Keep trying the orthadontists in your area - sometimes different ones will have different opinions on your teeth.

Yeah, happened to me too. I just kicked up a bit more of a fuss the second time and they put me on the NHS...

I just went to my local orthodontist my dentist had recommended. They wouldn't offer it to me for free, so I tried my sister's orthodontist (we just phoned the previous orthodontist and asked them to refer us to the new one), which was a new practice so had lots of space for new patients - which might explain why they were more lenient.
