How long will my orthodontic treatment take?

The amount of time it takes to treat your smile depends on a couple of key factors:

  • What needs correction — The amount of treatment needed to correct a problem will determine how long the process takes. Different patients react to treatments differently. While it may take one patient 12 months to complete treatment, it may take another patient 18 months. Treatment times can vary depending on how quickly your body responds and how much work is needed to achieve the smile you expect and deserve.
  • You! — Your willingness to use the appliances we prescribe plays a major role in the amount of time it takes to complete your treatment. Orthodontic treatment is a commitment. The most compliant patients tend to have shorter treatment times and achieve the smile you expect and deserve quicker. It is important to take care of your orthodontic appliances to help make your treatment time shorter.

While braces may have had a bad reputation in the past, today’s orthodontic appliances make it easy to look good and feel good! Please contact our office to schedule your orthodontic consultation.
