Accelerated treatment
A fast, gentle way to accelerate your orthodontic treatment
We are excited to offer accelerated orthodontic treatment with PROPEL Orthodontics! If you’re interested in improving the aesthetics of your smile but are put off by the thought of having to spend months or even years in braces, PROPEL could be right for you.
This state-of-the-art technology speeds up tooth movement, and though every patient’s situation is different, many can now have their orthodontic treatment completed in less than a year.
So how does PROPEL work?
Over the past 20 years, new treatment options have made our patients’ orthodontic experience more efficient, but not necessarily faster. That is, until now!
PROPEL works with your own biology by stimulating the bone surrounding your teeth. It helps your teeth to move faster and more predictably into their ideal position. This allows you to see your new smile faster and requires fewer visits to our office. PROPEL can be completed right here in our office and does not require any invasive surgical procedures.
In addition, PROPEL treatment involves very little discomfort. There is zero recovery time and you will be able to return immediately to your normal daily routine.
PROPEL can be used for approximately 80% of patients receiving orthodontic treatment, and can be used in conjunction with any treatment type, including TADs, clear aligners, clear braces, and metal braces. To learn more, contact our office!
VPro5
PROPEL Orthodontics’ VPro5 delivers gentle vibrations to complement your clear aligner orthodontic treatment. Used for just five minutes per day, the VPro5 helps ensure that your aligners fit properly, making your treatment as efficient and successful as possible.
Clear aligners are maximally efficient when they’re seated correctly, meaning the aligners are gripping the teeth properly. If the aligners don’t have a good grip, your teeth will not move into their ideal positions. When teeth don’t move as planned, the length of treatment is increased.
With the VPro5, you can:
- Complete your cycles at home or on the go
- Resume normal activities after a short five minutes of wear time each day
- Be comfortable with a gradual ramp-up to full vibration frequency
- Easily interpret VPro5’s intuitive light notifications to know when your cycle is complete
To use the VPro5, simply bite down gently on the mouthpiece while wearing your aligners. There is no need to bite or clench any harder than needed to support the device. The device will slowly ramp up to full vibration and automatically shut off after the duration of treatment.
