Braces that is, orthodontic appliances, wear orthodontic appliances after 6~18 months, teeth can become neat, the specific time and the severity of malocclusion related to the teeth, to be aligned teeth, still need to wear orthodontic appliances until the alveolar bone remodeling is completed, specific as follows.
1. Orthodontic treatment utilizes the principle that the alveolar bone can be reconstructed, the alveolar bone is resorbed by the pressure side, and the alveolar bone is augmented by the tension side, so that the teeth can be moved in the alveolar bone, but moving the teeth must not be too fast, which may lead to the resorption of the alveolar bone, so it usually takes about 6~18 months, and according to the degree of the malocclusion, the more complicated the person needs a longer period of time.
2. After the teeth are aligned, the alveolar bone reconstruction is not yet stabilized, so it is necessary to prolong the time of wearing the orthodontic appliances to avoid the occurrence of tooth loosening, recurrence of malocclusion and other complications.
It is recommended to go to regular medical institutions to receive professional treatment.
