How Does AcceleDent Aura Work?
By inserting the Mouthpiece
– fitted around your existing orthodontics – and turning on the Activator for
20 minutes every day, AcceleDent Aura can speed up tooth movement by using
SoftPulse Technology™.
Faster tooth movement may decrease the duration of your orthodontic treatment
– and can even help to
make your orthodontics more comfortable.
Is AcceleDent Aura safe?
Yes. AcceleDent with SoftPulse Technology™ has been demonstrated safe and reliable in US clinical
trials.
How is the orthodontic treatment accelerated?
Your orthodontics work on their own by moving your teeth in specific directions. AcceleDent Aura uses
SoftPulse Technology™ to generate small vibrations – micropulses – enhancing the movements directed
by your orthodontics allowing for faster tooth movement.
How do I know if I am biting into the Mouthpiece correctly and with the right amount of force?
Bite pressure on the Mouthpiece should be just firm enough to hold AcceleDent Aura in place without
using your hands. Avoid biting forcibly on the Mouthpiece as that may cause excessive wear.
Can I try to wear AcceleDent Aura while I am sleeping?
No. It is not recommended that AcceleDent Aura be used while sleeping.
Can I wear my AcceleDent Aura when it is charging or connected to a computer?
No, do not wear your AcceleDent Aura when it is charging or connected to a computer.
Do I have to do the full 20 minute treatment at one time?
Yes. It is recommended that you use your AcceleDent Aura for a continuous 20 minute period each day.
If I absolutely have to interrupt the 20 minute session for a few minutes, when I turn my
AcceleDent
Aura back on, does it remember how long I used it?
Yes. AcceleDent Aura will remember how long you used it as long as the interruption does not exceed 5
minutes. After 5 minutes of being turned off, AcceleDent Aura will work for a full session of 20 minutes at
its next use.
If I use AcceleDent Aura for more than the recommended 20 minute treatment time, does it add
incremental benefit?
No. Additional daily use greater than the prescribed 20 minutes duration is not recommended.
How often does AcceleDent Aura need to be recharged?
The Activator should be recharged every 3 days.
What is the best way to clean AcceleDent Aura?
The Mouthpiece should first be disconnected from the Activator and then rinsed well with lukewarm water
after each use. You may occasionally use a soft liquid dishwashing detergent, a mild soap, or toothpaste
to gently brush the Mouthpiece. The Activator can be wiped with a soft cloth as necessary. It is
