Kind of like most everyone else, they orginally told me every 4 to 6 weeks then as I was talking it over with one of the assistants during my initial brackets and wires she said I could probably get away with 3-4 weeks...that said I jumped on the 3 weeks. So for the first 7 or 8 adjustments it was every 3 weeks...to the day (really want these off). Lots of good teeth straightening during that time. Then my ortho put the breaks on and said working on the bite is slower so he moved me out to 8 week. But it looks like I'll only be in them about a year vs. a 1 1/2 years. So maybe I did speed things up a bit. Probably different for everyone.
