Hi everybody :)
I have an EXTREME skeletal overbite....I was reading abt bone remodeling and stuff from this very same website…..Does it mean that I can start to see my results in 90 days???(although I know that the braces will have to stay on for a longer period).thank u. :)

How soon results are seen will vary from person to person, but in about 3 months there should be visible changes.
Hang in there :)

Slightly different in my case as I have an overjet but I started to get measurable changes (2mm) after 8 weeks of braces, with 4 of those with elastics too. I had also seen changes with individial teeth with all my front teeth now straight! Braces move things pretty quick!
