Accelerated Orthodontics In Boerne, TX

To achieve the same teeth-straightening results as traditional braces in a much shorter period of time, Dr. Vo combines advanced orthodontic methods with periodontal oral surgery techniques. Traditional metal braces and other teeth-straightening appliances take a certain amount of time to move teeth primarily because of the bone tissue that surrounds the patient’s teeth. The slow but constant application of pressure that is provided by these appliances is, without a doubt, effective – but it takes time. Accelerated orthodontics speeds up the process by using periodontal oral surgery to activate the bone tissue, softening and stimulating it enough to allow the patient’s teeth to move in a much shorter period of time. Better still – the process helps to encourage the growth of new bone tissue to form a stronger foundation for the patient’s teeth.

Dr. Vo begins the accelerated orthodontics process with a consultation and a thorough examination of the patient’s teeth and mouth. This helps him to determine the best treatment plan for each individual patient, based on the severity of the misalignment. During the treatment, Dr. Vo may use advanced techniques such as mini-implants, braces, and other specialized appliances to slowly and gradually move the teeth into their correct positions. She may also use low-level laser therapy to stimulate the soft tissue around the teeth and to encourage healthy bone growth. The combination of these advanced techniques and the latest technology helps to ensure the patient’s teeth are moved into the correct positions as quickly and safely as possible.
