How long does it take to see a difference in my teeth from braces?

im getting braces this month in 23 days on july 24th. on the top and bottom. and i want to know how long it takes to see a difference in your teeth after they are applied. on the top i have a large space in my two front teeth other wise they are pretty straight. on the bottom i have straight teeth except for like 3 of them that are slightley turned sideways but there not that bad. i didnt have any teeth extracted and i have all my grown up teeth in so how long before i start to see a difference in the gap????

It is amazing how fast some teeth move. I've seen it first hand over the years. The problem is not how fast they move, but how long they let the braces stay on your teeth. You need to let the bone rebuild around the teeth after the movement takes place. This is critical for avoiding bone loss problems later on and relapse. Adult orthodontics requires longer than adolescence because the bone is more dense. The gap in your front teeth can repair itself, but be warned if they don't remove the sometimes large papilla between the two front teeth, it can push it right back out. Ask them if you will need that tissue removed. Its either that or a small wire can be placed behind your 2 front teeth just like what they put on the lower ones. Good luck. Don't forget to take some Ibuprofen prior to and after your first appointment...You will have soreness.

Reply:You'll see a difference in about 2 weeks or so. It will probably be a difference that only you notice, but you will : ) Good Luck and Congrats on your new braces.
Reply:I had pretty great teeth to start with, but I started to notice my overbite gone after about 1.5 years. I noticed my bottom teeth start to straighten in a few months.





I think it depends on your problems and the extremities of them.
