Changes after 1year orthodontic t/t
Can one expect any visible changes after 1 year of orthodontic treatment for mild upper and lower jawproclination for a 12-13 year old? I am concerned as no change is visible but probably mild deterioration as both upper and lower lips have sowllen up.

Usually changes should be visible in one year. Sometimes the change is very gradual so difference may not be readily appreciable.
