How long does it take for braces a crossbite?
The length of time it takes for braces to correct a crossbite can vary depending on the individual case. Generally, treatment can take anywhere from 12 to 24 months. In some cases, more complex crossbites may require additional time for correction.
Factors that can affect the duration of treatment include:
- The severity of the crossbite
- The age of the patient
- The patient's oral hygiene
- The patient's compliance with treatment instructions
It is important to follow the orthodontist's instructions and attend all scheduled appointments in order to ensure that treatment progresses as planned.
