Fastbraces® Technology allows for movement of the roots of
the teeth towards their final positions from the beginning of treatment
by torquing them from the very first appointment. Patients can now get
results often with less sensitivity, in about a year, and in some cases, just
a few months.
It has been developed and tested over the past 20 years
and is now becoming available in countries around the world .
Fastbraces® Technology is fast, safe, easy and affordable treatment.
With the patented triangular design of the braces, cutting edge
techniques and a special heat-activated wire, this new technology is
revolutionizing the field of orthodontics.
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 bracket and a specially- shaped 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.
The Fastbraces® Technology patented bracket design uses
unique, triangular shaped braces that allow for the use of just one
super-elastic nickel-titanium wire during the treatment process. This
brace technology works on an entirely different mechanical principle
altogether. Historically, old braces would move the crown of the tooth
in the first year, and the root of the tooth in the second year.
The Fastbraces® Technology helps move the crown and root
of the teeth at the same time, from the beginning of the treatment.
Patients can now get results often with less sensitivity, in about a
year, and in some instances, just 3 months.
Braces for Kids
Misaligned teeth or a dysfunctional bite can be a problem for some
children. While this can complicate their oral hygiene, the additional
pressures of being a kid can affect their day to day mood, attitude and
self-confidence. Fortunately, with the Fastbraces® Technology, children
can receive quick orthodontic treatment with minimum discomfort.
Braces for Adults
Hearing the words “you need braces” can send some people into a
battle of insecurity. You’re trying to be a grown-up, but you feel like
a teenager again. When they are wearing adult braces, some people are
afraid to speak up during a business meeting or enjoy the adventure of a
first date. As frightening as it may be, Fastbraces® Technology could
be the fastest, most affordable and best alternative for you and can
give you the advantage of a quick, permanent solution.
Fastbraces®ClearTM Fast Results, Clear Options
The new and amazing Fastbraces®ClearTM ceramic bracket offers the same advantages of moving teeth as the Fastbraces® metal brackets with the added benefit of an aesthetic and totally cosmetic solution. Available in early 2013, Fastbraces®ClearTM will dazzle you with its performance.
The force needed to overtake initial resistance to gliding (static
friction) with standard brackets (0.018″) is more than ten times greater
than when using low friction brackets

Research has shown “lower sensitivity” and greater “pain reduction” with the bracket system of Fastbraces® Technology.
Research has shown that the longer patients wear braces, the more
root resorption (tooth root shortening) they have (American Journal of
Orthodontics). University research in the same journal showed that
Fastbraces® Technology presented “even less root resorption”
than the traditional systems tested. This could be due to the fact that
it moves the whole tooth in one stage, and therefore patients don’t stay
in braces a long time.
