The treatment duration with Braces depends on the irregularity of your teeth. Minor corrections can be made in a few months. More severe conditions take more time to correct properly. It may take between 1 to 2 years. Metal and ceramic Braces take the same time except that the ceramic ones are less visible. The charges depend on a number of factors like the time taken, Braces used and the experience and expertise of the Orthodontist. Don't compromise on any of these to save some money. In the long run the quality of treatment will matter the most.

Braces are meant for irregular teeth correction. Several types are available . Removable braces, functional appliance, fixed appliance, surgical orthodontics, etc. But don't go by the price. You must go by your problems. If cheaper the options the correction will not be 100%. So don't compromise on the quality and material. Good Luck!

It depends on severity of you malalignment of tooth. Mostly it takes minimum of 1 year. If you want to get the treatment to be finished early go for metal braces. If aesthetic is of concern go for ceramic.
