If you want straighter teeth without a long timeline, AcceleDent Aura can help. This small, hands-free device uses gentle micropulses to speed up orthodontic tooth movement so you can finish treatment sooner. Many patients use it with braces or Invisalign to reach the finish line faster without adding more office visits or changing their treatment plan.

Below is a clear guide to what AcceleDent Aura is, how it works, who it is for, and what to expect if you choose it at Laski OrthoSmiles.

What is AcceleDent Aura

AcceleDent Aura is a lightweight mouthpiece that you use at home for 20 minutes a day. It delivers low-force vibrations, known as SoftPulse Technology, to your teeth and supporting bone. These pulses help your bone remodel more quickly around moving teeth. Your orthodontist still directs the tooth movement with braces or aligners. AcceleDent helps your body respond more quickly to those planned movements.

How AcceleDent speeds up treatment

Orthodontic tooth movement happens because bone remodels under controlled, gentle forces. The bracket or aligner applies steady pressure. Cells in the bone remove a little bone on one side of the tooth and build bone on the other side. Micropulses from AcceleDent are designed to stimulate that cellular response. The device does not push teeth itself. It enhances how your tissues respond to the forces already prescribed by your orthodontist.

Patients like that the routine is simple. Place the mouthpiece, turn it on, and relax for 20 minutes. Read, answer email, or watch a show while it works. When the session ends, charge the device and you are done for the day.

Who is a good candidate

Most patients who are in active orthodontic treatment can use AcceleDent. It can be helpful if you want to shorten total time in braces or aligners, if your case includes a lot of space closure, rotations, or bite correction, or if you have a deadline such as a wedding or a move. Teens and adults can both benefit. For younger children in early interceptive treatment, your orthodontist will decide if it fits the plan.

AcceleDent can be paired with:

• Traditional metal or ceramic braces

• Lingual braces placed on the inside of the teeth

• Clear aligners such as Invisalign

If you have active gum disease, uncontrolled decay, or a history of jaw joint pain, your orthodontist will address those issues first and then decide on the safest timing for acceleration.

What the 20-minute routine looks like

Consistency gives the best results. Use AcceleDent once a day for 20 minutes. If you miss a session, do not stack multiple sessions in one day. Keep your regular orthodontic appointments and follow all instructions for elastics, aligner wear, and diet. Think of AcceleDent as a daily habit like brushing. Many patients set a reminder on their phone or pair the session with a predictable routine such as reading before bed.

Comfort and safety

The vibration feels like a gentle hum. Most people find it comfortable within seconds. The force that reaches your teeth is far lower than everyday chewing. Clinical use over many years has shown that the device is safe when used as directed. Because the mouthpiece is removable, you can stop it at any time if you need to swallow or take a break, then restart the session.

Will AcceleDent work with aligners

Yes. People using Invisalign often want to finish trays sooner. With AcceleDent, your orthodontist may approve a faster tray change schedule if your aligner fit and tooth tracking are excellent. You still need to wear aligners 20 to 22 hours a day. The device is a complement, not a replacement for consistent wear.

Will AcceleDent change my visits

No. You will keep your normal schedule so we can check progress and adjust forces as needed. The device does not add more in-office time. It is designed to make each stage of movement complete a little faster between visits, which can shorten your overall treatment timeline when everything else stays on track.

Care and cleaning

Rinse the mouthpiece after each session and let it air dry. Do not submerge the electronics. Use a mild soap on the mouthpiece if needed, then rinse well. Keep the charging base on a stable surface away from water. Store the device where you will see it daily so you remember to use it.

How results are measured

Success shows up in two places. First, teeth often feel ready for the next wire or aligner earlier than they would without acceleration. Second, your total time in treatment can be shorter when you pair daily use with good compliance. Your orthodontist will monitor whether tooth movement is tracking as planned and will adjust wires, elastics, or tray timing accordingly.

Comparing AcceleDent with other acceleration methods

There are other ways to encourage faster tooth movement, such as perforation techniques that stimulate bone remodeling or proprietary high-frequency vibration devices. Those options may require in-office procedures or use different force profiles. AcceleDent Aura is noninvasive, quick to learn, and easy to build into a daily routine. Your orthodontist will recommend the approach that best matches your case, comfort level, and goals.

Common questions

Does it hurt
No. You may feel a gentle vibration and normal orthodontic tenderness after adjustments, but the device itself does not cause pain.

Can I use it more than once a day
Stick to one 20-minute session daily unless your orthodontist specifically advises otherwise.

What if I have a crown or implant
Crowns move with the tooth just like natural enamel. Dental implants do not move. Your orthodontist will design your plan around any implants you have and will advise you on safe use.

Will insurance cover it
Most dental plans do not cover acceleration devices. Our team will outline costs up front and review payment options so you can decide with full information.

Is it safe for teens
Yes, when supervised and used as directed. Consistent daily use is the key to value.
