AcceleDent is
a simple, removable dental device that patients place in the mouth
for twenty minutes daily. It produces a gentle vibrational
force which enhances the pressure applied by braces. AcceleDent has been
clinically proven to safely speed up orthodontic tooth movement.
The product is hands-free and allows the user flexibility to
carry out most routine tasks during use.
The AcceleDent System is currently being sold to select
orthodontic specialists in the United Kingdom, where it was
introduced last year through a limited market release program.
Approximately twenty orthodontic specialists participated in
the evaluation program, which the Company used as an important
learning experience. Mike Kaufman, VP Marketing and Business
