If you are experiencing problems with crooked or misshapen teeth, want braces but don’t have much time to visit the dentist, or want to complete your orthodontic treatment quickly, Damon System braces are the answer! This orthodontic technique helps make your teeth beautiful without a long wait. This is the final answer you’ve been looking for.
Get to Know “Damon Braces” – What Are They?
Damon System braces are orthodontic treatment using special appliances, featuring brackets or metal parts attached to the teeth that have self-ligating properties to hold the wire. This type of appliance has low friction, allowing teeth to move faster, thus requiring less treatment time than traditional braces. It also does not require monthly dental visits like regular braces. Additionally, the appliance causes less irritation than conventional braces and reduces pain during orthodontic treatment.
There Are 2 Types of Damon Braces to Choose From
The difference between Damon braces is that the DAMON Q type uses silver-colored materials, while the DAMON CLEAR type uses clear materials. The clear type is more expensive because the transparent material makes the braces less noticeable. The orthodontic procedures for both types are the same, differing only in the color of the materials used.
What Are the Advantages of Damon Braces?
- Suitable for patients with severe crowding or narrow jaws
- Takes less time because teeth move faster, averaging about 6 months
- Patients experience less tooth pain compared to traditional braces
- Reduces the chance of needing tooth extraction for orthodontic treatment (depending on facial structure and patient’s condition)
- Reduces irritation of oral tissues
- No need for monthly dental visits
What Are the Disadvantages of Damon Braces?
- Damon braces are more expensive than traditional braces
- Cannot change the color of the elastics every month like traditional braces
- Uses more complex orthodontic appliances, which may make cleaning less thorough
