Straightening your teeth doesn’t have to take years. Thanks to accelerated orthodontics, you can now enjoy a confident, aligned smile in a fraction of the time. And if you're searching for accelerated orthodontics in Austin, TX, Council Oak Perio is proud to offer a cutting-edge option: Periodontally Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics (PAOO).
Accelerated orthodontics is exactly what it sounds like—a way to straighten your teeth faster than with traditional braces or aligners alone. Advanced techniques like PAOO allow you to complete your orthodontic treatment 3–4 times faster than usual.
| Benefit | Why It Matters |
| Faster results | Finish in months—not years |
| Healthier bone & gum support | Stimulates tissue regeneration |
| Fewer complications | Shorter treatment often means fewer issues |
| Compatible with braces or aligners | Works with Invisalign® or traditional braces |
You’ve got places to be, events to attend, and pictures to take. Waiting 18–24 months for a perfect smile? Not ideal. Accelerated orthodontics speeds things up without compromising results.
When treatment wraps up faster, you’ll feel confident showing off your smile sooner. It’s a win-win.
PAOO (Periodontally Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics) is the gold standard in advanced, accelerated treatment. This method combines minor oral surgery with traditional orthodontic care to stimulate bone remodeling, which in turn speeds up tooth movement.
The process also supports soft tissue treatment, helping maintain healthy gums and bone while moving teeth efficiently.
Absolutely. Skilled dental professionals with advanced training in periodontal surgery and orthodontics perform PAOO. At Council Oak Perio, patient comfort, safety, and lasting results are top priorities.
We also keep an eye out for other concerns like peri-implantitis, ensuring that every element of your oral health is managed with the utmost care.
If you’ve got severe periodontal issues or compromised bone health, PAOO might not be the best fit—but don’t worry, we’ll guide you through alternatives like gum disease treatment if needed.
Curious how it all comes together? The PAOO process is streamlined, precise, and designed to get you from start to finish as efficiently as possible. Here’s how the treatment sequence typically goes:
Everything kicks off with a comprehensive consultation. This includes X-rays, 3D scans, a full periodontal evaluation, and a discussion about your goals. We’ll assess if you’re a good candidate for PAOO and map out your personalized treatment plan.
Once all diagnostics are in, our team reviews your case in detail. This step ensures both the periodontist and orthodontist are aligned on the approach. We’ll walk you through the next steps and answer any questions you have.
Before surgery, light orthodontic appliances may be placed to prepare the teeth for movement. This “pre-treatment” phase sets the stage for faster adjustments after surgery.
Performed right here at Council Oak Perio, this minor surgical procedure stimulates bone remodeling. It’s quick, minimally invasive, and key to the accelerated results PAOO delivers.
You’ll come in for follow-ups to monitor healing and make sure everything’s progressing smoothly. Most patients recover quickly and can return to normal routines in a matter of days.
With your mouth healed and primed for fast tooth movement, frequent orthodontic adjustments begin. These appointments keep the process on track and fine-tune your alignment as your smile transforms—quickly and comfortably.

Surprisingly, most patients report less discomfort than expected. PAOO might sound intense, but the recovery is typically smooth.
Insurance plans vary. Some may partially cover the orthodontic portion. Our team will help you explore options.
Yes! PAOO works with both clear aligners and traditional braces.
