The length of orthodontic treatment varies depending on your individual needs, but most cases typically take anywhere from 12 to 24 months.
However, some minor adjustments can be completed in as little as six months, while more complex cases might require up to three years. Our team at CityTooth customizes every treatment plan to create the best results for your unique smile.
Several factors influence the duration of your orthodontic journey:
- The Severity of Your Case — Mild spacing or crowding may take less time to correct, while significant misalignment or bite issues often require longer treatment.
- Type of Orthodontic Treatment — Traditional braces, clear aligners, and other appliances work at different paces. During your consultation, we’ll discuss the best option for your needs and timeline.
- Consistency with Care — Following your dentist’s instructions, such as wearing aligners as directed or avoiding foods that could damage braces, can help keep your treatment on track.
