I am 24 years old and have had a bad overbite since I was a child due to sucking my thumb; I was never offered orthodontic treatment by my dentist when I was younger. Since turning 18 I have been to several dentists as I hate the appearance of my teeth. I originally requested veneers and paid over £1000 to get the imprints done. After this was done I was told that veneers would not be suitable as my overbite would need to be corrected first and I would need to get a brace. The dentist actually said it was the worst overbite she had ever seen. I have had quotes for a ‘Daemon’ brace as my job is client facing and a metal brace wouldn’t look very appropriate and have been quoted around £4000 for the treatment. My wisdom teeth have also come through and my teeth are very overcrowded and the front teeth seemed to have moved sideways and overlap. I can’t afford this. Is there anything you could suggest? Many thanks.
