About the Procedure
Last Updated: 03.01.2021AcceleDent Optima works by inserting the mouthpiece, fitted around your existing fixed braces or clear aligners, and turning on the activator for 20 minute every day. AcceleDent Optima can speed up tooth movement by utilizing SoftPulse Technology® which applies precisely calibrated vibrations called micropulses that transmit through the roots of your teeth to the surrounding bone. This gentle vibration helps increase the cellular activity and speeds the rate in which your teeth can move. Faster tooth movement can decrease the duration of your orthodontic treatment and may help to make your orthodontics more comfortable.
The goal of AcceleDent Optima is to give patients faster and more comfortable orthodontic treatment with braces or aligners.
