While the usual time for wearing them is one to two weeks, it really depends your orthodontist's diagnosis, and what he or she believes is the right amount of time to get the desired result. The actual name for spacers is "orthodontic separators," and while they can sometimes be painful or annoying, they are known for getting excellent results.

Right now i have a spacer/Appliance and i have been wearing it since February 09 and at first i had a key to tighten it and now i have a face mask i have to wear at night so i would say at least 6 months becasue im getting my appliance off next month and in September im getting 2 other retainers on top and bottom and will be wering it till sometime next year and them getting braces but it wont hurt.

How long do spacers stay on?
DO NOT WORRY AT ALL!! spacers only stay on for 3-4 days, then come the braces. for some people spacers stay on for 1 week, depending on your dental situation...i recommend some pain relievers because the day after your spacers, it will hurt like hell!! it can also last up to 2 weeks..but that is only if your teeth are extremely crammed together.....GOOD LUCK! And once again its USUALLY ONLY A FEW DAYS!!

The bottom answer is not totally correct. You must wait at least a few weeks, preferably 3 months, before getting braces in order to let the gums and the bone heal properly before putting on braces. They can never get braces because they will irritate the damaged gums.
