Talk to experienced dentist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
It's been only 3 days officially. Relax...this treatment takes time. Even after the desired results are seen,we have to continue wearing braces for couple of months more or use retainers for another 6 month after braces are removed. This is to ensure that teeth don't relapse in previous condition.

Dont worry
You will see the result but i cant say how much time it would take without seeing your teeth condition.
But if your dentist says it would get over in 6-7 months than it should close your teeth gap.
I hope i have cleared your doubt
Feel free to ask if any queries
Thank you
