Is it possible for you to have braces less the amount of time told by the orthod!
Question: Is it possible for you to have braces less the amount of time told by the orthodontist?
Answers:
Maybe, maybe not. Short answer: don’t get your hopes up.
If you just have normal, everyday school-kid braces, then the answer is probably no. It depends on too many factors, but if you are one of the lucky ones who gets some additional “toys” along with your braces, then you can probably speed things up.
Wearing elastics, headgear, whatever they give you, for longer than prescribed, will speed things up.
I knew a girl once who wanted her braces off before senior prom, and asked the ortho if there was any way to speed up her braces – he tightened her up until her face looked like a raisin, and strapped on a headgear. She wore that thing religiously and she succeeded, getting a brace-less smile a couple of weeks before prom. BUT this is the exception rather than the rule. If you are worried about speed and not comfort, speak to your ortho about possibilities.
But the real answer is: don’t worry about it. Wearing braces ain’t that bad, in fact, it can be quite enjoyable, so just relax, go with the flow, and don’t stress about it too much.
thousands of hours (and seemingly hundreds of years) in orthodontists chairs.
it is possible! if you never had a brace off. like if one of your braces get off by accident they have to start over and put you another one. it also depends on how badly you need braces
If you follow all the instructions form your orthodontist they may come off sooner.
