Iam sixteetn years old and really feel like i need braces, my teeth aren’t just crooked but they are overcrowded and hurt when I put too much pressure on them such as when I bit into a apple, Ino i’ve left it late bu I’d really want braces on the NHS to help me with this problem, I’ve mentioned it to my dentist but he’s not paid any attention to me, please help? btw Iam 17 in december but am still going to college next year if this helps.

Q.

good afternoon dr patel,
i have really crooked teeth with gaps between them and would love to get braces to get my teeth fixed, iam 24 so i know that i’d have to pay for them myself which isn’t a problem. my only concern is that my teeth are really sensitive, that sensitive that i cant even eat ice cream or have iced drinks. would i still be able to have braces fitted? if i can do you know which braces would be best for me? and what pice am i looking at? so then i can try and get a payment plan sorted? thanks alot for your time
