Well my dentist referred me to an orthodontist!.
Then I had my consultation with him a week ago and this Thursday is my diagnostic records which means they take x-rays,molds,!.!.!.etc!. of my teeth!.They need info of my teeth to know for the braces!.
Then after the diagnostic records I make an appointment to get my braces put on!.
I have to have them on top and bottom teeth for 2 or more years and then after the braces I have to wear a retainer for 2 years!.
So don't expect to just get your braces put on at the first visit!.
It takes time!.
Your dentist will most likely refer you to an orthodontist!.
Then as I said you'll have your consultation and so on!.
I am so EXCITED to get my braces though!
Finally straight teeth!
The only kind of sad part is I don't get color on my braces!.
Oh well at least I'm still getting braces!
Btw my mom and dad are going to have to pay $169 a month for my braces!.
So don't expect them to be cheap!.
They're going to be expensive with insurance or no insurance!.
We don't have dental insurance!.

I hope I helped!
God Bless!
Bye!

(Good luck with the braces)

well it might take like 2 weeks becuase they have to take a "sculputure" of your teeth and you have to have spacers so maybe like 3 weeksWww@Answer-Health@Com
