How do you get straight teeth in 3 months to about a year?

Old technology braces are usually square in shape and typically move the crown of the tooth in the first year, and the root of the tooth in the second year, thus requiring two years of braces treatment.

The Patented triangular design of the braces used at Fastbraces gently allows movement of the crown and root of the teeth at the same time, thus requiring one year of treatment instead of two.

Are the new technology patented braces more comfortable than the old braces?

It seems so. University research has shown “lower sensitivity” compared to the conventional braces tested and “the lowest frictional forces.”

This may be because the patented braces used at Fastbraces typically work with just one orthodontic wire, start to finish, whereas old technology braces usually require a series of wires and tightening procedures. In addition, the wire used at Fastbraces is heat-activated and, although it applies low forces, it uprights the root of the tooth from the beginning of treatment and thus helps move the tooth safely, quickly and comfortably.

Are there any risks at Fastbraces compared to traditional braces?

No. There are no more risks of tooth or root problems than those associated with traditional braces. In fact, university research has shown very positive results. We believe this is due to the fact that at Fastbraces we move teeth with the patented braces technology gently with low forces. A special square Nickel- Titanium wire is activated by the heat of the mouth. It uprights the whole tooth in the natural mouth temperature in one stage in about a year and in some cases in just a few months.







  • Sticky foods – toffees, chewing gum, etc

  • Hard foods – boiled sweets, nuts, etc. Crunchy foods such as apples and carrots should be cut into small pieces

  • Fizzy drinks and concentrated fruit juices

  • Sweet snacks and drinks, especially between meals







  • A daily fluoride mouth-rinse can be used




There is a solution to having straighter teeth without having to wear the traditional unsightly metal braces. Known as invisible orthodontics, this type of treatment offers you the choice of wearing a clear appliance while straightening and aligning your teeth.



  1. They straighten teeth discreetly, and can be removed periodically, making them easier to fit around your hectic lifestyle.

  2. They straighten teeth much more quickly than traditional braces, starting from as little as four months.

  3. They are more comfortable than traditional braces because they use less force and modern technology.

  • Straighter teeth are healthier teeth.





In-Line® consists of a set of removable clear plastic aligners, which means the teeth are corrected and repositioned without the need for uncomfortable and unsightly metal braces. In-Line® is transparent and at the same time gently moves the teeth.

The system is suitable for patients of at least 15 years of age. Many patients also find that In-Line® treatment leads to an improvement in the maintenance of good dental hygiene and therefore an overall improvement in dental health.

How do In-Line clear aligners work?

In-Line Clear Aligners are made in Germany from a patented powerful twin layer plastic material. Each aligner moves teeth by up to 0.6mm and a series of aligners are required to gradually move teeth into their required position.


Specialised orthodontic technology is used by the technicians in the lab in Germany to accurately and safely predict tooth movement.

In cases of crowded teeth, instead of teeth needing to be removed, some Interproximal Reduction (IPR) or “slendering” of teeth can be carried out at successive visits to allow for the correct tooth movement. This is a quick and painless procedure carried out by your Dentist to a prescription sent by the lab. The IPR if required is only from 0.10mm to a maximum of 0.3mm on any tooth surface and is not noticed.

At the beginning of treatment your Dentist will give you an instruction card on how to care for your aligners and a small case to store them when removal is required. Successive appointments are then made to change to the next aligner and check if any IPR is necessary.


In-Line has successfully treated thousands of patients since 2004. It has been constantly improving the orthodontic technology over that time so that teeth can be straightened quickly and cost effectively in a safe way that is comfortable and easy to do, without anyone even noticing!






Now you're only 6 months away from the fantastic smile you've always dreamed of, with the revolutionary Cfast Treatment.

What is Cfast?

Cfast is a gentle, minimally invasive treatment for adults that uses sound orthodontic principles to straighten the upper and lower front six teeth - the 'Social Six' that make up your visible smile. Using a tooth coloured wire and clear brackets, it gently straightens your teeth to give you that healthy, beautiful smile.

How does it work?

Cfast uses special nickel - titanium wires to straighten your teeth in a controlled and predictable way. The treatment uses lighter forces than traditional orthodontics, so it is more comfortable as well as much quicker.

How can it be so much faster than traditional braces? Traditional orthodontics focus on the position of your bite, so can take years of treatment wearing metal braces. Cfast focus on just the front teeth that make up your visible smile, so treatment time is far less.

Will the teeth stay straight after treatment?

After completing the Cfast treatment, you will need to wear a retainer to support your teeth in the new position.

You can choose from different retainer options, ideally with a bonded retainer placed after the Cfast treatment.

What are the drawbacks?

Cfast is comfortable, safe and affordable. It is a cosmetic procedure and is not always suitable if specialist orthodontic treatment is required.
