When did you start seeing changes? I know everyone is different but just want a general view of when teeth start moving

Thanks

I saw changes (although very very slight) within the first month. Noticeable changes I saw within the first 2-3 months.

When I look back from now to day one it's like night and day. It's not a race, it's a marathon and you will get there, it just takes time. My recommendation would be to take pictures. That's how you will notice the tiny changes happening in your mouth.

:) good luck!

I noticed changes within a few weeks. Since my last adjustment (1 week) my front teeth have moved quite a bit. My ortho made some space between my front teeth that has totally closed up.

I posted a similar question a couple of months ago, after getting brace first put on, i was that desperate to see changes! I definitely saw a little change in 2 weeks, but saw a lot of change from one adjustment to the next, which was about 12 weeks or so!

At the 4 week mark things moved and then they REALLY moved. Now they've slowed down and I'm almost at 6 months.
