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.

Thank you so much to Dr. G for the best braces experience! I'm so thrilled with my new smile. Dr. G is so kind and his skills are unmatched. In just about 6 months, Dr. G provided me with an efficient, effective and really pleasant braces treatment. A huge thank you to Dr. G's wonderful staff, especially Kathy for always being so amazing and working with my schedule when booking appointments. Can't wait to come back soon for a cleaning!

Dr. G is an absolute magician. He estimated about 6 months to straighten my upper and lower teeth. After 5 months, the upper braces were off and one week later, the lowers were surprisingly off too! Dr. G is a perfectionist, and I was genuinely blown away by the final touches during the splinting session at the end of the treatment. Kathy is also delightful and very helpful in scheduling and figuring out financing.
She is funny, kind, and she tells it like it is! I always looked forward to my visits because of how warm Dr. G, Kathy, and the entire staff are, and I never had to wait long before being seen. Well worth the money and I highly recommend Dr. G to anyone considering orthodontics. It doesn't get better (or faster) than this! Thank you so much!

I would strongly suggest getting a second opinion before you proceed with Dr. Georgaklis. I met with three other orthodontists after seeing him and each one of them thought his treatment plan was, for lack of a better term, nuts. He said the only way to fix my (relatively) minor issue was with fixed braces and the removal of one of my front four bottom teeth.
Every other ortho I saw said Invisalign was a completely reasonable option and that no tooth removal was necessary. Additionally, he is not particularly nice, was aggressive, and rushed me out of his office as I tried to finish asking my questions. He also repeatedly called me a "mouth breather" (in a very condescending tone, not in a medical diagnosis way) and told me I needed to see an ENT immediately.
Although I don't regularly breathe through my mouth unless I'm sick or exercising, I did decide to see a Brigham ENT because Dr. Georgaklis really made me feel like I had a serious problem. The ENT said there was absolutely no issue with my breathing and that I am not a "mouth breather." Please proceed with caution with him.

I found Rapid Braces in 2010 via Google search while I was attending college and my Father was committed to getting my teeth aligned before graduation - no pun attended! From the initial consultation, Kathy and Dr. G were very welcoming, friendly and outwardly accommodating. I researched Dr G. and his sophisticated dental practice to correct teeth in 6 months - from some of the most severe cases to minimal work, he gets the job done well to PERFECTION.
His work is unmatched! It will be the best investment in your confidence and self-esteem and continue to be the "gift that keeps giving" because the quality of his work stands the test of time. Dr. G. is genuine and informative. Most of his patients call him (Dr G) because he makes you feel right at home and as if I was a friend. I moved to NYC after college and my smile has opened doors beyond the office.
I am beyond confident about my "Million Dollar Smile" in more ways than one because how you feel about yourself starts with you! Dr. G has provided excellent service and I travel back to Boston for touch ups and Kathy is always so amazing and helpful to help coordinate my appointment considering how high in demand Dr G's expertise is throughout Greater Boston.
I am always super excited and grateful to reconnect because I know the time and investment is always worth it. I rave about Dr G's elite dental work to all my friends and colleagues contemplating either dental care or cosmetic work. Now I'm proud to say my Mother just began her first procedure with Dr G today ( 2/23/2021) literally 10 years later after I completed my 6 month rapid braces treatment.
She'll be 60 in May and what better way to enter a new Chapter of her life than having Dr G customize the best smile and healthy teeth for her. This speaks to his commitment to help individuals and families feel good about themselves and I'll continue coming here for all my future dental needs. If you're exploring options let Rapid Braces be your final stop. Again, THANKS SO MUCH Dr G and Kathy!

At age 25 I decided to finally fix a huge insecurity - my horribly crooked teeth. I accepted that I would likely have braces on until I was 27, but knew it would be worth it. When Dr. Georgaklis told me I would be done in 6 months I couldn't believe my ears. Sure enough, I completed my bottom braces in 5 months and my top braces in 6 months. This is an amazing option if you would prefer fast results (who wouldn't?), and Kathy at the front desk was always awesome about keeping me in the loop with scheduling, especially when Covid hit and appointments had to be changed. Seriously life changing!

