ACCELERATED ORTHODONTICS

Wilckodontics (Periodontally Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics) is a field of dentistry that addresses the issue of rapid orthodontic movement through the use of interdisciplinary treatment methods that help teeth move rapidly through the bone. Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics (AOO) procedure is part of the Wilckodontics System and is a procedure that significantly reduces the time required to treat orthodontic cases by as quickly as three to eight months, which is four times faster than traditional orthodontic methods. The AOO procedure involves the oral surgeon making incisions on the bone responsible for supporting the teeth. Next, the bone is scored, which decreases its mineral content and makes it softer. At Lake Norman Oral & Facial Surgery, we offer a full range of oral and maxillofacial surgical Procedures, specializing in facial reconstruction, facial surgery, corrective jaw surgery, obstructive sleep apnea, and wisdom tooth removal.

Words cannot express enough, how wonderful, caring and professional Dr. Haigney and his staff are! After being rushed to the Huntersville hospital with an orbital fracture, broken nose and other facial damage, Dr. Haigney rushed me into surgery (on his day off I must add) and corrected all my problems. I only wish all doctors cared as much about their patients and their recovery as Dr. Haigney and his staff did. Thank you so much for everything! Your attention and compassion has helped me make my recovery as comfortable as possible. 5 star service!
