Fastbraces®
Fastbraces® is an orthodontic treatment that is specially designed to move teeth fast and efficiently with subtle forces giving straight teeth in a matter of months, not years!
What is Fastbraces®?
Fastbraces® is a comprehensive orthodontic system that is used to treat a variety of orthodontic problems. It should not be confused with cosmetic systems that only treat the upper 6 front teeth. Fastbraces® has been used to treat patients for more than 25 years and is now used in over 50 countries.
The patented triangular bracket of 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. This makes it possible to measure treatment time in months instead of years. Watch the video below for more information or visit www.fastbraces.com
