  7. It really depends on your dentist, Id just guess and say about a year?

  8. looooong timee

  10. It looks like you mostly just have crowding so that will take about a year and a half two years at the most unless the dentist discovers that you have other teeth issues like extra teeth because if you did then they would have to extract them and then it would take a little while longer because the gap from whatever teeth or tooth they pulled out would need to be filled.

  11. at the least 1 1/2 to 2 years. sorry if your dissapointed. i have braces - they suck =[

  12. prolly 2 years. it stinx huh!? i have like a sideways mouth with an overbite but i only have to have mine on for 18 months thank gosh but it hurts really bad omg omg =[  well good luck

  13. There is no way to say for sure, every ones teeth move at a different rate, so there is no way of knowing for sure how fast or slow yours will move.  I can tell you that the younger you are, the faster your teeth will shift.  Also that if you are diligent with cleaning, keeping appointments on time, not breaking your braces and following all instructions given by your dentist or Orthodontist, then you will be in and out of them quickly.  From the look of the photo you will need some anterior movement and possibly the arch enlarged which could also take extra time.  I wish I could be more specific, but it's not possible.  Listen to your dentist and orthodontist and follow their instructions for the fastest treatment possible.  Good luck and you will love your new smile!

    Additional information:  You would probably not be a candidate for the Invisalign Orthodontic treatment.  This type of tray orthodontics is used to correct some minor to moderate needed movement.  It appears that you would need more serious movement that the tray orthodontics just could not achieve.  You would be much better off with the traditional braces since they can achieve the desired results in a shorter time frame.  You can discuss this with your orthodontist and he will be better able to explain your treatment plan and what will be best for your particular dental problem.

  14. two to three years.   one of my friends who we call sharky had teeth exactly like yours and it took him 2.5 years to get them fixed

  15. I would say at least 2 years, to 2 and a half. What's the big hurry though, you're only 13 : )
