Why Consider Accelerated Orthodontics?

Because Time Is Valuable

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.

Boosted Confidence

When treatment wraps up faster, you’ll feel confident showing off your smile sooner. It’s a win-win.

What Is PAOO?

The Science Behind the Speed

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.

Is PAOO Safe?

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.

Who’s a Good Candidate?

  • Adults and teens with healthy gums
  • Patients looking to speed up orthodontic treatment
  • People with mild to moderate crowding or spacing

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.

PAOO Treatment Sequence

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:

1. Initial Consults

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.

2. Case Discussion

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.

3. Begin Orthodontics

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.

4. PAOO 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.

5. Post-Surgery Appointments

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.

6. Orthodontic Adjustments

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.

I had a great experience with Dr. Bingham and Bianca at Council Oak. They were kind and helpful throughout my recovery, answering questions in the middle of the night and squeezing me in for a last minute post-op check in. I highly recommend Council Oak if you need a periodontist.

I learned it was necessary to get a dental implant and chose Dr. Christopher Bingham's practice, one of the best health decisions I have ever made. The entire process in my case took about nine months, and Dr. Bingham and his staff members were courteous, efficient and dedicated to making the whole implant process as seamless and convenient as possible. Dr. Bingham is truly an outstanding periodontist, and I recommend his services most highly. As a fun aside, he also has excellent taste in art because I always appreciated his office art collection during my visits. I hope this was my first and last implant, but God forbid if I have to get another one, I would definitely have Dr. Bingham and his capable staff do it.
