For many people, achieving a straighter smile through orthodontic treatment has traditionally involved a lengthy process spanning several years. However, advancements in orthodontic technology have led to the development of innovative treatment options such as Fastbraces. At Summerland Dental, we offer this innovative orthodontic treatment system designed to straighten teeth in a fraction of the time compared to traditional braces.

Unlike conventional braces, which move teeth in two stages, Fastbraces utilize a unique triangular bracket and square wire design to apply gentle yet effective forces to both the crown and root of the teeth simultaneously from the beginning of treatment. This innovative approach allows Fastbraces to achieve remarkable results in a shorter time, often completing treatment in three to 12 months, depending on the individual case. With their accelerated treatment time, reduced discomfort, and comprehensive correction capabilities, Fastbraces offers patients a faster, more efficient path to a straighter, healthier smile.

The Fastbraces Treatment Process

The first step in the Fastbraces journey is an initial consultation with our orthodontic specialist in Summerland Key, FL. During this appointment, the dentist will evaluate your dental health, discuss your treatment goals, and determine if Fastbraces is the right option.

If Fastbraces is deemed suitable for your case, the dentist will create a personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs and preferences. This plan will outline the anticipated duration of treatment, the expected results, and any other relevant details.

Once the treatment plan is finalized, the dentist will use a special bonding agent to place the Fastbraces brackets onto your teeth. The brackets are strategically positioned to apply gentle yet effective forces to move the teeth into proper alignment. After the brackets are in place, the dentist will insert the square wires into them and secure them with elastic ties. These wires apply continuous pressure to the teeth, guiding them into their desired positions over time.

You will attend regular appointments with our dentist throughout treatment to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments. These appointments ensure that your Fastbraces work effectively and your treatment stays on track. Once your teeth have achieved their desired alignment, the dentist will remove the Fastbraces brackets and wires. Sometimes, a retainer may be recommended to maintain treatment results and prevent the teeth from shifting back out of alignment.

The Benefits of Fastbraces

Accelerated Treatment Time

The primary advantage of Fastbraces is their ability to straighten teeth in a fraction of the time compared to traditional braces. While conventional braces typically require two to three years of treatment, Fastbraces in Summerland Key, FL, can achieve remarkable results in several months, often as little as three to 12 months. This accelerated treatment time is made possible by Fastbraces' unique triangular bracket and square wire design, which allows for the simultaneous movement of the crowns and roots of the teeth from the beginning of treatment.

Reduced Discomfort

Fastbraces exert lower forces on the teeth than traditional braces, reducing discomfort and soreness during treatment. The gentle yet effective pressure applied by Fastbraces' innovative design minimizes the discomfort commonly associated with orthodontic treatment, allowing patients to enjoy a more comfortable experience throughout their treatment.

Streamlined Oral Hygiene

Maintaining oral hygiene is essential during orthodontic treatment to prevent cavities, gum disease, and other oral health problems. Fastbraces' streamlined design makes maintaining proper oral hygiene easier than traditional braces. Unlike traditional metal brackets and wires, which can trap food particles and plaque, Fastbraces' open design allows for easier brushing and flossing, reducing the risk of dental issues and promoting optimal oral health.

Enhanced Aesthetic Appeal

Fastbraces offer a more discreet orthodontic solution than traditional braces, making them particularly appealing to patients who are conscious of their appearance during treatment. While traditional braces are conspicuous and can draw unwanted attention, Fastbraces' clear brackets and tooth-colored wires blend in seamlessly with the natural color of the teeth, offering a more aesthetic alternative for individuals seeking a subtle orthodontic option.

Comprehensive Correction

Fastbraces can address many orthodontic issues, including crowded teeth, spaced teeth, overbites, underbites, crossbites, and open bites. Whether you're seeking minor cosmetic improvements or significant bite corrections, Fastbraces offer a comprehensive solution tailored to your unique needs and goals. By simultaneously addressing both the crowns and roots of the teeth, Fastbraces can achieve optimal results and help you accomplish the smile of your dreams.

Minimal Maintenance

Unlike traditional braces, requiring frequent adjustments and tightening appointments, Fastbraces involve minimal maintenance throughout treatment. Once the brackets and wires are in place, patients must follow the dentist's instructions and attend periodic check-up appointments to monitor their progress. This streamlined approach to orthodontic treatment allows for greater convenience and flexibility, allowing patients to focus on enjoying their newfound confidence and improved oral health.

Fastbraces represent a revolutionary approach to orthodontic treatment, offering patients a faster, more efficient, and more comfortable way to achieve a straighter smile.
