Damon® System Braces

We are able to treat to a higher quality and a better result with this bracket system.

Our office is pleased to offer our patients passive self-ligating Damon System braces. The Damon System uses a sliding mechanism to hold the archwire, reducing the amount of pressure exerted on the teeth and allowing the teeth to move more freely, quickly, and comfortably. Thanks to these innovative new braces, achieving your perfect smile can be faster and easier than you ever thought possible!

Tie-less braces — A world without elastic ties

Tie-less braces help reduce the amount of pressure being placed on the tooth and require fewer adjustments because there are no elastics to replace.

The Damon Smile System facilitates healthy tooth movement with complete control. By combining tie-less brackets and high-tech archwires, we can minimize discomfort and create beautiful smiles that last a lifetime.

Braces are the beginning, but the system makes the smile!

The Damon System is not just about revolutionary braces and wires, it’s a whole new way of treating patients. Traditional treatment often requires removal of healthy teeth and/or the use of palatal expanders to make space. This approach is often uncomfortable, takes longer, and can leave a narrower arch and a flat profile. Damon smiles are full, natural 10-tooth smiles achieved with light biologically-sensible forces, and are specifically designed to improve the overall facial result of each patient.

Technology

Damon tie-less braces eliminate the need for elastic or metal “ties.” With Damon braces you can experience treatment without tightening.

Comfort

Even though the Damon System works so quickly, the use of gentle, low-friction force means less discomfort for you.

Convenience

Damon braces are designed to be discreet, comfortable, and easy to keep clean. Without the elastic ties, which attract and collect plaque, Damon braces make dental hygiene easy during treatment. Plus, the Damon Smile System is available in clear brackets for patients who want a great smile without sacrificing aesthetics.

Treatment Time

While the time needed in braces will vary from case to case, treatment time with the Damon System is typically much faster than with conventional braces. Also, far fewer appointments are required during treatment, making your Damon experience convenient and hassle-free.

Frequently Asked Questions

HOW LONG DOES TREATMENT TAKE?

Treatment time with The Damon System braces are typically much faster than with conventional braces. Also, far fewer appointments are required during treatment.

HOW MUCH DOES THE DAMON SMILE SYSTEM TREATMENT COST?

We know that cost is a big question for anyone considering braces. The truth is, only your doctor can determine the cost for your specific treatment based upon your treatment time and plan. Damon System braces are usually similar to the cost of traditional braces.

WILL MY TEETH HURT AFTER ADJUSTMENTS?

While braces of any kind may cause slight discomfort, many patients experience very little discomfort with Damon System braces because of the system’s low-force, low-friction nature.

WHAT ABOUT ADULT TREATMENT?

People of all ages should be proud of their smile. Adults can be treated quickly, easily, and most importantly, with a high-quality result.

DOES INSURANCE COVER DAMON SYSTEM TREATMENT?

Because medical benefits differ significantly from policy to policy, we’ll review your plan benefits and be happy to discuss them with you at your initial consultation. If you have orthodontic coverage, Damon System braces are covered to the same extent as regular braces.

AREN'T BRACES BIG AND BULKY?

Not any more! Braces are much smaller than they were just a few years ago, and new materials are now used that make them very discreet. Damon System braces have a particularly low profile, so you might forget you’re even wearing them!

SINCE THE DAMON SMILE SYSTEM WORKS SO QUICKLY, DOES THAT MEAN IT IS HARSH OR UNSAFE?

No. In fact, what makes the Damon System work so quickly is its use of gentle, more biologically sensible forces than conventional braces. The low-friction nature of the system ensures improved tooth position and improved facial harmony. Very light ‘shape memory’ titanium wires are used to gently guide your teeth to their ideal position.
