Biolux OrthoPulse™
Bales Orthodontics now offers OrthoPulse®. OrthoPulse® is an established device that uses low levels of light energy to stimulate the bone surrounding the roots of teeth and facilitate tooth movement which may reduce treatment time for braces or clear aligners. OrthoPulse® is the first device of its kind cleared by the FDA for use with both braces or clear aligners
How does OrthoPulse® work?
OrthoPulse® uses well-established, low intensity near infra-red light technology to gently facilitate orthodontic tooth movement. OrthoPulse® is a self-treatment that does not require extra chair time. It is easily performed by the patient at home in just 10 minutes per day.
One of a Kind
OrthoPulse® can provide your practice with the unique opportunity to accelerate your patients’ treatment time and differentiate your practice by dedication to revolutionary orthodontic technology.
Clinically Proven
OrthoPulse® facilitates tooth movement which can lead to a reduction of orthodontic treatment time, supported by solid clinical evidence. Current orthodontic mechanics optimize the process of tooth movement, and now OrthoPulse® will allow for the optimization of the biology of tooth movement.
Self Treatment
OrthoPulse® is a self-treatment that does not require extra chair time. It is easily performed by the patient at home in as little as 10 minutes per day. Patients are happy to achieve their goal of a great smile sooner, which benefits doctor and practice.
AcceleDent™ System
Bales Orthodontics is proud to offer our patients this revolutionary new treatment which speeds orthodontic treatment. The AcceleDent™ System is a technology designed to decrease the time you are in braces or Invisalign by increasing the rate of tooth movement. Tooth movement could be increased by 40-50%. The AcceleDent™ System is light, comfortable, hands-free and can be used 20 minutes per day while engaged in a variety of daily activities including reading, watching television, listening to music and doing school work.
How does AcceleDent work?
The appliance, used daily for 20 minutes, applies patented technology to gently vibrate the teeth and surrounding bone. The microvibrations increase the rate of bone remodeling and allow the teeth to move 38-50% faster.
Why are microvibrations so important?
The rate of tooth movement greatly depends on the speed at which the bone surrounding the teeth changes. Studies have shown that orthodontic force coupled with micro vibrations, generated by the AcceleDent System, safely accelerate tooth movement.
Is AcceleDent Safe?
AcceleDent has a good safety profile, as indicated by university studies in humans. AcceleDent is considered safe and under normal conditions of use with a conventional fixed orthodontic appliance.
If it accelerates tooth movement, will it cause more discomfort?
No. AcceleDent is well tolerated and does not increase the level of discomfort associated with orthodontic treatment.
Patient Benefits
Accelerated tooth movement without compromised aesthetics
Compatible with braces or Invisalign for both adults and adolescents
Lightweight for comfort and use during daily activities
Hands-free design allows you to go about your daily activities during the 20-minute treatment. Call Dr. Bales today to find out if Acceledent is right for you.
