Acceledent is a new device which is used to enhance tooth movement during Orthodontic treatment. Acceledent applies cyclic vibrationary forces to the teeth which in turn promotes faster bone turnover and as a result more efficient tooth movement.
An average course of treatment could be shortened by up to three months.
Acceledent has a removable mouthpiece, similar to a sports mouthguard, which applies forces directly to the teeth. The mouthpiece is placed inside the mouth and is attached to a component just outside the mouth that provides the small mechanical force to the teeth. Patients use the device once daily for 20 minutes. It can be used during Invisalign aligner or fixed appliance treatment.
