Accelerated Orthodontics Can Help You Get the Smile You Want Faster

Love Yourself, Love Your Smile

  • Dr. Monica Madan
  • October 13, 2022

The field of orthodontics is centered around helping patients obtain beautiful, healthy smiles in the best way possible. As professional orthodontists, we know first-hand how much a great smile can improve one’s self-image, confidence, and oral health. We also know how hard it is to stay patient as you wait for that perfect smile to appear. 

Most orthodontic treatment takes around 18-24 months to complete. In recent years, many orthodontists have sought to shorten treatment time by using new tools and techniques to expedite tooth movement. Beverly Hills Orthodontics’ own Dr. Monica Madan is one of these orthodontists, and accelerated orthodontics has become a staple of BHO’s offered services. 

Given that accelerated orthodontics is still a burgeoning field, many patients are unaware of what these treatments entail. If you’re new to the world of accelerated orthodontics, let this article serve as your guide, as we explore topics like:

  • The different accelerated orthodontic treatments available today
  • What makes someone a good candidate for accelerated orthodontics
  • Which accelerated orthodontics options are most recommended by the BHO team

If you have any additional questions on accelerated orthodontic treatment, the BHO team is also available to speak during an in-person or virtual consultation:

How Accelerated Orthodontic Treatments Work

Accelerated orthodontics is an umbrella term that refers to a variety of treatments and procedures that facilitate faster tooth realignment. Used in combination with fixed braces or Invisalign clear aligners, accelerated orthodontic treatments improve oral device performance by stimulating the jawbone.

What’s so important about jawbone stimulation? To answer this question, it’s important to review some basic tooth anatomy.

Every one of your teeth is embedded into your jawbone via ligaments which tether the roots of your teeth to the bone in your jaw. Strong, secure, and protected by layers of gum tissue, healthy bone and gums keep teeth firmly in place as you perform essential oral functions, such as chewing, swallowing, and speaking. Ligaments are like “shocks” in a car, they absorb the sharp bite forces and make sure teeth don’t break. These ligaments also mediate orthodontic forces on your teeth facilitating movement. Given how strong the bone is, it often takes orthodontists years to realign patients’ smiles. 

Orthodontic appliances such as braces and clear aligners move teeth via selectively applied pressure. As the appliances move your teeth, the pressure naturally causes new bone to form in the jaw. The new bone helps keep teeth securely in place as they reach perfect alignment. 

Accelerated orthodontic treatments expedite this process by influencing the jawbone to produce new bits of bone faster. In our next section, we’ll take a look at the different ways this can be accomplished.

Top Accelerated Orthodontic Options

Today, orthodontists have access to a number of accelerated orthodontic treatments, ranging from surgical procedures to patient-operated oral devices. At Beverly Hills Orthodontics, we utilize many of these treatment options when developing patient care plans. 

In broad terms, accelerated orthodontic approaches fit into two categories: minor oral surgery and oral device treatment:

Minor Oral Surgery

 

Orthodontists can use a variety of surgical procedures in conjunction with braces or Invisalign to accelerate orthodontic treatment times. Most of these procedures are minimally invasive and involve making small incisions around certain teeth to enable faster tooth movement. Other surgical procedures involve shaving the jawbone and gums to stimulate new bone growth.

These procedures are performed under local anesthesia. While they may cause mild discomfort, unpleasant symptoms should disappear within a day or two.

Oral Device Treatment

 

Accelerated orthodontic devices can significantly reduce treatment time. At Beverly Hills Orthodontics, we recommend OrthoPulse to patients that want to accelerate their orthodontic care plans. 

OrthoPulse is a patient-operated oral device that emits low levels of near-infrared light. When you position OrthoPulse on your gums, the light naturally stimulates the tooth roots and increases chemical energy. As a result, your braces or clear aligners will be able to reposition teeth more quickly. 

OrthoPulse is completely comfortable and you only need to use the device for 10 minutes a day to obtain great results. 

What Makes Someone a Good Candidate for Accelerated Orthodontics?

The first and most important requirement is that your jawbone is healthy enough for accelerated orthodontics. Both surgical procedures and oral device treatment require you to have a strong jawbone and great oral health. Generally speaking, however, if you are healthy enough for orthodontic treatment, you will likely be healthy enough for accelerated orthodontics. 

