How long does an adult typically have to wear braces?

I am 31 years old and planning to get braces for aligning my teeth. How long does an adult typically have to wear braces once they are placed in?

Hello, please consult with an orthodontist to determine the duration of your treatment. Typically, braces can be placed on for an average of 24 months.

Thank you for your question!
It depends on how severe your malocclusion is? It also depends on what kind of braces you get; Fastbaces can typically fix your teeth in about 150 days to maybe max if 1 year; typical braces take 1 1/2 to 2 years.
Depends on the condition, but longer than kids
With Fastbraces technology an adult can have braces in as little as 120 days.
