You can get braces at any age. Exact duration of your treatment will depend upon the severity of your problem. This can only be ascertained when you visit the doctor and he/she examines you. Duration of treatment can range from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type and severity of the problem. Anurag Mahale, Consultant Orthodontist, Mumbai

Hello.. For aligning your teeth and getting your dream smile braces is the treatment of choice for you. It is called as orthodontic treatment. Your age is never a concern with orthodontic treatment as you can put braces at any age. If you are concerned regarding the visibility of the braces,  we have some great options for you that would make your treatment partially or completely invisible! The time frame generally depends on the severity of your condition. Although we have some braces that would reduce the overall duration of the treatment. You need to see us only once a month for the same.
