Frequently Asked Questions

We have compiled a few general questions about Orthodontic Fastbraces. If you have a question, please don’t hesitate to contact our team.

What types of braces can I get at Alpha Dental & Implant Centre?

We offer a few different options, depending on what your teeth need and how visible you want them to be.

There’s the classic metal braces, which are strong and reliable. Ceramic braces do the same job, just they’re less noticeable. We also fit clear aligners like Invisalign if you’d rather skip brackets entirely. And for those who want to keep things completely hidden, lingual braces tuck in behind your teeth. Not sure what suits you best? Start with a consultation.

How does it work?

The brackets used with Fastbraces® work on a mechanical principle different from traditional braces. This revolutionary system uses an innovative triangular bracket and a specially shaped square wire to correct the tooth’s position from the beginning of treatment. This combination is key in simultaneously realigning the root and crown, significantly shortening treatment time.

When should I bring my child in for their first orthodontic check?

A good time is around age 7. That’s usually when adult teeth start coming through and we can spot if anything’s off. It doesn’t mean they’ll need braces right away—sometimes it’s just about keeping an eye on how things are developing. If something needs attention, catching it early can make treatment later simpler and shorter.

How Can You Decide if You’re a Good Candidate for Fastbraces®?

Fastbraces are an excellent option for many patients seeking to straighten their teeth. Our dentists will spend time explaining your choices and your suitability.
