THE CUTTING EDGE
Long-Distance Orthodontic Treatment with Adjunctive Light Therapy
Volume 49 : Number 12 : Page 757 : Dec 2015

During my five decades in the profession, various methods for speeding up treatment, including electrical stimulation and hormonal and chemical applications, have occasionally surfaced. None of these has gained widespread acceptance. Now gaining some traction, however, are both invasive procedures that stimulate the body's reparative process and noninvasive vibratory stimulation of the periodontal membrane.
