OrthoPulse is the new frontier of orthodontics that you can also experience at the MC20 Dental Clinic. It is a tested device that is used with brackets and aligners to facilitate tooth migration and significantly reduce the duration of orthodontic treatment. Already used in other branches of medicine, with OrthoPulse pulsed light is now also applied to odontology, using a small density of light energy that stimulates the bone around the roots of the teeth.
H2 OrthoPulse: how it works
OrthoPulse is a safe technology that uses low-intensity near-infrared light to facilitate orthodontic movement. For this reason, we can define OrthoPulse as a self-treatment that, besides being in the dental office, can continue at home every day for 10 minutes. The technology is, in fact, clinically tested, and the elegant design makes it suitable to be used anytime and anywhere without hindering the patient’s daily life.
At the base of OrthoPulse is the fact of having observed that more than 50% of the sunlight that reaches us as heat is close to infrared and stimulates cellular metabolism with regenerative and healing functions. For this reason, it is possible to use the same advantages in orthodontic and dental fields, greatly reducing orthodontic treatment time. The light, giving energy to the tissues and roots of the tooth, can shape the bone and facilitate the movement of the teeth, solving the problem of crooked teeth in a short time.
H2 The benefits of OrthoPulse
OrthoPulse is a device that uses light energy to stimulate the bone around the roots of the teeth and facilitate movement, allowing the teeth to migrate faster, especially when combined with brackets or aligners.
The safe, low-intensity light facilitates the orthodontic movement of the tooth and the treatment is carried out by the patient at home, 10 minutes a day, without any additional medical support. The advantages of this innovative technology are:
– speed: self – treatment only takes 10 minutes a day and allows the teeth to move faster by finding the correct position;
– security: the device is based on a safe and clinically proven technology, which is used in medicine for over 60 years and has over 3300 published articles;
– ease of use: the device can be used at home or outside the home, while reading or while watching TV, and does not involve changes to the patient’s daily behavior.
H2 The science behind OrthoPulse
Studies have shown that near-infrared light stimulates cellular metabolism and increase the chemical energy used by the body to heal and regenerate, as well as to reduce pain and inflammation. OrthoPulse uses that same infrared light to provide energy to the bones and tissues around the tooth, allowing the surrounding bone to remodel and the tooth to move. Not only that: the energy contained in the light generated by OrthoPulse is absorbed by the mitochondrial enzymes in the cells and converted into chemical energy ATP. It is amplified energy, which facilitates the movement of the teeth.
The result is a fast, safe, and effective orthodontic treatment that is winning over an increasing number of patients around the world.
