I asked my dentist today about what could be done for my slightly overcrowded bottom teeth - basically four teeth at the front where two are being pushed forward and the others slightly behind - and she said I could get it sorted by wearing a brace for 6 months. Great I thought, until she quoted me £2700 for NHS style metal train tracks, or £3,500 for a ceramic version (so white, rather than metal). She doesn't do Invisalign and suggested that would take more like 18 months with less successful results .
I just wondered whether anyone else has had similar straightening done and whether the cost was comparable. This sounded pretty pricey to me, but having never needed dental treatment before I'm not at all clued up on how much things typically cost.
