HOW ACCELEDENT® WORKS
[accordion_shortcode class=”myClass” title=””]
[accordion_content title=”How does AcceleDent work?”]
AcceleDent’s SoftPulse Technology® releases a safe, e ective and gentle pulsation that transmits through the roots of your teeth to the surrounding bone socket. This helps accelerate the cellular response and speeds the rate with which your teeth can move. When used in conjunction with orthodontics, AcceleDent has been clinically proven to move teeth up to 50% faster.[/accordion_content]
[accordion_content title=”Is AcceleDent safe?”]
Yes. AcceleDent with SoftPulse Technology has been demonstrated to be safe and reliable in U.S. clinical trials.

[accordion_content title=”How is my orthodontic treatment accelerated?”]
Your orthodontics work on their own by moving your teeth in specific directions. AcceleDent accelerates this process with SoftPulse Technology to generate small vibrations, or micropulses to enhance the movements directed by your orthodontist and allow for faster tooth movement.
