My dd is 12 and the poor thing has my teeth that I had at her age - really wonky with the two front teeth overlapping. I have looked online and it says that NHS treatment is only available if there is a clinical, not cosmetic need, so I'm guessing she will not qualify if it's just because they don't look very nice?
Feel really bad about potentially packing her off into adulthood with teeth like that, and I wouldn't be able to afford to pay privately as I'm a single parent earning not very much money :(
Are there any other options?
