In general orthodontic appliances may be worn between 6 to 30 months. Our doctors will provide you with the estimated length of your treatment at your consultation appointment. Additionally, the doctors are available to provide you with updates as to the progress of your care at your regular visits. Variables affecting the duration of treatment include the age of the patient, the severity of the problem, genetics, the patient s cooperation, missed appointments and broken appliances.

In our office, Phase I treatment usually lasts 12-14 months. Phase II or full braces treatment using the Damon System may last from 12 to 16 months. In both situations, we generally see the patients every 10 weeks for their adjustment appointment.
