The time it takes to fit braces depends on the method the orthodontist uses. There are two main approaches – direct and indirect. With the indirect method, the brackets are positioned in advance in a laboratory and then bonded in the mouth using a special transfer tray. With the direct method, the orthodontist places each bracket individually during the procedure. Both methods give good results. The procedure can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours per jaw.
This answer is for general information. Your own case needs an examination by an orthodontist.
