I am just looking for some answers as i am getting them adjusted every 4 weeks and i have spoken to other people that have had braces and they say every 6 – 7 weeks. The 4 week adjustment time is my idea as i do not want to have them for very long, so my orthadontist said i can have them adjusted earlier. Has anyone experienced this and has the estimated time been shortened.

my braces were adjusted about every 4 weeks . i think this is about normal. sometimes i was out of town and i went up to eight weeks but that just makes it take longer to get finished at the end i went every two weeks to speed it up.
Yes, it helps. Also make sure you ALWAYS wear your retainer when your braces come off. ALWAYS! I still wear mine decades later. Best wishes.
I usually get mine done every 5-8 weeks. but lately its been shorter because I’m getting them off soon. [yesss.

but, normally people get them adusted every 6-8 weeks.
Mine about every other 2-3 months. It depends how bad you need braces.
Average adjustment time intervals are 4-6 weeks. Let your Ortho decide on the adjustment time and do it right…
I think it depends on the work being done and the person’s progress. My daughter goes every 6-8 weeks but my friends son goes every 4 weeks to the same ortho…
4 to 6 weeks
Yes, this is true. Some teeth move faster than others also.
The decision of adjustments should be decided by your orthodontist because the sucess of the alteration should be able to be detected professionally by him/her.
every month for 2 years
Every month !
well as long as you have braces you will be making dental visits every month because every month they adjust your braces
I had mine adjusted every 4 weeks. It depends on what your orthodontist recommends. I had my braces for 4 years
but it was sooo well worth it!! And Rhonda is right, ALWAYS wear your retainer, even 10 years later, my orthodontist still recommends wearing my retainers at night.
