Braces: NHS.. Free for bad teeth, pricey for good teeth?
basically the nhs does not have enough funds to give everyone free braces. so, people with bad teeth get free braces for a MEDICAL reason, whereas people with maybe one wonky tooth, or an overbite in your case will have to pay as it is for a COSMETIC reason.
Reply:it should be free if u have been refered or recomended by ur dentist or orthodontist
Reply:The NHS probably only give them, for free, to people who are in dire need.. so if they're not exactly necessary they'll avoid providing a costly treatment.. :)
Reply:as funds cannot strech far they have to give the worst cases the funding but would u rather have an overbite and have 2 pay for braces or have incredible crooked teeth till u manage 2 get them 4 free
