You don't: Depending on the severity of the dental condition your orthodontist is treating, treatment may last from months to years. The best thing to do is ask your orthodontist how things are progressing when you return for your recall appointments. He or she should be able to give you some idea. Hang in there !

Finish Ortho Tx: The best person to speak to about when your braces will be removed is your treating orthodontic specialist. Normally, the doctor will discuss how much longer you will require the braces if your ask. Part of the finishing process is patient cooperation. If the doctor requests rubber band wear, you must follow the directions.
