How many days after you go get a Consultation do braces?

There is typically not a set number of days between a consultation and getting braces. The timeline for getting braces can vary depending on a number of factors, including the orthodontist's schedule, the patient's availability, and the complexity of the treatment plan.

In some cases, a patient may be able to get braces on the same day as their consultation. However, this is not always possible, especially if the orthodontist needs to order custom-made braces or if the patient needs to have any preliminary dental work done before the braces can be placed.

In general, patients can expect to wait a few weeks to a few months between their consultation and getting braces. During this time, the orthodontist will develop a treatment plan and order the necessary supplies. The patient may also need to have some preparatory work done, such as having their teeth cleaned or getting X-rays taken.

Once the treatment plan is in place and the patient is ready, the orthodontist will schedule an appointment to place the braces. This appointment typically takes several hours, and the patient should expect to experience some discomfort as the braces are tightened.

After the braces are placed, the patient will need to visit the orthodontist regularly for adjustments. The frequency of these visits will vary depending on the treatment plan, but patients can typically expect to come in every 4-8 weeks.
