Damon Braces
The Damon System is a scientifically proven approach to orthodontic treatment. Each bracket is "self-ligating", meaning that it has a built-in door that holds the wire passively to the bracket. Additional attachments (ligature ties, elastic ties) are not needed to hold the wire which decreases friction (therefore, less force required) to overcome when moving teeth. This allows us to use light, more biologically compatible forces which minimizes the need for extractions of permanent teeth, headgear, and high force palatal expanders (RPE). Damon smiles are fuller, more natural and are achieved with lighter forces specifically designed to improve the overall result for each patient.They are available in both metal and ceramic varieties.
