How long was your treatment?
It was initially forecast to be 18 months (9 months pre-surgery, 9 months after). 25 1/2 months after getting my braces I had my upper and lower jaw surgery plus genioplasty, and was told that I should be out of my braces in Jan or Feb next year (6 months post-surgery) which will make my treatment about 31 months.
Do you have to extract teeth?
I had 2 upper teeth extracted.
How old are you? 41
What kind of brace?
Ceramic uppers, metal lowers
