Straightening teeth can be such a hassle. Wearing traditional braces can be such a difficult experience that they may just make you avoid orthodontics altogether. However, there is an alternative out there you’ll want to consider.
Invisalign makes the process of straightening teeth and fixing uneven bites easier, faster and without metal hardware. But did you know there’s something you can do to make your Invisalign treatment quicker and even more effective? Say hello to Propel Orthodontics! With these revolutionary orthodontic enhancers, you can cut the amount of time necessary to undergo orthodontic treatment, even more so compared to what Invisalign promotes.
WHAT IS INVISALIGN?
Invisalign is a cosmetic treatment designed to help individuals shift teeth without the use of metal brackets or wires. If the dentist determines you’re eligible for Invisalign, they’ll begin by taking impressions of your smile, and sending those molds to an offsite Invisalign lab, which are used to create a series of aligners. Each pair is designed to represent a different stage of your treatment. After wearing each pair in the set for a specific period of time, your teeth, whether crooked, crowded or misaligned, will be looking straighter than ever!
Invisalign takes about 6 to 12 months to complete on average, but enhancements from Propel can reduce that treatment time even further.
WHAT IS PROPEL ORTHODONTICS?
Propel Orthodontics is a system that uses specific devices to reduce the time needed for Invisalign’s completion. With the Propel VPro5 device, you can enjoy the most efficient and effective Invisalign treatment. After wearing your aligners, simply bite down on the Propel device while it vibrates. After biting down for about five minutes, you’ll be able to confirm that your aligners are fully fitted to ensure the success of your Invisalign.
Of course, Propel also includes devices like The Excellerator. This device is designed to create manual osteoperforations, also known as dental dimples, to dramatically decrease the length of treatment time. By temporarily weakening your jawbone in this way, bones are much more capable of shifting. Don’t worry, your jaw will be completely numb throughout the process, so there’s very little risk of feeling any discomfort as the dentist performs the treatment.
