Hi!
Yeah, I would think so, although you may have to be in receipt of certain benefits.
If you are unsuccessful, I know some dentists offer easy payment plans.
Hope this helps!
Best of luck!

As far as i know you cant get a brace on the nhs once your over the age of 18, I'm a dental nurse and the orthodontist that we refer our patients to will charge anybody over the age of 18 privately for any ortho treatment, even some younger patients have been charged as the work they wanted was more cosmetic rather than necessary.
Try a dental teaching hospital, you may be able to get one done there.
Good luck

Doubtful considering I've had to pay £43 for a check up and I've only just turned 18 even though I'm still in education
Go private and pay it off, I know that sounds harsh, but come on don't expect the state to pay for it even if you do pay taxes, if everyone did that then where would we be
Besides even if they did there would be a very long list considering

if your in employment then you will have to pay, but if you are collecting some kind of benefit then you wont have to pay, providing your dentist agrees you need one of course.

Yes, but you have to pay.
