Orthopulse® Near You
If you’re beginning orthodontic treatment and want a way to speed up tooth movement while reducing discomfort, OrthoPulse may be the ideal solution. At our Bellevue orthodontic office, we proudly offer OrthoPulse as a modern, convenient, and scientifically supported technology that helps patients achieve their best smiles more efficiently.
What Is OrthoPulse?
OrthoPulse® near you is an innovative device that uses low-level, near-infrared (NIR) light to stimulate the tissues surrounding your teeth gently. This light energy boosts natural cellular activity and enhances the body’s ability to remodel bone, an essential part of orthodontic tooth movement. Best of all, the device is simple to use at home for just a few minutes a day.
How OrthoPulse® Works
During orthodontic treatment, your teeth move through a biological process in which bone breaks down on one side of the tooth and rebuilds on the other. OrthoPulse supports this process by delivering targeted light energy to the gums and bone, encouraging the body to respond more quickly and efficiently to orthodontic forces.
This near-infrared light therapy also helps create more predictable tooth movement by enhancing cellular activity in the periodontal tissues.
Here’s what happens beneath the surface:
Increased Cellular Metabolism
OrthoPulse activates osteoblast and fibroblast cells responsible for bone remodeling and connective tissue repair. Increased Cellular Activity. This enhanced cell activity will allow for quicker adaptation to the orthodontic forces being applied to the teeth.
Enhanced Bone Remodeling
The NIR light enhances the regulation of bone resorption and formation, which results in an increase in the effectiveness of the movement of teeth during the orthodontic process. The movement of teeth during the orthodontic process is thus more predictable and much quicker than it would be without NIR therapy.
Reduced Inflammatory Response and Pain
By promoting blood flow, NIR therapy can reduce the inflammatory response seen in the area surrounding the tooth and gum during the orthodontic treatment process. Therefore, a great majority of patients report experiencing less discomfort following an adjustment compared to before starting NIR therapy.
Enhanced Tissue Healing
OrthoPulse® supports the healing of periodontal ligaments and surrounding tissues. By improving tissue recovery, your teeth can respond more effectively to braces or clear aligners.
