FAQ
Orthodontics: Questions, Answered
How long does orthodontic treatment take?
It depends on how much the teeth need to move. You will get an estimate for your own case at your consultation.
Is it too late to straighten my teeth as an adult?
Many adults straighten their teeth. Dr. Karmo will check your teeth and gums and explain what is possible.
Will I need a retainer afterwards?
Most people do. Teeth tend to drift back over time, and a retainer helps keep them in place.
