FAQs

How long does treatment usually last?

Every patient is different, so there are no set treatment times. Some conditions such as minor twisting and rotation of teeth can be corrected easily. Others, such as cases in which large gaps are closed or overbites are eliminated can take slightly longer. Often, overall treatment times for younger patients can be shortened by using special appliances other than braces while waiting for eruption of the permanent teeth.
