Guests who are having trouble straightening their teeth can benefit from the treatment at almost any age

Guests who are having trouble straightening their teeth can benefit from the treatment at almost any age. The ideal time to install orthodontic appliances is between 10 and 14 years of age, the head and mouth are still developing and the teeth are more amenable to straightening. However, due to the negative effects that may affect the child due to any change in the appearance of his face during this critical stage of his life, parents should discuss the matter with their children before wearing braces. Orthodontic appliances are not just for children, the number of adults using orthodontic appliances is constantly increasing to treat minor problems and improve their smiles.


How long do I need to wear braces?


This depends on the set you treatment plan. The more complex your spacing or biting problem, and the older you are, the longer treatment will usually take. Most patients should expect to use full orthoses for a period of 18-30 months, followed by the use of an orthosis

Some patients may need to use a permanently installed device.