Beyond great health, other requirements include:

  • A desire for shorter treatment time
  • The self-discipline needed to follow through with treatment 
  • Availability for more frequent visits to the orthodontist

If this sounds like you, accelerated orthodontics could be a great option.

Before finding BHO, I had consultations both telling me traditional braces were my only option. I knew my case would be a bit challenging but as an adult, metal braces weren't going to work... for me, aesthetically speaking. I'm so glad I followed my instincts and gave BHO a shot! From the moment I walked in, I knew this was the place. Modern amenities with a super friendly staff explaining everything along the way - what a great first impression! I just started my treatment and can't wait to see my results! Dr. Madan and her team are legit! Don't hesitate to get the smile your deserve!read more

I recently relocated to Los Angeles and not long after being here needed to have some repair dental work done and did not know where to turn. I was given a referral to Dr. Madan and could... not be happier. I was able to receive an appointment really quickly and was advised of an immediate plan of action to get my corrective work going. Dr. Madan is extremely knowledgeable about her craft and to top it off, she has a great temperament that instantly put me at ease and made me feel like she genuinely cared. Her Beverly Hills office is vibrant, with really friendly & pleasant staff, who make you feel comfortable and bring all the right vibes! No question I would recommend Beverly Hills Orthodontics to anyone looking to have work done on their teeth and perfect their smile.read more

BHO is awesome and Dr. Monica Madan and their team are so friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. I started with some aesthetic improvements for my wedding photos and was very impressed... with the initial results. However, I had a major cross-bite that would typically require surgery to correct, which wasn’t appealing. After consultation with Monica she thought it would be possible to correct with Invisalign so we decided to proceed for the long haul. While it’s been a long time, the results have been outstanding. I wasn’t sure I would be able to be B withstand that long of the treatment and achieve these results but after seeing the progress it’s been very encouraging and motivating to stick with it. I’m likely on my last refinement and the before and after is remarkable and transformative. Their office is always bright, clean, and has a lively vibe going on. Always feel good being there and better when I leave. Couldn’t recommend them more highly enough. Monica has done a great job building this out and creating a great team and experience.read more
Matt W.
Beverly Hills Orthodontics has been a wonderful experience. The team are extremely professional and experienced. I completed my Invisalign treatment today and had enameloplasty and zoom... whitening to complete the treatment. I’m so happy with the results. Dr. Madan, Gabriel, and the rest of the team listened to my concerns, set up several check-up appointments with me to follow my progress, and provided me with refinements when my teeth were being stubborn. The office is also a great atmosphere with current music playing, friendly staff, and amazing views of Los Angeles from the dentist chair! I would highly recommend this orthodontic practice. Thank you, everyone!read more
Sophie D.
Great overall service staff was very helpful with explaining process. Would highly recommend as it was a smooth process with no surprises along the way.Would like to highlight the... multiple locations which make it easy for scheduling appointments dependent on where you live or what part of LA you will be in that day.read more
Sean M.
My son and daughter have been coming here for years! Absolutely love them.
Tarja C.
I started my Invisalign treatments here and the staff was really friendly and patient with all my concerns and questions. Love it!
Jana M.
Super great experience! Came in for my consultation around the beginning of the year with a plan in mind to have my teeth straight before graduation through Invisalign and the BHO team... completely surpassed my expectations. My USC graduation is in 2 weeks, I just got my brackets off and smile is looking awesome. Annabel and Gabriel were so welcoming, friendly, and made the experience that much better. Dr. Madan was awesome she was always around and extremely hands on, great personality! Definitely come here if you’re looking for an orthodontist!! 10/10! :)read more
Eva P.
Really great experience so far, especially compared to other ortho places where I've had treatment before. For example, my partner went to another place and doesn't hear from them for... months at a time, whereas this place uses an app to keep in touch every week.They were running a special when I signed up which took nearly $1,000 off invisalign - super helpful considering the price!!! I don't think it runs all the time so you might want to ask them - but they combined it with my dental insurance so the cost came out really affordable... less than $100/month for 12 months.Even when I needed tooth filing, attachments, and refinements across multiple visits, they were super kind and flexible to meet my very very hectic schedule definitely recommend going here!read more
