There are lot of methods available to accelerate the rate of tooth movement during orthodontic treatment like corticotomy, piezocision, microperforations, lasers, etc. You should talk to your orthodontist regarding the same.

The orthodontist may have given you a realistic time estimate in relevance to your age, degree of the problem and other parameters. If still not convinced, you can always take a second opinion preferably from an orthodontist.
