What Are FASTBRACES®?
FASTBRACES® were developed to straighten teeth differently. FASTBRACES® are the revolutionary system of fast, safe, easy, and affordable braces that are changing the field of orthodontics. It is a complete, non-extraction system for most cases, which provides patients with outstanding results.
How Does It Work?
Traditional braces move teeth into position in two stages, usually over a period of about two years. In the first year, the crown of the tooth is moved into alignment. In the second year, treatment addresses the position of the root of the tooth. However, the brackets used with FASTBRACES work on a different mechanical principle altogether. The patented system uses an innovative triangular bracket and a specially shaped square wire to correct the position of the root of the tooth from the beginning of treatment. This combination is key in realigning the root and crown simultaneously.
How Long Is Treatment Time?
FASTBRACES Technology gently allows for movement of the roots of the teeth towards their final position from the onset of treatment, achieving root parallelism at the beginning stages, thus completing treatment from 3 months to about a year. Some patients see results in just weeks!
Are FASTBRACES Less Painful?
University research has shown that FASTBRACES Technology has low mean frictional forces, a clear-cut reduction in sliding friction and pain with fitting front and back teeth together.
Do I Have to Wear a Retainer?
With the complete alignment of the roots of the teeth, retention is needed every day for only 15 to 20 minutes (“Tooth Shampoo”). Some people like wearing the retainers at night (“Teeth Pajamas”). No more retainers for hours during the day for months after treatment. This is yet another reason why FASTBRACES Technology is changing the way orthodontics is done altogether.

Revolutionary:
FASTBRACES technology is an innovative orthodontic treatment specially designed to move teeth quickly and efficiently with gentle forces, giving beautiful, straight teeth in a matter of months—not years!
The triangular-shaped brackets, along with a super-elastic wire, create the ideal combination of gentle forces to move the teeth in a more natural way. Patients will typically start seeing results within the first few weeks and will truly experience the FASTBRACES difference.
Why choose FASTBRACES:
- FASTBRACES technology has been used successfully to treat thousands of patients.
- Studies show that FASTBRACES cause low friction and low sensitivity. In addition, there is no more risk in wearing FASTBRACES than traditional braces.
- Because FASTBRACES technology works in a different principle altogether, treatment time can be reduced, which typically results in less cost and less visits to your doctor.

What Are the Advantages of FASTBRACES?
Fast! Treatment Times Range from 3 Months to about a Year
FASTBRACES technology typically works with just one orthodontic wire from start to finish, whereas traditional braces usually require a series of wires and tightening procedures. FASTBRACES technology uses a special square, super-elastic, nickel-titanium wire which is activated by the special design of the brackets. Now treatment time can be measured in months instead of years!
Safe
Twenty years of history, thousands of consecutively treated patients, and university research have shown that FASTBRACES are not only safe, but offer many additional benefits. Patients oftentimes experience less discomfort and there are no more risks with FASTBRACES than those associated with traditional braces. Additionally, the fact that the braces are worn for less time means that there may be less chance of tooth decay due to improper oral hygiene.
Affordable
FASTBRACES technology is very affordable in most cases because treatment typically takes just a few visits at the doctor’s office. Less doctor visits mean less money spent, less gas used driving to and from the doctor’s office, and less time off school or work.
Pain Reduction
Advances in technology are rapidly changing the way braces straighten teeth, the length of time it takes, the cost, and the comfort level. Research has shown that there is less sensitivity with FASTBRACES technology.
Different by design
The FASTBRACES technology brackets have an elevated slot and a unique elbow design. The shape of the bracket is critical because it changes the force-flexibility equation. The square shape of conventional brackets defines the distance between the brackets and that distance determines the flexibility of the wire. The triangular shape of the FASTBRACES patented bracket increases the distance between the individual brackets, which increase the flexibility of the wire. Additionally, the brackets help deliver torquing and tipping forces to the root of the tooth from the beginning of treatment. These fundamental differences allow treatment to be completed from 3 months to about a year.

ASK US TODAY HOW WE CAN STRAIGHTEN YOUR TEETH IN MONTHS INSTEAD OF YEARS!
The 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 make it possible to measure treatment time in months instead of years. Some patients see results in just a few weeks! Traditional 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 is fast, safe, easy and affordable!
