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

Maximum time period involved is 18 months but usually gets treated between 10 to 12 months. Have some patience and wait for the results.
