 20 years of age?

Thursday, December 2nd, 2010
Q.

Hello, I have a tax exemption cert and have also just had a baby. I have a really bad overbite and my bottom teeth are extremely crooked. My teeth are sensitive and I get a lot of problems caused by this. I am very self conscious about this and just wondered if there is anyway I could get a brace on the nhs, i would have anything just to straighten my teeth up but cannot afford to pay! I am 20 years old.
