I don't know. I guess you would have to go private as you don't have a National Health service.
I think in the UK a brace costs hundreds of pounds when bought privately.
I think cost may be the deciding factor.
Why not post some pics and we can tell you if your face needs fixing or not? :)
Yes. I had braces for 3 years between 9 and 12 years old (They were free of charge) and it's worth it definitely, my teeth are great now ;D and it avoids you being called goofy.
What dental insurance do you have?Quote:

I just want to align my teeths better. I've heard of invisaline, or something like that. a invicible braces.
It should be no more than 500 bucks. Transparent braces sounds cool.Quote:

I have a tiny bit of an overbite, people can't notice so I don't bother even dream of braces
It could get worse though. :-\ right?Quote:
