Our office is pleased to offer our patients passive self-ligating Damon System braces. Damon braces use a slide mechanism to hold the archwire, reducing the amount of friction between the braces and wires. This allows the teeth to move more freely, quickly, and comfortably. Thanks to these innovative new braces, achieving your best smile can be faster and easier than you ever thought possible!

Self-ligating braces — A world without elastic ties!
Self-ligating braces use a specialized clip in place of elastics to help the archwire guide teeth into place. These clips help reduce the amount of pressure being placed on the tooth and require fewer adjustments because there are no elastics to replace.
Technology
Damon passive self-ligating braces eliminate the need for elastic or metal “ties.” With Damon braces you can experience treatment without the tightening that is associated with changing these ties.
Treatment Time
While the time needed in braces will vary from case to case, treatment with the Damon System is typically very efficient. Also, fewer appointments may be required during treatment, making your Damon experience flexible and convenient.
Comfort
Even though the Damon System works quickly, the use of gentle, low-friction force means less discomfort for you. Very light “shape memory” titanium wires are used, gently guiding your teeth to their ideal position.
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 easier during treatment. Plus, the Damon System is available in clear brackets for patients who want a great smile without sacrificing aesthetics.
