Fastbraces® Short-Term Orthodontics & Clear Aligners for Ponsonby Adults

Many adult patients living and working around Ponsonby Central and Three Lamps desire straight teeth without the two-year timeline of traditional braces:

  • Patented Triangular Brackets: Fastbraces® technology gently aligns the tooth root and crown simultaneously from day one.
  • Accelerated Treatment Time: Complete your full orthodontic alignment in 3 to 12 months, requiring fewer routine adjustment visits.
  • Non-Extraction Philosophy: In the vast majority of adult cases, Fastbraces avoids the extraction of healthy permanent teeth.
  • Interest-Free Payment Plans: Weekly and fortnightly payment options via Afterpay, Q Card, and Gem Visa.

We combine artistic dental aesthetics with biocompatible restorative technology:

  • In-Chair Professional Teeth Whitening: Safely lift stubborn coffee, tea, and red wine stains up to 8 shades in a single 60-minute session.
  • Composite Bonding: Repair chipped edges, close unwanted gaps, and smooth uneven enamel in a single appointment.
  • Precision All-Ceramic Crowns: 100% metal-free custom ceramic and zirconia crowns engineered for high flexural strength and natural translucency.
  • Drill-Free Icon & Ozone Cavity Therapy: Stop early tooth decay and eliminate white spots without needles, drilling, or loss of tooth structure.
