I walked into Dr. Marvin Lagstein's office to get a consultation for Invisalign. I was completely closed to the idea of getting braces. Somehow, they convinced me to get Fast Braces and I left that day with brackets on my teeth. I was told that I would be getting the braces off within 7 to 8 months. It was actually 11 months before they came off. I wore my rubber bands all day every day just like they asked. The last month or two was basically him doing trial and error adjustments every week or two trying to find a way to place the bracket so that my teeth would move to the desired position. I wanted the braces off so bad and was moving states very soon so I finally said I was satisfied with the straightness of my teeth (at month 11) and they took them off. I feel like my front four teeth are not perfectly straight, and at a $5,700 price tag to me this is unacceptable. They shave your teeth so they move faster, but now my teeth are extremely sensitive and I've never had problems with this before. These people are more interested in making the sale.

My Experience:

Duration: 11 months

I know this doctor: 1 year
