At Premier Orthodontics & Dental Specialists, we can give you the beautiful, straight smile you’ve always wanted sooner than before. We offer accelerated orthodontic treatments like PROPEL®.
A Fast, Gentle Way to Accelerate Your Orthodontic Treatment
We are excited to offer accelerated orthodontic treatment with PROPEL Orthodontics! If you’re interested in improving the aesthetics of your smile but are put off by the thought of having to spend months or even years in braces, PROPEL could be right for you.
This state-of-the-art technology speeds up tooth movement, and though every patient’s situation is different, many can now have their orthodontic treatment completed in less than a year
So How Does PROPEL Work?
Over the past 20 years, new treatment options have made our patients’ orthodontic experience more efficient, but not necessarily faster. That is, until now!
PROPEL works with your own biology by stimulating the bone surrounding your teeth. It helps your teeth to move faster and more predictably into their ideal position. This allows you to see your new smile faster and requires fewer visits to our office. PROPEL can be completed right here in our office and does not require any invasive surgical procedures.
In addition, PROPEL treatment entails very little discomfort. There is zero recovery time, and you will be able to return immediately to your normal daily routine.
PROPEL can be used for approximately 80% of patients receiving orthodontic treatment and can be used in conjunction with any treatment type, including TADs, clear aligners, clear braces, and conventional metal braces. To learn more, contact our office!
What to Expect With PROPEL Treatment
PROPEL is completed right in our office, with no need for a separate surgical visit or referral. During your appointment, the device is used to gently stimulate the bone surrounding your teeth, which is what allows them to move faster once your regular orthodontic treatment, whether that’s braces, clear aligners, or TADs, continues its normal course.
There’s no downtime after treatment. You’ll leave your appointment and return to your normal routine immediately, with no restrictions on eating or activity. PROPEL is available to approximately 80% of orthodontic patients, so it’s worth asking about during your evaluation whether it’s a good fit for your specific case.
