Accelerated Orthodontics: How Does It Work?

If you know that you need orthodontic treatment, you expect that there will be a long road ahead. Braces usually take at least two years to get the results that you want to see. In some cases, treatment time may extend to three or four years. You want a beautiful smile with properly aligned teeth, but you don’t want to wait that long. Fortunately, there have been so many innovations in the field of orthodontics that you could have your desired outcome sooner than you think. Accelerated orthodontics could be the solution for you.

Understanding Accelerated Orthodontics

This takes a combination approach to speed up your orthodontic treatment. You can expect to wear braces, but you will also have the option of using a special device that helps to decrease the length of your treatment time. With accelerated orthodontics, you could see that amazing smile in as little as half the treatment time that it would take normally. Imagine looking in the mirror and flashing those pearly whites more often in less than one year!

How Does It Work?

This treatment involves the use of a small device that patients use for 20 minutes every day in order to speed up their treatment time. The patient simply places the device between their teeth, and the device goes to work to stimulate teeth movement and bone remodeling, thus shortening the overall treatment time.

Accelerated orthodontics means you can have a set of teeth that you are proud of in a short amount of time. By choosing to correct any problems with your teeth, you are going to make it easier to have good oral health as you get older. You only have one set of permanent teeth. You need to protect them if you want them to stick around. Accelerated orthodontics can help you to reach that goal.

Is Accelerated Orthodontics the Right Choice for You?

If you are thinking about accelerated orthodontics, you need to be prepared to use the device for 20 minutes each day. You should also have realistic expectations. This technology will definitely speed up your orthodontic treatment, but it won’t transform your smile overnight. Your candidacy for accelerated orthodontics will be discussed with you in detail during your initial appointment at our office.
