FASTBRACES

Glendowie Dental Centre

😀Glendowie dental centre is offering FASTBRACES orthodontic treatment
😀Please call us on 09-5212076 or admin@glendowiedentalcentre.co.nz to arrange an appointment.

Benefits of Fastbraces:
✔Non-extraction orthodontics
✔Treatment from 3 months to about a year. Some patients see results in just weeks!
✔Lower cost
✔More comfortable than traditional braces
✔Fastbraces Technology gently allows for movement of the roots of the teeth towards their final position from the onset of treatment, achieving root parallelism at the beginning stages, thus results in fast effective treatment

Dr Gin Wong is ONE of ONLY THREE Senior Master Fastbraces provider. He helped over 150 patients. He went to Dallas two years ago to accept his Fastbraces highest distinction award. He loves his job and enjoys getting to know his patients. You are assured of a comprehensive diagnosis and plan when you visit Gin. Patients feel at ease with him and enjoy his caring, gentleness and empathy.

"I didn't expect my braces to come off so fast. I taught it will be at least a year and a half, but instead only took ten months. After a week into treatment, the braces stopped bothering me and I was able to eat most of the food I could originally eat. Jo, Lisa and Sophia were very friendly and fun to chat with. Gin was very professional. He was easy and undemanding." -B Tanner
