I went to the orthodontist today hoping that they would contribute to fixing my airway and pretty bad mandibular recession, instead they took a intraoral scan and told me I need to wait 2 years and that I’ll get my braces (which I don’t want all too much) if my teeth become any less straight. Not once did they mention my airway or address my recession nor did they mention the pretty bad crowding I have on both sides of my mouth.Might just send a letter to the nhs and hopefully get booked for double jaw or Lefort

Make sure you do your research. Anything that’s in the range of 15-20k is a normal price over there. Anything less and it’s abit risky to trust the surgeon
