Braces treatment
I got my braces in July end, I have gap between my front teeth, the reason I went for braces. Braces are putting more pressure on my molars than my front teeth. When can I expect to see some results in my front teeth? As I don't think anything is happening to the front teeth.

Braces treatment takes place in 3 different phases.
1st phase : alignment and leveling. (Which takes about 2-3 months minimum.)
2nd phase : space closure (where all the gaps will be closed with the help of e-chain)
3rd phase. Finishing up.
Since you started your treatment in July end. You are still in phase one. Once that is complete, in 2nd phase your front teeth gap will be closed.
Not to worry because it's a gradual process of moving the teeth. The space will be closed soon. Keep smiling 😊

You started your treatment just 1-2 months back. Braces treatment takes 3-4 months before a patient can Starr seeing visible results. Be regular with tour appointments and do not worry about the results. You will start seeing the changes very soon. Hope this helps

Don't worry.
Ortho treatment is a slow gradual process.
Trust your dentist.
To cover the gap between the front teeth we are trying to push the back teeth. So that when it moves it forces the incisors also to push towards eachother, thus closing the gap.
Give it time... U will need to wait 6 months to understand the changes

Hi give it at least two months time u will see some movement happening. They use optimal force to move the teeth. So it will take time. I hope an orthodontist is treating you. (braces specialist - orthodontist).
Next Steps
Wait till the next appointment and do tell ur concerns to the orthodontist
