Cut Your Treatment Time in Half
For many patients, the biggest hesitation about orthodontic treatment isn't the look of braces — it's the time commitment. If the thought of spending a year or more in treatment feels like a barrier, AcceleDent® Aura may be exactly what you've been waiting for.
AcceleDent® Aura is an FDA-cleared, clinically proven device that accelerates tooth movement by up to 50% — allowing patients to reach their finished smile significantly faster than with orthodontic treatment alone. Used for just 20 minutes per day alongside your existing treatment, AcceleDent® Aura is one of the most impactful additions available to patients who want results without the wait.
At Cranston Orthodontics, Dr. Cosmo offers AcceleDent® Aura as a complement to braces and clear aligner treatment for patients who qualify — helping them achieve their ideal smile in less time, with less discomfort.
What is AcceleDent® Aura
AcceleDent® Aura is a lightweight, hands-free orthodontic accelerator that uses patented SoftPulse Technology® to deliver precisely calibrated micropulses to the teeth and surrounding bone. These gentle micropulses work in coordination with the forces applied by your braces or aligners — stimulating the biological processes that allow teeth to move through bone more efficiently.
The device consists of a small activator unit and a mouthpiece that fits comfortably over your braces or aligners. Simply place it in your mouth for 20 minutes each day — while watching TV, reading, or going about your routine — and let the technology do the rest.
AcceleDent® Aura has been prescribed to thousands of patients worldwide since its introduction in 2009. It is available by prescription only and is cleared by the United States Food and Drug Administration for use as a complement to orthodontic treatment.
How Does AcceleDent® Aura Fit Into Your Treatment
AcceleDent® Aura is designed to be as simple and unobtrusive as possible — because the best tool is one you'll actually use.
Place the Mouthpiece
Insert the AcceleDent® Aura mouthpiece over your braces or aligners — it is designed to fit comfortably over either appliance.

Activate for 20 Minutes

02
Clean and Store
After each use, clean the mouthpiece as directed and store the device safely until your next session.
03
That's it. Twenty minutes per day is all it takes to potentially cut your treatment time significantly and reduce post-adjustment discomfort throughout the process.
Three Key Advantages - Fast. Gentle. Safe.
- It's fast: AcceleDent® Aura's SoftPulse Technology® delivers precisely calibrated micropulses that gently accelerate the movement of your teeth as guided by your orthodontic appliance. Clinical studies have shown that AcceleDent® Aura can speed up tooth movement by up to 50% — meaning a treatment that might otherwise take 18 months could potentially be completed in significantly less time.
- It's gentle: The micropulses delivered by AcceleDent® Aura are extraordinarily gentle — far gentler than the forces your teeth experience during everyday activities. In fact, the force applied to teeth during normal chewing is at least 200 times greater than the force produced by AcceleDent® Aura. The device accelerates tooth movement not by applying additional mechanical force, but by stimulating the cellular activity that enables natural bone remodeling — the biological process that makes orthodontic movement possible.
- It's safe and reliable: AcceleDent® Aura's safety and efficacy have been demonstrated in U.S. clinical trials. It has been prescribed to patients of all ages — children, teens, and adults — and has a strong safety record across thousands of cases worldwide. As an FDA-cleared device available only by prescription through your orthodontist, AcceleDent® Aura meets rigorous standards for both safety and performance.
