Most patients who enter orthodontic treatment, whether with braces or Invisalign, will most likely be in treatment for 18-30 months, with the national average being 26 months. For most patients in middle school or even high school, wearing braces for that length of time is an expected right of passage.
With the growth of Invisalign as a viable alternative to metal or fixed braces, more adults have been seeking treatment to correct a bad bite or improve their smiles for personal, professional, and even financial reasons. Studies have proven, without a doubt, that a healthy and beautiful smile improves one's ability to get a job, earn more income, and be more attractive to members of the opposite sex.
Most adults who enter into orthodontics want to get in and out of treatment as quickly as possible without sacrificing the end result. Products like “Fast Braces” or “Six Month Smiles” promise to line up your front teeth quickly but are not able to correct an overbite or other bite issues that ultimately could cause more damage to the teeth.
There is good news!
Now you do not have to sacrifice the end result of your orthodontic treatment by consenting to a “quickie” treatment with either braces or Invisalign.
A new technology has been effective in Europe for the past 3 years and is now available in the United States. It is the AcceleDent System, which works with the science of micro pulses to help speed up tooth movement.
Studies have proven that using the AcceleDent System for just 20 minutes a day could reduce orthodontic treatment time by 50 percent. Can you imagine that your orthodontic treatment, instead of taking 24 months to complete, would now be done in 12 months….without compromising your results?
Patients also report less discomfort during their treatment.
A custom-fitted mouthpiece is worn 20 minutes a day, and small micro pulses are delivered to the teeth and supporting structures. Patients can wear the device while cooking, watching TV, or even reading.
