Damon™ Smile Tie-Less Braces
Our office is pleased to offer our patients passive self-ligating Damon Smile braces. Damon braces use a slide 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!
Damon Smile 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.
Damon Smile 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!
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 Damon Smile 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, Damon Smile 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 Damon Smile is typically much faster than with conventional braces. Also, far fewer appointments are required during treatment, making your Damon experience convenient and hassle-free.
Smiles For All Ages!
Damon Smile is based on a unique treatment philosophy that goes beyond a beautiful smile. We are trained to take the whole patient into account: the shape of your face, your profile, and what you will look like into your 40s, 50s, and beyond.
For adults, Damon Smile braces are not only about getting straight teeth but also about turning back the clock to a more youthful appearance. Many people see a noticeable change not just in their teeth, but in their entire face, as it produces:
Damon Smile Bracelift
- A fuller, wider smile
- Better facial balance and aesthetics
- Smoother cheek contours which make narrow smiles look fuller and more inviting
- Fewer dark triangles within the corners of your mouth
- Straighter, less crowded and crooked teeth
- Improved profiles and a more youthful look at any age
Frequently Asked Questions About Damon Smile
How long does treatment take?
Studies have shown that treatment time with Damon Smile is typically much faster than with conventional braces. Also, far fewer appointments are required during treatment.
Since Damon Smile works so quickly, does that mean it is harsh or unsafe?
No. In fact, what makes Damon Smile 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-weight, shape memory wires are used to gently guide your teeth to their ideal position resulting in a beautiful Damon Smile.
Will my teeth hurt after adjustments?
While braces of any kind may cause slight discomfort, many patients experience very little discomfort with Damon Smile braces because of the system’s low-force, low-friction nature.
Aren’t braces big and bulky?
Not anymore! Braces are much smaller than they were just a few years ago, and new materials are now used that make them very discreet. Damon Smile braces have a particularly low profile, so you might forget you’re even wearing them!
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.
How much does Damon Smile treatment cost?
We know that cost is a big question for anyone considering braces. Upon your initial consultation, we’ll be able to determine the cost for your specific treatment. Damon Smile braces are usually similar to the cost of traditional braces.
Does insurance cover Damon Smile treatment?
Because medical benefits differ significantly from policy to policy, you should review your policy coverage. If you have orthodontic coverage, Damon Smile braces are covered to the same extent as regular braces.
What payment options are available?
Upon your initial consultation and treatment plan, we’ll sit with you to determine the best financial option available.
