How long do docs recommend i should i have braces for?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Length of treatment: Your orthodontist can often give you an expected time frame for length of treatment based upon your age, and the severity of the malocclusion. However, when dealing with nature and individual variations, it is only an estimate and treatment may take less or more time than expected. Be patient and the wait will be well worth it. You want the best result possible.
