Do Adults Have to Wear Braces Longer?

Though adult teeth are often more stubborn to move (stronger bone density and lack of growth factors), braces treatments don’t necessarily take longer for adults than they do for children. For the most part, advances in dental technology are allowing adults to complete their treatments in shorter amounts of time. Instead of 2-3 years, many patients are completing their treatment in a short 18 months. Some treatments can take as little as 6-12 months. It all depends on the severity of your case.

What Are My Orthodontic Options?
