Hi, The duration of space closure between the teeth depends on many factors among which the type of appliances used- fixed or removable also affects it.usually, less time is required with the fixed type compared to the removable one.I suggest you to visit your nearest orthodontist and get the treatment done according to the diagnosis after clinical and radiographic investigations.

2-3 months is too less a time. Normal treatment time is at least 1 year. Check with your dentist if it is possible in little less time
