What Are Damon Braces?

Damon Braces are special because each bracket has a small latch that is used to hold onto the wire that shifts the teeth. This is a big change from traditional rubber elastics. Overall, this means the wire has to deal with less friction as the teeth move, meaning the changes created by the braces happen more easily and with less discomfort, with the bonus that this also speeds up treatment!

Damon Metal Braces

On the surface, Damon metal braces look like traditional braces, but a closer examination will reveal that they are much more advanced. In addition to the latches that allow our team to quickly switch out the wires, the brackets are also more rounded and have fewer rough edges, which means they fit more comfortably against the gums and lips compared to regular braces.

Damon Clear2 Clear Braces

Damon Clear2 braces have all the design advantages of regular Damon braces, but the brackets are also made of a clear ceramic that helps them blend into the teeth. This more subtle appearance allows a patient to confidently smile knowing that people won’t immediately notice their braces.

What Makes Damon Braces Different?

Because Damon Braces help the teeth move more efficiently compared to traditional braces, they enable our team to apply gentler forces during a patient’s treatment, meaning they’ll experience less oral discomfort throughout the process. Damon Braces also allow them to shift the teeth without having to use expanders or extractions as often as they would with regular braces. This helps a patient begin their treatment faster and potentially shave months off of their overall treatment time.

Benefits of Damon Braces for All Ages

Damon Braces are effective for adults and children alike. For adults, they offer a comfortable and potentially discreet option to straighten the teeth that helps save time at every stage of treatment, which is also great news for parents with children who need braces. Whenever it’s time for an adjustment appointment, all we have to do is open the latches on the brackets, place the new wire, and that’s it! Often, this can be done in 10 minutes or less, which works great with even the busiest schedule.

Damon Braces FAQs

Does Dental Insurance Cover Damon Braces?

Though it varies from plan to plan, if your dental insurance policy has orthodontic coverage, Damon System braces should be covered to the same extent as traditional braces are.

How Long Does Damon System Treatment Take?

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

Can Adults Get Damon Braces?

Yes, if you and your smile are in good health, you may be able to get Damon Braces, even if you’re an adult. In fact, in a recent consumer survey, over 70 percent of adults who had previously undergone orthodontic treatment responded that they would have preferred to get Damon Braces instead of what they were treated with.

Will My Teeth Hurt After Adjustment with Damon Braces?

With Damon Braces, very light “shape memory” titanium wires are employed to gently guide your teeth to their ideal positioning. Because of this, many patients who get them say they experience minimal discomfort after adjustments.

Are Damon Braces the Same as Self-Ligating Braces?

While all Damon Braces are self-ligating, not all self-ligating braces are Damon Braces. Self-ligating braces refer to the category of orthodontic appliances that use a special clip or door mechanism to hold the wire, rather than traditional elastic ties. This design reduces friction and allows for smoother tooth movement. Damon Braces belong to a specific brand and system within the broader self-ligating category, and they incorporate unique, patented technology designed to offer greater comfort and efficiency.

At our orthodontic practice, we choose Damon Braces because we value their advanced design and reliable clinical results. By providing Damon Braces, we give you access to a system known for its gentle force, shorter treatment times, and improved oral hygiene compared to traditional braces. Our team will always help you understand the differences so you can make the best decision for your smile.

Are Damon Braces Able to Correct Severe or Complex Dental Misalignment?

Damon Braces are engineered to treat a wide range of cases, from mild adjustments to more challenging forms of misalignment. Their self-ligating mechanism allows for controlled, gradual movement of the teeth, which can be especially beneficial for complex cases. Many patients with significant dental irregularities have achieved impressive results using this system.

We regularly use Damon Braces for patients who present with severe or complicated orthodontic conditions. Our experience and training with this system help us tailor a treatment plan that meets your specific needs. Do not hesitate to ask about Damon Braces, even if you feel that your case is on the complex side of things!

How Do Damon Clear2 Braces Compare to Invisalign?

Damon Clear2 Braces are nearly invisible and blend in with your natural teeth, making them a popular choice for those who seek a discreet treatment option. Unlike Invisalign, which uses a series of removable aligners, Damon Clear2 Braces remain fixed to your teeth throughout the course of treatment. This means you do not have to worry about misplacing aligners or remembering to wear them for the recommended amount of time.

Our team has found that Damon Clear2 Braces provide precise control over tooth movement, which can be advantageous in more complex cases where aligners may not be as effective.

We will help you compare your options, discuss your lifestyle and treatment goals, and recommend the best approach for your individual needs.

How Much Do Damon Braces Cost?

The price of Damon Braces can vary depending on the complexity of your case, the length of treatment, and any additional procedures that may be necessary. In general, Damon Braces are roughly comparable in cost to traditional braces and other advanced orthodontic systems. Some patients find that the shorter treatment times and reduced need for adjustments can make Damon Braces a worthwhile investment.

We believe in transparency and will always provide a detailed explanation of your treatment fees before beginning your orthodontic journey. Our practice offers flexible payment plans and will work with you to maximize any insurance benefits you may have.
