Accelerated orthodontics could be the right option for you if you’re looking to finish your orthodontic treatment quickly. This is a new field in dentistry that combines the use of braces with minimally invasive procedures that help promote bone growth and movement.
While this is an emerging field in dentistry, there’s some evidence that accelerated orthodontics can decrease the amount of time an individual has to wear braces. However, accelerated orthodontics is still a newer field, so it’s best to work with the team at Dental by Design to determine if accelerated orthodontics is right for you. But, for most people with minor orthodontic issues, accelerated orthodontics works well to speed up the results.

Invisalign® Braces: What Is Accelerated Orthodontics?
As general dentists and family dentists, the professionals at Dental by Design provide Invigilation braces as an option to get straighter, more uniform teeth. Invisalign braces involve the use of clear aligners that can be taken on and off, so they are an excellent alternative to metal braces that are permanent until removed.
But, if you want to spend only a few months wearing Invisalign, accelerated orthodontics could be an excellent way to speed up the process.
How Does Acceleration Work?
There are two main options for accelerated orthodontics at our dental clinic.
The first involves using the slightly more invasive PROPEL system. This procedure shapes part of the bone or gums to make it easier for the teeth to move into the correct position. This treatment does require oral surgery, but it’s the most effective way to get quick results.
AcceleDent is the other option. This system helps quicken the results of your orthodontic treatment. But, it doesn’t involve surgery. Instead, the patient wears a device that sends out micro-pulses. These pulses are used to help the teeth move faster. The patient will need to wear this device for about 20 minutes per day.
Why Should I Be Interested In Acceleration for Invisalign Braces?
The main reason to get accelerated Invisalign braces is that you can get the results you’re looking for in a much shorter time frame. Perhaps you’ve never had orthodontic treatment before, and you want to have a straighter smile. But, as an adult, going through the process of wearing braces can be long and uncomfortable.
So, while Invisalign braces already make the process that much more straightforward, accelerated orthodontic treatment speeds up the process even more. This way, you can get the smile you’re looking for in a matter of months!
Shorten Your Invisalign Braces Treatment, So You Can Show Off Your Straight Smile For:
- Pictures you want to put up on social media to show off how happy you are
- Family photos that will hang up in your home for years to come
- Hanging out at work functions when you don’t want to worry about what your teeth look like
- Anytime you want to flash your pearly whites and feel confident!
Aftercare for Acceleration Patients
Depending on the type of accelerated orthodontics you receive, the aftercare instructions will vary. If you go with the PROPEL system, you’ll need to follow post-surgery instructions, and it will take a bit longer to recover right after the treatment.
Overall, you should follow a few steps to keep your teeth in good shape:
- Don’t eat hard candy.
- Avoid eating chewy food.
- Brush and floss your teeth at least twice per day.
- Don’t clench your jaw.
- See your dentist often to assess the status of your teeth.
With these tips and help from the dental team at Dental by Design, your orthodontics treatment will go that much faster!
