How long as a minimum can people wear braces for?

I’m wanting to wear braces because there’s this gap on my front teeth that’s always been bothering me even though it’s just a small gap. I don’t actually want to wear it for two years just to fix the gap though.

Answer #1

I know most people wear it a minimum of 2 years. However, for me, I only had to wear a year and a half and the orthadontist said that was one of the shortest he has ever done. But it really depends on your teeth, how much work needs to be done and on the way your doctor decides to do it.

Answer #2

Invisalign you can need for as low as 6 months. If it’s a small gap I doubt you’ll need it for that long. I’ve had my braces since may 25th and they think i’ll be getting them off in less then a year. Just speak to an orthodontist and they can figure out the best plan for you :)

Answer #3

I have braces and when I asked my orthadontist how long I will approximatly have them on for she told me that most people have them on for 18 months… Mine are working really quickly and have already dramaticly changed shape.. yet I’ve only had them on for seven months!

Answer #4

i only had mine for a year and they sucked for me kept breaking off
