Candidacy for AcceleDent
AcceleDent is a versatile device that can benefit many orthodontic patients, but it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. Here are some factors that influence candidacy for AcceleDent:
- Current Orthodontic Treatment: AcceleDent works effectively alongside traditional braces treatment and clear aligners like Invisalign.
- Complexity of Case: While AcceleDent can accelerate most orthodontic cases, the complexity of your treatment plan will be considered. For example, complex cases involving significant jaw corrections might not be candidates.
- Overall Oral Health: Healthy teeth and gums are essential for successful orthodontic treatment. If you have any underlying dental issues, your dentist or orthodontist will address them before recommending AcceleDent.
- Patient Compliance: AcceleDent, as an adjunctive therapy, requires consistent use for optimal results. If you have difficulty adhering to a daily wear schedule, it might not be a suitable option. Use the device only as directed.
How Does AcceleDent Work?
Custom Mouthpiece
Dr. Grussmark will take impressions of your teeth to create a comfortable and secure mouthpiece while you wear braces or aligners. This ensures optimal contact between the mouthpiece and your teeth, maximizing the effectiveness of the micropulse.
SoftPulse Technology®
The core of AcceleDent lies in Soft Pulse Technology®. This technology delivers gentle micro pulses, essentially low-level vibrations, through the mouthpiece to your teeth and surrounding bone. These micro pulses are specifically calibrated to be much weaker than the forces involved in regular chewing, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience.
Mimicking Natural Forces
The key to SoftPulse Technology® lies in its ability to mimic the gentle pressure exerted during natural chewing. Orthodontic treatment works by applying controlled pressure to teeth, gradually moving them into their desired positions. SoftPulse Technology® is believed to supplement this process with similar, low-level pressure in the form of micro pulses.
Cellular Stimulation
Micro pulses stimulate cellular activity within the bone surrounding your teeth. This stimulation may play a role in accelerating the bone remodeling process. Bone remodeling is a natural process where your body continuously breaks down and rebuilds bone tissue. By stimulating cellular activity, AcceleDent may help your body remodel bone more efficiently, allowing your teeth to move through the bone more quickly and effectively.
Accelerated Tooth Movement
The ultimate goal of AcceleDent is to facilitate faster bone remodeling. By stimulating cellular activity and promoting faster bone remodeling, AcceleDent may help your teeth move into their desired positions more efficiently. This translates to potentially achieving your desired smile faster than traditional orthodontic treatment alone.
Frequently Asked Questions
