Are you seeking to address bite imperfections, teeth gaps, or alignment issues in your smile? While traditional braces remain effective, Invisalign presents a faster and less conspicuous alternative. However, waiting for your desired smile can be challenging. Fortunately, AcceleDent provides a solution to expedite your treatment process. Keep reading to explore the benefits of using this handy tool during treatment.

How AcceleDent Can Speed Up Your Invisalign Treatment

Invisalign employs clear aligners to gradually shift your teeth into their desired positions, exerting gentle pressure without causing harm. Each new set of aligners continues the progress of the previous ones, steadily advancing you towards your desired smile. While typically taking 12 to 18 months, you might consider asking your dentist about AcceleDent for a faster treatment option.

AcceleDent utilizes patented SoftPulse Technology®, delivering micropulses of vibrations precisely calibrated through your teeth and surrounding bone. These gentle vibrations enhance cellular activity, accelerating the pace of tooth movement. Consequently, you may be able to finish up your Invisalign treatment as much as 50% faster!

4 More Tips to Help You Stay On-Track with Invisalign

While AcceleDent can notably reduce treatment durations, certain patients may still experience setbacks with their Invisalign progress. This can result in additional time and expenses beyond initial expectations. However, there are several proactive measures you can take to mitigate potential delays, such as:

  • Wear your aligners –To ensure effectiveness, Invisalign aligner trays should be worn consistently for 20-22 hours daily. Despite being removable, avoid frequent removal. Only take them out for eating, drinking anything other than water, and performing your oral hygiene routine in the morning and at night.
  • Don’t use hot water – Frequently rinsing your aligner trays with lukewarm or cold water helps remove plaque and food debris. Avoid hot water, as it may distort the plastic, making the trays less effective.
  • Store your trays properly – Store your aligners in a secure, durable case when not in use. This safeguards them from damage, prevents germ buildup, and reduces the risk of misplacement.
  • Prioritize follow-up appointments – While Invisalign necessitates fewer follow-up appointments compared to traditional braces, it’s imperative to prioritize these visits. Your dentist needs to consistently monitor your progress and make any essential adjustments along the way.

Waiting for over a year to attain your dream smile can be challenging. Fortunately, with the help of AcceleDent, you can achieve your new smile sooner than you think!
