WHY DAMON® BRACES?
WHAT TO EXPECT
01 SCAN AND PLAN
We start by scanning your teeth and taking the necessary CBCT radiographs and photographs. We then start the digital planning process. With modern software we are able to predictably plan your new smile. We produce a full treatment plan prior to the active treatment phase.
02 ACTIVE TREATMENT
We place the brackets onto your teeth in exactly the positions specified during the planning step. This is known as the banding appointment and marks the beginning of your active orthodontic treatment. Adjustments are made during the course of this phase which could take 6 – 36 months depending on the complexity of the case.
03 RETENTION
Once we have achieved our desired results the braces are removed. To keep your teeth in these positions it is absolutely necessary to place permanent retainers onto the back of your teeth. In addition to the fixed retainers we also provide two sets of clear retainers to be worn at night.
FAQs
What makes Damon® Fixed Orthodontics different from traditional braces?
Damon® Fixed Orthodontics uses a unique self-ligating bracket system, which means they don't require elastic ties to hold the wire in place. Instead, the Damon® system uses a sliding mechanism to hold the wire, allowing for more natural tooth movement with less friction. This innovative design can lead to shorter treatment times, fewer adjustments and a more comfortable experience compared to traditional braces.
How long does treatment with Damon® Fixed Orthodontics typically take?
The duration of treatment with Damon® Fixed Orthodontics varies depending on the complexity of your case. However, many patients experience faster results compared to traditional braces. On average, treatment can take anywhere from 18 to 24 months. Your orthodontist will provide a more precise estimate based on your individual needs and treatment plan.
Are Damon® Fixed Orthodontics suitable for adults?
Yes, Damon® Fixed Orthodontics are suitable for patients of all ages, including adults. The system's efficient and gentle approach to tooth movement makes it an excellent option for adults seeking orthodontic treatment. Additionally, the Damon® braces are designed to be less noticeable and more comfortable, making them a popular choice for adults who want to improve their smile discreetly and effectively.
