The answer to this question is so individual<\/b> that no general statement can be made. In principle, however, treatment that \u201conly\u201d straightens the teeth<\/b> is completed more quickly <\/b> than<\/b> treatment that involves changing<\/b> the position of the jaws<\/b>. This is the case, for example, if your lower jaw is positioned too far \u201cback\u201d or too far \u201cforward.\u201d <\/p>\n

The better you cooperate<\/b>\u2014that is, the<\/b> more you follow your orthodontist’s instructions\u2014 the<\/b> smoother and faster<\/b> the treatment will generally go.<\/p>\n
