Ive had braces for 3 months now and i feel my teeth are perfectly straight now?

Question

am i wrong or are they straight because ive only had them for 3 months

Answer 1

well ur back teeth may be crooked in the back so u never know how long did they say u need them on?

Answer 2

what happens is in the first few months your teeth straighten really obviously and then the change is less noticeable unless you take pictures throughout when you're wearing them but they're still moving and you still need your brace. and when you have your braces tightened they move quicker than when they are getting looser as you have worn them more

:D any help?

Answer 3

JACOB,

MAYBE YOUR CASE DIDN'T NEED ALOT OF TIME.

Answer 4

they might be straight but the teeth havent got a 'memory' of them yet, if you got them off now they would straight back very quickly.. it'll take time, i had mine on for about 22 months n now have perfect teeth, good luck :)

Answer 5

If ur orthodontist is really good, there's definetly the possibility that ur teeth r straight, but if u get the braces off too soon, the might not stay as straight, because teeth kinda have a memory and they will naturally wanna go back to their original posision. If u get them off make sure u wear ur retainer. Congrats on an awesome smile! =)

Answer 6

They probably are straight, but you need them on to continue making them straighter, and as a brace. If you got them off now, and did nothing, more than likley they would go back. Also, they are a base for other orthodontic things, like rubber band, exc.  

Answer 7

The shortest period of time that I've ever heard someone wearing braces was 6 months. I'd say you'll have to wear them a tad longer.
