If you are undergoing orthodontic treatment with Dr. Catherine McLeod, we bet you would probably welcome any innovation that could reduce the time you spend wearing braces.
Our team at Embrace Orthodontics is proud to offer our patients AcceleDent, an innovative device designed to increase your rate of tooth movement as well as potentially decrease your overall treatment time.
AcceleDent is a comfortable, lightweight, hands-free device that is held between your teeth for 20 minutes a day while you undergo treatment with Dr. Catherine McLeod. Using microvibrations that help stimulate bone movement, AcceleDent complements the controlled force braces provide to help bring your teeth into ideal alignment.
AcceleDent, which is easy to use and clean, is compatible with both teen and adult patients, and allows patients to enjoy everyday activities during the 20 minutes each day. Simply press the removable mouthpiece into the activator, bite down firmly enough to hold the device in place, and turn on AcceleDent.
A study has indicated that AcceleDent is an effective treatment in safely speeding bone movement, and can even reduce the time you spend wearing braces 38 to 50 percent faster than usual.
To learn if AcceleDent is right for you, please give us a call at our convenient Bridgewater or Halifax office to schedule an initial appointment with Dr. Catherine McLeod.
