Has anyone used fast braces? Just wondering if anyone used them for braces and the cost and their experience! Thank you!

Fast braces? This is the first time I've heard about it.. I'll wait for the experts about this.:giggle:
 
I'm certainly no expert, but I did a fair amount of research into orthodontics prior to getting Invisalign and I read time and again that any product that promotes moving your teeth faster than normal is just a gimmick because all braces have to use the laws of biology and those can't be changed.
 
My understanding is that basically, they move the "social 6" front teeth. So if you have any sort of bite issues (however minor), or need more than just a little bit of movement, they can do more harm than good, and the results are just purely cosmetic.