I have been a patient of Dr. G. for more than 10 years, and in that time he has corrected many of my issues associated with a lifetime of severe clenching from stress and anxiety. Nightly grinding and clenching has always been a problem for me, but Dr. G. gently repaired the damage with new caps and night guards that fit perfectly! His gentle manner and confidence in his ability make you feel comfortable and even during the most difficult procedures. I would highly recommend Dr. G. to be your dentist.

The best! I am so grateful to my friend who recommended Dr. G. He is very experienced talented, and have done the treatment extremely well in a short time. He did not just straightened my teeth but also reshaped them. This place is the spot for that Hollywood smile you want. Everyone was so clean and gentle with me. I can't stop looking at my smile now and I wish I found this place years ago. I highly recommend this place to everyone.

I got my braces put on the first week of July, and had them taken off the second-to-last week of December, so a little under 6 months for me. This was my second time with braces. You know the story, I didn't wear my retainer. Although my teeth didn't go back to exactly where they'd been before thankfully, I wasn't happy with my smile. I knew after my consultation that I was going to go through with this. Dr. G is truly a master of his craft.
I can't believe how quickly and nicely my teeth moved, and it barely hurt. First day after a tune-up, my teeth were sore, but nothing unbearable. I feel like a new person, and cannot stop smiling. I've switched over to Cleveland Circle Dental for all my dental needs. Thank you, Dr. G! And shout out to Kathy at the front desk for always greeting me with a smile and helping me with any appointment and insurance concerns. Also, shout out to Yubi, one of the dental assistants for always being kind and gentle with my sensitive mouth.

Before coming to Dr. Georgaklis/Rapid Braces my teeth were crooked and I embarrassed by my smile. Getting my teeth straightened was a goal of mine for several years, but as an adult I needed it done quickly. When I first met with Dr. G. he said it could be done in just 6 months. Today I had my braces removed and I'm absolutely thrilled with the results!
My teeth look beautiful! After reviewing my calendar I realized he finished in just 5 months (150 days to be exact)! Dr. G and his team are THE BEST! Super professional, experienced and friendly. For the first time in my life I'm proud of my smile! I highly recommend Dr. G!

Fantastic experience with Dr. G and his staff! Needed a new retainer after losing mine and recently moving to MA, I wasn't able to take the trek home to visit my previous orthodontist for new impressions. Kathy is the front desk secretary, and she is absolutely delightful. She realized I was terrible at taking phone calls during the day and worked with me to text me to set up appointments.
Also offered to have me break up my payment for my upper retainer into two separate payments. She's also a great, caring conversationalist! After having been without an upper retainer for about 4 months, my upper teeth have shifted slightly. Dr. G offered to mold my new retainer to help shift my teeth back into alignment! More help than I could have expected. I'll certainly return for any orthodontic treatment I may consider in the future. You won't be disappointed in the wonderful experience you'll have with Dr. G and his staff!

My experience with Dr. G was excellent. He is very professional and answered all of my doubts and questions along with the rest of Cleveland Circle Dental staff. He also provided me the qualities and expectations I was looking for. Ever since I could remember I have always been self conscious about my teeth. Whenever I was in pictures you would never see me smile.
Even out in public if I smiled I would always put my hand over my mouth or just not smile at all. This would lead to myself having issues in school and result in a lot of depression over the years. I was always thinking about what other people thought when I smiled. Dr G. is very detailed and always makes you feel better. I thought my experience with braces would not be as good, but the truth is that every time I had an appointment, I could not wait to get to the office.
His staff is excellent; they are always friendly. Dr. G is very human and always puts his shoes in his patients' shoes. My time with braces was fun. I would recommend him to all my friends who ask me who was my orthodontist. I feel very good now that everyone tells me that I have the perfect smile and beautiful teeth, it truly changed my life and I will forever be grateful. Thank you Dr. G!

Dr G. will always have a special place in my life. He brought back my smile and confidence. I had braces in India when I was a teenager. At that time I had extractions done. Since I never completed my treatment, after years, my teeth started moving with huge gaps between my front teeth. For the last ten years I have been wasting my time going to dental schools for my treatment.
Last year, I stumbled upon Dr. G's website and was amazed to see the results showcased on his site. Those actually felt too good to be true. I went for general consultation with him and started my treatment that very day. As promised, within six months my teeth were aligned. I am a different person now and I can't thank Dr. G and his staff enough.
Everyone is very professional and they try their level best to serve their patients. I wish I had not wasted all my 30s being conscious about my teeth and had met Dr G. ten years ago.
