“I have never been happy with my smile because of crooked teeth. I have seen many orthodontists and they have all said 2 years. I met a man who told me this particular dentist could straighten teeth in just 6 months. While sitting in the waiting room, I looked at pictures of previous patients and said to myself, ‘this man is not an orthodontist, he is a miracle worker.’ The day my braces came off, my smile looked so magnificent I could have cried. I felt like a totally changed woman. I would have never have gotten braces if I had to wear them for 2 years. Who says you’re too old to get braces and change your life? Dr. G. You are my hero!”

How Fast Orthodontics Was Founded
Dr. Clifton Georgaklis began practicing adult Boston orthodontics and general dentistry and established Cleveland Circle Dental Associates in Brookline, MA in 1991. Today, the practice focuses on adult cosmetic orthodontics and serves the Boston area. Rapid Braces means Straight Teeth in 6 Months with Clear braces or Invisible braces, also called Lingual braces. Many now advertise our technique without really practicing 6 Month Braces, but we are the only office that is actually able to finish 90% of cases in 6 months. Our pictures really tell the story.
Dr. Georgaklis lectures to dentists and orthodontists on his novel 6 month orthodontic technique. Many come to his Brookline office from throughout the country to observe Six Month Braces. He has been featured on Channel 7 news and treated many well-known dentists as orthodontic patients. Dr Georgaklis’ Rapid Braces technique has changed how adult orthodontics is being practiced worldwide, and has spawned various popular offshoots such as “Six Month Smiles” and Fastbraces since he published his technique in Dentistry Today in 1999.
What has separated his treatment for the past 25 years from conventional orthodontics is his focus on AESTHETIC dentistry, approaching the end result like a cosmetic dentist. He gives you your BEST smile, with unique services such as tooth and gum sculpting and SMILE DESIGN, a NO RETAINER option (it’s behind teeth- even on the uppers), or free removable retainers (most charge $500 extra). Most orthodontists see 50-100 patients per day, while we see only 8-12 patients which tells you how different our personalized treatment approach is. The cost is equal or less than conventional 1 – 2 year orthodontic treatment, and he can show you quality results he has published on 6-month braces because he was the first to originate the concept in 1991. This is truly the latest frontier in Cosmetic Dentistry. There are now numerous offices copying Dr Georgaklis’ 6 Month Technique and treatment philosophy as his articles and lectures have spread throughout the US and Europe. We are confident we can give you the smile you want in less time with Rapidbraces.
“I congratulate you for your innovative and thoughtful approach to the subject. I feel certain that many more people would have orthodontic therapy if it could be simplified and made more acceptable to them as adults… You are doing a great service to educate those who have interest”

How We Do It
First we do a cleaning, any necessary fillings and address other basic dental problems. Then, the teeth are straightened in only 6 months, using clear, metal or invisible braces BEHIND THE TEETH. Part of the procedure involves sanding between teeth or sometimes removing a tooth. Very often patients also notice a more comfortable bite, less wear on crooked teeth, less food collection in between teeth and fewer gum problems in the future. The teeth are moved small distances so they stay straight! After treatment the teeth are held in place with either retainers or splinted (connected) behind the teeth so no relapse is possible. At the last visit other cosmetic treatments such as gum and tooth reshaping and bleaching can be provided for a dramatic final result. As a skilled general dentist Dr. Georgaklis has a lot of experience in these other cosmetic modalities.
