What is the AcceleDent System?
The AcceleDent System is a new technology designed to decrease the time you are in braces or invisalign by increasing the rate of tooth movement.
The AcceleDent System is light, comfortable, hands-free and can be used 20 minutes per day while engaged in variety of daily activities including reading, watching television, listening to music and doing school work.
Patient Benefits
Accelerated tooth movement without compromised aesthetics
Compatible with braces or Invisalign for both adults and adolescents
Lightweight for comfort and use during daily activities
Hands-free design allows you to go about your daily activities during the 20 minute treatment
How does AcceleDent work?
The appliance, used daily for 20 minutes, applies patented technology to gently vibrate the teeth and surrounding bone. The microvibrations increase the rate of bone remodeling and allows the teeth to move 38-50% faster.
Why are microvibrations so important?
The rate of tooth movement greatly depends on the speed at which the bone surrounding the teeth changes. Studies have shown that orthodontic force coupled with micovibrations, generated by the AcceleDent System, safely accelerate tooth movement.
AcceleDent is a well-tolerated system and does not increase the level of discomfort associated with orthodontic treatment. Contact Wentz Orthodontics for more information on the AcceleDent System.
