I figure a six month ortho tune up should take... wait for it... about six months!

Seriously, six months is about the minimum for moving teeth. You can't move teeth too quickly or else the roots may have problems.

If you are trying to fast track your teeth, you want to find the best orthodontist. They may push back and say they need more time. Listen to them, even though you're impatient to get the MMA. You may have your teeth the rest of your life (if you're fortunate) so it's worth it to take more time if needed.
