I am pretty sure that by moving the teeth too quicky it can damage the roots of the teeth. Sometimes faster isnt always better when it comes to doing it the right way. I know that some people make exceptions for things like weddings and so on. I just find it best to follow the ortho's orders and trust that he knows best.
