Abstract
The primary concern among patients and orthodontists is the prolonged treatment time. In the present scenario where patients desire quicker results, the extended treatment duration is a deterrent for seeking orthodontic treatment. Psychological burnout, poor oral hygiene due to difficulty in performing oral prophylaxis, food lodgment leading to gingival and periodontal diseases, and dental caries are among the many associated problems with orthodontic treatment. Multiple methods have been introduced to improve the rate of tooth movement. This article explains the various mechanisms of action of different acceleratory orthodontic techniques and their associated pros and cons.
