Orthodontic Treatment Assistance
Orthodontic treatment continues to evolve, giving patients more flexibility and personalized options than ever before. Through collaborative care, Dr. O’Donnell works closely with referring orthodontists to help support optimal treatment outcomes with greater precision, predictability, and efficiency.
Specialized adjunctive periodontal procedures may be recommended to improve gum and bone health, support tooth movement, and enhance long-term stability throughout orthodontic treatment. By combining advanced periodontal care with orthodontic planning, patients can achieve healthier, more functional, and aesthetically balanced results.

Types of Procedures Offered
Skeletal Anchorage
Pins & Plates
We utilize skeletal anchorage pins and plates to enable precise, ideal tooth movement without compromising the position of surrounding teeth. This approach ensures maximum efficiency throughout treatment.
- Pins: Appropriate for achieving precise movement over shorter distances.
- Plates: Appropriate for movement over longer distances.
Accelerated Treatment
Piezosurgical Techniques
Advanced piezosurgical techniques with bone grafting help facilitate swift tooth movement, sometimes reducing treatment time by half. This procedure is also known as Wilkodontics® or Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics™ (AOO™).
Because bone grafting is completed as part of this clinical procedure, the final bone profile is usually healthier and more robust than otherwise possible through standard methods.
- Reduced orthodontic treatment time
- Healthier post-treatment bone profile
- Greater precision and predictability
- Collaborative care for optimal results
