8-12 months for Phase 1 treatment which includes braces on top and expanders inside (to make space for permanent teeth that have yet to come in). Then we get a couple years break before Phase 2 which will be another 18-24 months of braces.
So far Miss A has been brave and positive about it all even though she has to give up sticky/chewy food (caramel, marshmallows, etc.) and popcorn. She likes to choose the colors of the elastic bands and her friends seem to think her new look is pretty cool.
