Get Straighter Teeth In Record Time With Speed Braces

Do you wish you could have straighter teeth in half the time? Speed braces in Victoria could be the answer you have been searching for! These efficient braces use the latest orthodontic technology to straighten your teeth more quickly, potentially decreasing your treatment time by up to three times compared to traditional braces. 

Let's do a check-up on how speed braces work and how they can fast-track your dream smile in a matter of months!

The "SPEED"y Technology 

The secret behind this fast orthodontic treatment lies in their innovative self-ligating brackets.  Instead of the usual elastic ties that hold the archwire in place, Speed braces come with brackets with a built-in clip and a flexible and strong Super-Elastic Nickel Titanium archwire. The built-in clip keeps the wire's position stable, allowing smoother tooth movement. This seemingly minor innovation can have a major impact on the treatment process.

• Reduced Friction: Traditional elastic ties create friction between the archwire and the bracket, slowing down tooth movement. Self-ligating brackets minimize this friction, allowing teeth to move more naturally.

• Gentle, Consistent Pressure: Speed braces deliver consistent, gentle pressure on the teeth, promoting faster and more comfortable movement. This can also mean fewer adjustments and shorter appointments.

• Oral Hygiene: Without elastic ties, it’s easier to brush and floss around the brackets, making it less likely you’ll miss a spot and build up plaque. 

How Long Do Speed Braces Take?

The combination of reduced friction, consistent pressure, and advanced wire technology makes Speed Braces such an attractive option for those wanting a quicker, more comfortable orthodontic experience. While treatment times can vary from case to case, many patients find that their treatment duration is significantly shorter compared to traditional braces, with an estimated timeline ranging from 6 months to 2 years.
