"name": "How long do I have to wear the aligners?",
"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "The duration of the treatment will depend on how crooked your teeth are to begin with. Some patients require as little as three months to see an improvement in the alignment of their teeth. Other patients with more complicated orthodontic issues may take 6 to 12 months to achieve the results that they are looking for. Some patients require up to 18 months to correct the alignment of their teeth. The process involves wearing a series of aligners and each of the aligners needs to be worn for approximately 2 weeks before you move on to the next aligner. Each day you need to wear your aligners for approximately 22 hours. Compliance is essential for successful results."
