Ortodoncia Propel en Houston, TX

The Propel System works by creating tiny, precise perforations in the bone tissue surrounding your teeth. This increases blood flow and cytokine activity, encouraging faster bone remodeling. The result is quicker tooth movement and a shorter orthodontic treatment period — without surgery.

No. Unlike Wilckodontics (a surgical alternative), Propel is a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment. Patients can resume normal activities immediately after their session with no downtime or recovery needed.

The Propel procedure typically takes just a few minutes at our Houston dental office. Your orthodontist will determine the best spots around your teeth to perform the treatment for optimal results.

The number of Propel sessions depends on your orthodontic needs and treatment goals. Some patients benefit from just one session, while others may require multiple visits to achieve the desired acceleration.

Approximately 80% of orthodontic patients are good candidates for Propel. It can be used alongside nearly all orthodontic treatments, including:

• Brackets metálicos tradicionales

• Brackets de cerámica

• Lingual (Incognito) braces

• Invisalign aligners

• Temporary Anchorage Devices (TADs)

If you want to speed up your orthodontic results, Propel may be right for you.

Key benefits include:

• Faster treatment time (up to 60% shorter)

• No surgery or recovery period

• Enhanced comfort and convenience

• Compatibility with most orthodontic systems

• Better smile results sooner

Yes. Propel is FDA-approved and considered safe and effective when performed by trained orthodontic professionals. The micro-perforations are minor and typically cause only minimal discomfort that subsides quickly.
