The AcceleDent System is
currently being sold to select orthodontic specialists in the
United Kingdom, where it was introduced last year through a limited
release market program. The lightweight device, used to speed
up the rate of orthodontic treatment, is intended for 20 minutes of
daily use. Patients simply bite down on the Mouthpiece to
hold it in place, which allows freedom of the hands to engage in
other routine, daily activities during the treatment session.
Patients have reported using the device while engaged in a
variety of activities, including homework, watching television and
commuting to work. The Company has reported plans for a
general market release in the United Kingdom in September, at the
British Orthodontic
Conference in Brighton.
Mike Kaufman, VP of Marketing and Business Development for
OrthoAccel commented, “Australia and South Korea are key
international markets for us and allow us to develop product
awareness and success stories in advance of a future release in
other international markets and the United States.”
