Duration of braces treatment depends on severity of the malocclusion. If no teeth extraction is required treatment takes less time approx 16 months and if shorter treatments needed get self ligating braces

Hello sir. Greetings of the day. You need to visit an Orthodontist for a definitive treatment plan. You also need to get an OPG and a Lateral Cephalogram (these are extra oral xrays) done to help assist in the the treatment plan. Usually alignment of teeth takes 18 - 24 months depending upon the correction needed.
