Braces Need to Worn From 1 to 3 Years.
Once the braces are put on, they usually remain in place for one to three years. After braces are removed, most patients will need to wear an orthodontic retainer all the time for the first six months, then only during sleep for many years.
The time required for braces varies from person to person, depending on the severity of the problem; the amount of room available; the distance the teeth must travel; the health of the teeth, gums, and supporting bone; and how closely the patient follows instructions.
