Straight Front Teeth in as Little as Three to Four Months
Want a straighter smile but do not want to spend years in traditional braces or clear aligners? CFast is a fast, discreet cosmetic braces system designed specifically to straighten the "social six" front teeth that show when you smile. Get the confidence you want, faster.
The Frustration of a Long Orthodontic Journey
Many adults are unhappy with their smile because of crowded, overlapping, or gappy front teeth. But the thought of committing to 18 to 24 months of orthodontic treatment is enough to make them give up before they even start.
You might be planning for a wedding, a major career milestone, or a big family event. You want a straight smile for the photos, but you do not have two years to wait.
And while clear aligners like Invisalign are a great option, they still require discipline to wear them 22 hours a day and can take over a year to complete the full bite correction.
If you are only worried about the teeth that show when you smile, why undergo a full-mouth orthodontic overhaul?
What Is CFast Cosmetic Teeth Straightening?
CFast (Cosmetically Focused Adult Straight Teeth) is a simple, gentle, and minimally invasive treatment for adults.
Instead of correcting your entire bite — which is what takes years with traditional braces — CFast focuses solely on the front six teeth. These are the teeth that make up your smile line.
Using tooth-coloured nickel-titanium wires and clear ceramic brackets, the CFast system applies gentle pressure to move your front teeth into alignment. Because it only targets a few teeth, the treatment is significantly faster than traditional orthodontics.
Most CFast cases are completed in just three to four months.

Why Patients Choose CFast
Incredibly Fast Results
By focusing only on the front teeth, treatment times are dramatically reduced. You can have a straight smile in a fraction of the time of traditional braces.
Discreet Appearance
The clear brackets and tooth-coloured wires blend in with your natural teeth. While they are not completely invisible, they are far less noticeable than metal braces.
Gentle and Comfortable
CFast uses very light forces to move the teeth. Because the movement is focused and the distance is short, patients typically experience very little discomfort.
More Affordable
Shorter treatment times mean fewer appointments and lower overall costs compared to comprehensive orthodontic treatment like Invisalign or full metal braces.

CFast Is Not for Everyone
CFast is a fantastic solution for cosmetic alignment of the front teeth, but it is not designed to fix complex bite issues, severe crowding, or problems with your back teeth.
If you need comprehensive orthodontic correction, treatments like Invisalign or traditional full braces may be necessary. During your consultation, Dr Gilbert will give you an honest assessment of whether CFast can safely achieve your goals.
P.S. If you are worried about the cost of cosmetic braces, we can help. During your free consultation, Shaleen can walk you through our flexible payment plan options, allowing you to start your CFast treatment now and pay for it comfortably over time.
