Damon System Braces

What are Damon Braces ?

Damon braces is a tooth alignment method using self-ligating technology without the need of O-ring or the elastic ties. Unlike the traditional braces, Damon has a metal door to lock and control the wire by sliding the wire instead of using the O-ring to tie the wire. Therefore, this method will create less friction from the wire movement, reduce the treatment duration, and cause less pain. The braces are available in metal and ceramic (natural teeth color). Damon braces are fitted dental alignment braces using the self-ligating technology to adjust the teeth by sliding the wire instead of using the elastic tie. The braces are customized to suit each patient. The wires are minimal size and light weighted so they have less pressure on the teeth, thus shorten the treatment duration.
