1.******Ober Dental Doctor answered that generally speaking, orthodontic treatment takes about one and a half to two years. Children generally heal faster than adults, and tooth extraction treatment takes longer than treatment without tooth extraction. Complex malocclusions and deformities take longer to treat than simple malocclusions and malformations. Correction of skeletal deformities takes longer than simple dental deformities. Everyone’s situation is different and needs to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis, as well as the treatment time. After correction is completed, retainers are generally worn for about one and a half years. At present, there are many kinds of orthodontic methods. The most commonly used methods are orthodontics, surgery and cosmetic crown technology. Different orthodontic methods require different time to correct teeth:

2 Orthodontics : Orthodontics, including wire braces and invisible braces, use the power of braces to restore teeth to their normal positions to achieve the purpose of teeth correction. Generally, orthodontic treatment takes a long time. For children, it usually takes 1 and a half to 2 years, while for adults, it takes 2-3 years. After orthodontic treatment, you need to wear a retainer for a period of time to ensure the effect. .

3 Cosmetic crowns: Compared with orthodontic methods, the time required for cosmetic crowns to correct teeth is much shorter. Generally, the tooth correction process can be completed in one week, and the surgical process is also easier. The recovery period is also short. Cosmetic crown technology is a correction method specifically for adult dental problems.

4 Surgery: For some bony teeth, uneven teeth or buck teeth, surgical treatment is required for dental correction. The time required for surgical correction of teeth is relatively short, generally only a few days. It only takes a few hours, and there is a long recovery period after surgical correction of teeth.
