Our dentist has already referred my 8 year old because of the waiting lists 😬 My nearly 11 yo has been on the list since age 9 too.

Have they even lost their baby teeth yet??

To be fair my 10 year old has lost all but two of his baby teeth so the 11 year old very well could have!
I also had teeth extracted to get braces fit as a teenager myself.

Down south, quoted 4 years wait, DD would be 19, we opted private, £3,500, fitted within month of consultation. They do run a payment plan if needed.

Hello can I ask where in the south? We are Southampton and looking at finding out how long the wait is...
