I had perfect speech within a week. The first days I had difficulties pronouncing the s'es, but I adapted quickly. My ortho says that some struggle with pronounciation throughout the treatment, but I'm not sure about the probability distribution. My impression from reading aw religiously ( :lol: ) is that most people adapt to speech within a couple of weeks/months.

My experience was the same as billybob
I had my top arch wired for 3 years, 9 months, 3 weeks and 3 days with iBraces
I had my bottom arch wired for 3 years, 8 months, 1 week, and 4 days with iBraces
