Braces treatment varies with every patient. Average duration is usually 1 to 1.5 years. There are different types of braces available these days like metal braces, ceramic braces, lingual braces and clear aligners. The cost depends on the type of braces you finalise. However basic metal braces start from 20000 onwards.
Next Steps
You need to get a full mouth x ray OPG and a lateral cephalogram X ray to have a complete treatment plan for your case. Once these X rays are done, please visitation dentist for clinically correlating them
