Hard to get braces nowdays...

Not for me, but my 14 year old cousin went to the dentists and asked for braces and the dentist said that nowdays orthodontists only give braces to people who REALLY need it.
His teeth definately need straightening though imo.
I also read somewhere that the number of children recieving free NHS orthodontic treatment is to be slashed.
Is anyone else having trouble getting braces or do you know anyone who is and what can you do about it?

i think the main reason for this is so that they try and keep waiting lists down. i was on a waiting list for nearly 2 years so, yeah ... it could be something like that
My dentist said I was too young and refused to give me braces. Do you get braces when you're 15, I didn't really want them but now Im older and stuff I really don't want to go around with a gommy smile (not that it's that bad but still) I WANT A HOLLYWOOD SMILE :mad:
Why can't we be like that? Don't we want people to have nice teeth....??
My i have over lapping bottem teeth and when my mouth is in like resting pose my teeth dnt touch at all.
Stupid fucking braces!!!
