Braces Treatment Duration: What to Expect - 18 to 36 Months
Typical orthodontic treatment with braces lasts 18–36 months, varying by:
- Severity of misalignment
- Patient age
- Individual response to treatment
- Compliance with appointments and care
Complex cases require longer treatment. Younger patients may see faster tooth movement due to ongoing bone growth. Regular adjustments are essential. Your orthodontist will provide a personalized timeline after initial evaluation.
