Braces-elastics help?!

Awhile back (maybe six months ago!.!.!.) I wasn't wearing my rubber bands "religously," but off and on!. But since the appointment where my orthodontist MAJORLY scolded me, I've been wearing them constantly!. Now just last month, he changed my elastic sizes to 3mm (for the overbite, on each side,) and a 6mm to fix my midline (which is now only about 1!.5mm or less off!.) These are all smaller than the previous sizes!. How long do you think it will be until I get my braces off!? I understand that the time I have elastics for isn't exact, but this is the third time I've had my elastics sizes changed!. Just an estimate would be helpful, please!. Maybe from personal experience!? :)

And I'll have had my braces for 2 years on August 29th, and my ortho told me I would have them for about 1!.5-2 years!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
