Does my child

qualify for NHS treatment?

To help determine if your child is eligible for NHS funded treatment or not, our Specialist Orthodontists will assess their orthodontic requirements against the Index of Orthodontic Need (IOTN).

NHS treatment

If they have any of the following orthodontic problems, they may be eligible for treatment under the NHS:

  • Increased prominence of teeth that exceeds 6mm
  • A major crowding of teeth
  • Abnormal bites resulting in trauma
  • Functional problems caused by abnormal bites
  • Teeth that are missing or impacted

NHS funding is limited and there are currently long waiting lists to receive treatment.

What happens if we don’t qualify for NHS treatment?

If you don’t meet the criteria for NHS treatment, don’t worry. At Turret Orthodontics, we have private treatment available flexible, interest-free payment plans and finance plans to make treatment more affordable.
