$5,000
I plan to get my overbite corrected as well as some overcrowded teeth on my lower jaw. Once all the work has been completed I will also be replacing my two crowms with ones that are more asthetically pleasing, not the NHS ones that I still nhave to this day. I have just begun the process and got my molds taken yesterday. It's weird procedure but not at all unpleasant. My dentist has told me that I pose a unique challenge as my jaw is very slim but he is excited by that and will get back to me with some options over the coming weeks. I have to be honest I am very nervous as my teeth are always something I am conscious of, but I know this is going to be worth it. I have been given initial estimates of between 6-9 months of treatment, which I felt was quite short, but means that I will have that smile I have been waiting for sooner. I will try to post some pictures up here as soon as I can.

UPDATED FROM Gazum
Assessment has arrived
I have had my assessment back, felt like it has taken ages, but my dentist did have a 3 weeks holiday since my pictures were taken initially. I have added the before and after and wondered what people think? There is a definite change that I can see and regrading my two front teeth, which are NHS crowns, I plan to replace these with more aesthetically pleasing models.
I have also asked my dentist to speak to me and discuss number of aligners etc. as that was missing from his email.

Okay, good news, I was given two options, one of 37 trays and another of 14 trays. I have been recommended the 14 trays to get the desired results shown on my uploaded images. Afterwards I have been told with further alignments and new crowns we will be able to get the desired result I am looking for. I won't be updating for a week or so now while I wait for them to be manufactured and delivered, getting excited now.
Congratulations on taking this step for yourself. I hope you get the results you're looking for. Please keep us posted on your progress!
