Braces Treatment Timeline – What to Expect
Most orthodontic treatments follow a clear, structured process designed to achieve safe, predictable, and long-lasting results. While each case is unique, the general treatment timeline typically includes the following stages:
- Initial consultation: A comprehensive clinical examination, digital X-rays, and detailed orthodontic assessment to understand your bite and alignment needs.
- Personalized treatment planning: A customized orthodontic plan is created based on your case complexity and treatment goals.
- Braces or aligner placement: Braces are usually placed in a single visit, or clear aligners are delivered with full usage instructions.
- Regular adjustment visits: Follow-up appointments every 4 to 6 weeks to ensure proper tooth movement and treatment progress.
- Average treatment duration: Most orthodontic treatments take between 12 to 24 months, depending on case complexity and patient compliance.
- Retention phase: After braces or aligners are removed, retainers are provided to maintain your results and prevent teeth from shifting.
