Want to shave months off of your Invisalign<\/a> treatment timeline? Whether it\u2019s because you have a special event, like a wedding, in your near future or because you simply don\u2019t want to wait any longer than you need to for your dream smile, there is <\/em>a way. Keep reading to learn a few insider tips for speeding up your time with braces!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

#1. Ask About AcceleDent<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

AcceleDent is a system that is designed to help your teeth move quicker by distributing micro pulses. Essentially, this stimulates blood flow and enhances the rate at which the jawbone remodels. Therefore, the addition of AcceleDent to your treatment plan can help you finish your treatment much more quickly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#2. Wear Your Aligners for 22 Hours a Day<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The recommended wear time for Invisalign is 20-22 hours a day. However, the more often you wear them, the better. That\u2019s because your teeth are only getting the pressure they need to move into their new and improved positions when your aligners are in. So, committing to wearing them for 22 hours a day can make a big difference in helping your teeth track properly, which can prevent re-treatments that add weeks or months to your initial timeline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#3. Change Your Trays on the Correct Days<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Depending on the specifications of your treatment, you may change your aligners every 7, 10, or 14 days. You should NOT attempt to speed up the process by changing them sooner than your orthodontist recommends. Doing so can cause you to fall off-track, potentially requiring you to invest more time and money in Invisalign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#4. Clean Your Teeth (and Your Trays!) After Each Meal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Throughout your entire time with clear aligners, you should remain committed to cleaning both your teeth and your trays after each meal. This is an essential part of preventing serious dental problems, like tooth decay and gum disease. If either of these arise, your treatment will need to be put on hold until they are addressed. The good news is that the below best practices can help prevent that from happening:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
