Damon braces
Damon System braces
Braces are an effective way to straighten your teeth, correct overcrowding issues, adjust bite problems and enhance the appearance of your smile. Since every smile is unique, there are various braces options available to meet your specific needs.
One option is Damon System braces, which are a comfortable alternative to traditional metal braces and Invisalign.
How do Damon braces work?
Similar to other orthodontic devices, the main goal of Damon braces is to straighten your teeth. However, the main difference between Damon braces and traditional braces is how they’ll straighten your teeth.
A Damon brace uses a specialized bracket that connects to the wire on your teeth. Rather than the doctor tightening your braces to align your teeth into place, Damon braces use a sliding mechanism. When your orthodontist attaches this sliding mechanism to the archwire on the brackets, your teeth will move into place more naturally.
Types of Damon brackets
There are two different types of Damon brackets available to meet your needs or preferences:
- Damon metal brackets: Damon metal brackets are low-profile and feature a powerful self-ligating system that keeps up with almost any lifestyle.
- Damon clear brackets: Damon clear brackets are a transparent way to comfortably straighten teeth. These brackets also use self-ligation technology to minimize friction for efficient tooth movement.
