Is it necessary to adjust braces every month?

I want to straighten my teeth with braces. Is it necessary to adjust braces every month?

Yes.
No. Typical braces adjustment intervals are between 6 and 12 weeks. Thanks!
It depends on the style of braces. We have self-ligating braces and only need to see our patients every 10-12 weeks for most of the treatment.
Only if you want the braces to straighten your teeth.

I don't know. It depends on each individual case. Ask your dentist.
Depends on the case and cooperation. Visits may vary from 2 weeks to 3 months for observation and adjustment.
That is a normal standard for regular braces.
