30 Sep Orthodontics: Two Options, One Clinic

Different By Design

Dr. Don MacRae is the Canadian Master Affiliate for Fastbraces® and is proud to offer an exceptional, affordable alternative to traditional orthodontics throughout the Okanagan Valley. “Clients can get beautiful results and often with less sensitivity, in about a year … in some cases, just a few months.”

“The key and success behind Fastbraces® Technology lies in the design on the brackets. They are triangular with an elevated slot and a unique elbow design which differs from the traditional square brackets.  The shape of the bracket is critical because it literally changes the force-flexibility equation.” The square shape of traditional brackets defines the distance between the brackets; that distance determines the flexibility of the wire. However, the triangular shape of the Fastbraces® patented bracket, with its elevated slot, typically increases the distance between the individual brackets, which increases the flexibility of the wire. These fundamental differences allow treatment to be completed in about a year, or as little as 3-5 months in select cases. Fastbraces® is revolutionizing Orthodontics with a safe, fast, affordable solution!

The Clear Alternative to Braces

Dr. Jeff Krawchuk is an Invisalign Provider and is thrilled to offer clients a clear, easy alternative to traditional braces! “Being able to offer our clients two options in one clinic is great!” True Dental has the best of both in the Orthodontic world with Fastbraces® and Invisalign®! “Our clients have options and a say when it comes to the course of their treatment… we like that.”

Invisalign® takes a modern approach to straightening teeth, using a custom-made series of aligners created for you and only you. These aligner trays are made of smooth, comfortable and virtually invisible plastic that you wear over your teeth. Wearing the aligners will gradually and gently shift your teeth into place, based on the exact movements that we plan out for you. There are no metal brackets to attach and no wires to tighten. You just pop in a new set of aligners every two weeks until your treatment is complete. You’ll achieve a great smile with little interference in your daily life. The best part about the whole process is that most people won’t even know you’re straightening your teeth.
