AcceleDent with Invisalign
The goal of any orthodontist is to straighten a patient's teeth, whether using traditional metal braces or Invisalign. Invisalign makes use of a series of clear and removable plastic trays that are comfortable to wear and accomplish this task while drawing minimal attention to the work being done in one's mouth. Not only does Invisalign have the aesthetic advantage of being more subtle, but Invisalign is also seen as more convenient thanks to its ability to be removed prior to brushing teeth or eating. Considering the need for commitment, Invisalign is frequently investigated as an initial option for those who qualify for it. Since most patients wish for the teeth straightening process to happen as quickly as possible, implementing AcceleDent with Invisalign can help teeth to move into their optimal positions more rapidly.
Every AcceleDent and Invisalign Case is Unique
Given that every patient's journey to a perfect smile is unique, Fruge Orthodontics works with each individual to identify their optimal tooth-straightening solution. There are several different attributes that can make or break the rapidity of the process. For example, complex dental situations that need to use various oral attachments or any additional elastics with Invisalign can cause some extra time to adjust teeth. Thankfully, these additional force makers can be utilized to accomplish a more difficult tooth movement, allowing Invisalign to remain a patient option for straightening teeth under certain circumstances. Invisalign can be further supplemented with AcceleDent.
Using AcceleDent with Invisalign
When AcceleDent is used with Invisalign, the wear time of the latter can be significantly shortened. Some patients can experience as much as a 50% reduction in treatment time; this will vary from person to person. If a person is expected to wear their Invisalign for approximately 2 years, using AcceleDent 20 minutes a day is all that's needed to shorten that treatment time by a whole year!
