THREE
ADVANTAGES(優點)
- More bone is produced around teeth than before
ortho case started.
This leads to the most beneficial result – greater stability than traditional orthodontics. - Increase in bone mass allows for subtle
improvements in facial appearance and profile. - Three (3) to eight (8)
months is the time for a typical orthodontic case completion.
The following benefits
are unique to these procedures:
- faster tooth movement
- most orthodontic cases can be treated 3 to 4 times faster!
- improved periodontal support, both gum and bone support for the teeth
- improved stability of the orthodontic correction
- reduction of root resorption sometimes seen in adult orthodontic therapy
- tooth movement is less painful
Because of the dense nature of bone, it changes very slowly. By performing a minor periodontal
procedure, the dense bone is softened which accelerates the process. The softened bone then allows the teeth to move to their new position more quickly. Braces and specialized Wilckodontics appliances are required to move the teeth. Once in
position, the teeth are held in place while the bone hardens around them.
During this procedure, a few small incisions are made, and an antibiotic saturated bone-grafting material is placed under the gums. The graft is placed over the areas where the bone needs to be softened. This allows for easy tooth movement. The
newly formed supporting bone will aid in holding the straightened teeth.
Wilckodontics combines two major philosophies of orthodontics. The mechanical nature referring to the brackets and wires,
and the biological/augmentative nature referring to the bone and gums around the teeth. The amalgamation of these philosophies has resulted in a new orthodontic treatment name the Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics™ (AOO™) procedure
