they say teeth straigtening part goes pretty fast.

My top front 2 teeth slant back pretty bad and overbite is 100 %

I saw changes to my bite within days, seriously. It's a whacked out open bite now though. I had some pretty major bite issues so my ortho is tackling those first, meaning it shifts daily and I haven't been able to bite comfortably since about a week after my braces went on. I've had some pretty dramatic progress pretty fast though.

I saw changes very quick - a couple of weeks. Your teeth will probably be moved a lot over your treatment! I saw changes every time I went in for tightening.

I just got my braces 2 days ago and I have bite turbos on my 2 front teeth and not being able to chew is horrible. I am hoping my bite is corrected when I go for my next visit in 5 weeks. Is it possible for it to be corrected by then so the turbos can come off?
