Want Faster Invisalign Treatment? Here’s How!

If you want a straighter smile, there is a good chance you’re considering Invisalign. Clear and incredibly comfortable, these aligners come with a ton of amazing benefits. However, you may be wondering how you can speed up the process to achieve the results you want. Thankfully, a skilled dentist has included a few important tips to help you get the smile of your dreams in less time!

#1. Use AcceleDent

One of the best ways to complete your Invisalign treatment is by using AcceleDent. This is a special technology that not every dentist has, which helps your teeth move more efficiently. It’s a mouthpiece that is combined with your Invisalign to speed up the process by up to 50%. AcceleDent works by using soft pulse technology, sending tiny vibrations that accelerate the bone remodeling process. This makes it easier for your teeth to shift into alignment, allowing for a much swifter treatment time.

#2. Wear Your Invisalign as Instructed

In order for you to achieve the fastest alignment, you must follow your dentist’s instructions closely. This includes wearing your aligners for at least 20 to 22 hours a day. Usually, you will wear each aligner in the series for about 2 weeks before switching to the next. However, if you’re using AcceleDent, you may be able to move on to each stage quicker. Your dentist will be with you every step of the way with instructions tailored to your specific case.

#3. Clean Your Aligners

Invisalign is incredibly predictable and discreet but improper care can result in a longer treatment time and stained aligners. Bacteria and saliva can break down your aligning trays if you don’t clean them properly. Invisalign sells their own cleaning solution, but you can also use room temperature water and mild hand soap. Never use hot water because it can permanently warp the plastic, resulting in less effective and efficient straightening.

#4. Don’t Forget to Brush!

Your oral hygiene is vital if you want the fastest Invisalign treatment. Make sure that you’re brushing and flossing daily. It’s recommended to floss before putting your aligners in because lingering food debris and bacteria can damage the plastic. Plus, decay and infection caused by poor oral healthcare will only extend your treatment time because they will need to be addressed by your dentist.
