If the length of time in braces is holding you back from treatment, Wilckodontics may be for you. Using a\u00a0combination of periodontal oral surgery and traditional orthodontics, you can get the beautiful, straight\u00a0smile you\u2019ve always wanted sooner than you ever thought possible. Teeth can be moved approximately\u00a0four times faster, meaning a total treatment time of three to eight months!<\/p>\n

How does Wilckodontics work?<\/h2>\n

Wilckodontics, also known as Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics (AOO)\u2122, begins with a minimally\u00a0invasive surgical procedure, usually done under IV sedation, to create small holes at your aveolar bone\u2019s\u00a0external surface. This is the bone that contains your tooth sockets. For a short period of time, the bone\u2019s\u00a0mineral content will be decreased, allowing your braces to quickly move your teeth into their desired\u00a0positions. Your aveolar bone will heal quickly and actually become stronger than it was before the\u00a0procedure.<\/p>\n

Is Wilckodontics safe?<\/h2>\n

Quite simply- yes! The process used to demineralate bone has been used for the past 100 years in the\u00a0orthopedic field and has recently been modified to help straighten teeth. Of course, undergoing any\u00a0kind of surgery no matter how non-invasive has risks, so be sure to discuss these risks with your doctor.<\/p>\n

Is Wilckodontics right for me?<\/h2>\n

AOO can be done on people of any age as long as all your permanent teeth are present and you have a\u00a0healthy bone structure.\u00a0To learn more about Wilckodontics and to find out if you\u2019re a candidate for AOO, please contact our\u00a0office.
