Discover the benefits of Fastbraces
T
he biggest question for a child
or adult who may need braces
would probably be ‘how quickly can
I get them off?’ There are no miracle
shortcuts in orthodontics, but
Fastbraces® Technology is different
by design. Fastbraces® makes it
possible to measure treatment time
in months instead of years.
Some patients see results in just
a few weeks! The old style braces
are generally square in shape and
usually move the crown of the tooth
in the first year, and the root of the
tooth in the second year, which
requires two years of treatment
time. The patented triangular
®
bracket in the Fastbraces®
Technology gently allows for
movement of the crown and the
root of the teeth at the same
time without any extra risk for
the patient and with minimal
discomfort. It’s fast, safe, easy and
affordable! Ask today how
we can straighten your teeth
in months instead of years.
