Keep reading to find out which one may be best for you.
SureSmile Clear Braces
If you have always wanted a straight smile, you can get the results you want without the visibility or discomfort of metal braces. SureSmile uses a series of clear plastic aligners to gradually align your teeth and bite. This gives you a virtually undetectable treatment that is comfortable and convenient to accommodate your lifestyle. In as little as one year, you can have the healthy, confident smile you have always wanted using the clear choice in orthodontics.
Propel & Acceledent
Propel and Acceledent are options that have been cleared by the FDA to accelerate orthodontic treatment times. Acceledent is a special device that is placed around the braces for 20 minutes daily. During this daily application, small vibrations encourage faster movement of the tooth roots, which reduces the overall treatment time. Propel, on the other hand, is a treatment that is performed just a few times in our dental office. We apply the tool to stimulate bone movement that allows your teeth to shift around more quickly.
