Patients often ask orthodontist Dr Tamassios: "How long does orthodontic therapy last?"
The full length of the orthodontic procedure differs from client to client, based on the issue and the treatment method used.
For metal braces, the least possible time to wear them is as little as seven months. Yet, clients with serious teeth misalignment might be asked to have them for around 36 months. Metal braces correct misaligned teeth and spacing problems.
Clear/ceramic braces may last a bit longer than metal braces, from 12 to 36 months normally.
Clear aligners are a treatment that acts faster than braces; nevertheless, they are not ideal for severe misalignment problems. They apply pressure to all of the teeth together, in contrast with each tooth like braces do.
Lingual braces might take from 6 to 18 months to straighten mild crowding. They use much durable metal than composite braces, making them work quicker.
