Invisalign
How long does Invisalign take? Most patients start to see improvement in just a few weeks. The average full treatment takes about a year.
During that time, all you need to do is wear your clear trays religiously. After treatment, you’ll have a perfect smile that you maintain by wearing a retainer.
With this method, you don’t have to have the dreaded “metal mouth” that comes with getting traditional braces. This makes the straightening process easier to adjust to. So whether your treatment takes six months or 18 months, you’ll be happy with your experience.
Your dentist will take an impression of your mouth. Then a series of clear trays will be made that you will wear in succession. The trays gradually shift your teeth into place.
Accelerated Orthodontics
Wearing traditional braces can take years to get your teeth perfectly straight. If you don’t have that kind of time, consider accelerated orthodontics. With this option, your dentist can use a variety of methods to move your teeth faster.
Acceledent Method
Vibration is used with this method to move your teeth faster. You use a special device for a specified amount of time every day. The device will then vibrate your teeth and the surrounding bone.
Micropulses transmit through your teeth and into the root and into the surrounding bone. This increases the cellular activity in your jaw bone. This increase in activity and healing is what improves your teeth’s ability to move faster.
Surgical Removal
Sometimes your teeth need more space to be able to move. Surgical removal creates that space, which encourages your teeth to move into the open space. Teeth naturally like to move into open spaces in your mouth, so the surgical method takes advantage of nature.
Propel Alveocenteisis Method
With this method, alveolar perforations are made in your aligners or braces to make them more efficient. This reduces the overall time it takes for them to straighten your teeth.
Don’t Wait, Get Straight Teeth Fast
The best thing to do is to talk with your dentist about how to get straight teeth fast. Everyone’s mouth and crooked teeth are slightly different. Your dentist can recommend the best course of action for your teeth, budget, and timeline.
You may also find that a combination of treatments works the best for you and your teeth. You could use Invisalign and vibration to straighten your teeth fast.
