If you want to correct the spacing and overbite it isn't necessary to get a referral from your dentist. I would suggest doing some research and finding an orthodontist in your community and scheduling an appointment for a consult.
It doesn't hurt to get a second opinion. There may be a specific reason why your dentist did not feel that you need braces. Getting a second opinion from an Orthodontist will just provide you with more information as to why you should or should not pursue braces treatment. It looks like you also have some spacing on top but this may be due to uneven tooth sizes between the top and bottom teeth (tops may be smaller than average).Best of luck!Dr. Pam
