Solid results
Research has shown that the results of the accelerated orthodontic treatment are just as solid as the conventional orthodontic treatment.
How does it work?
The treatment starts with the placing of brackets. After this, during a minor surgical procedure, artificial bone is placed under the gum line. With this added artificial bone, the jawbone is highly active in the first weeks after placement. As a result, there is more motion speed for your teeth to move into the planned position in a shorter time, with the aid of the bracket. After only three months your teeth are straight. The bone must still become hard and strong enough to keep the teeth in place. This also takes about three months. At the end of the bracket treatment you get a retainer to maintain the beautiful result.
* an incision in the gum is created.
* small pieces of artificial bone are slid under the gums (the higher the need to move the teeth, the more artificial bone is placed).
* The gum is then closed with small stitches (gum heals quickly, the stitches may fall out after a week).
* With the aid of the bracket, the teeth move rapidly in the direction of the newly inserted bone.
Method In the accelerated orthodontic treatment, we work according to a strict treatment protocol. We keep a close watch during the treatment process, so we can adjust quickly when needed.
Once you have decided that this treatment can be exercised by your dentist, the following happens:
* Placing the brackets on the teeth of the upper and lower jaw
* After 1 week, a check to make sure all brackets and locked in the right position
* Surgical intervention by the dentist
* The first couple of weeks there is a weekly check and (X-ray) pictures are regularly taken
* After about 3 months the teeth are straight next to each other
* After this waiting for stability 3 months
* After a total of 6-8 months, the brackets can be removed and a retainer is placed for a permanent straight and radiant smile!
