About Damon Braces

If you thought you had to have bulky fixed braces to fix your smile, think again: Damon Braces is a fixed brace system, which uses friction-free technology and feather-light brackets to move the teeth gently into position. Damon Braces are made up of self-ligating wires, which help to prevent friction and reduce pain and brackets, which use a sliding mechanism, to hold the wires in place without applying excessive force, which can be painful. The braces do not contain any bands, elastic or metal ties and there is no need for palatal expanders to create space prior to treatment. In the vast majority of cases, there is also no need for tooth extraction before the braces are fitted.

What are the benefits of Damon Braces?

Damon Braces are one of the best examples of modern orthodontics. This system is very high-tech and the aim is to straighten the teeth quickly and painlessly.

This is a highly versatile treatment, which is suitable for most patients, including those who have complex issues, which require a great deal of tooth movement. Treatment times are shorter than fixed braces and in most cases treatment is complete between 4 and 6 months earlier than with traditional fixed braces.

These high-tech braces are also very comfortable; the sliding brackets and self-ligating wires reduce friction and enable quick tooth movement without causing pain and there are no adjustment sessions required during treatment, which tend to be very painful and uncomfortable.

pDamon Braces are also easier to keep clean because there are no bands and ties, which tend to collect plaque and food debris. This means that it is easier to maintain good oral hygiene, which is good news for your oral health.

As the brackets are made from ceramic material and they are much smaller than traditional brace brackets, this is also a much more discreet option than traditional fixed braces. It is also possible to choose Damon Clear braces, which are even more discreet.

How much do Damon Braces cost?

It probably won’t surprise you to learn that this is one of the more expensive teeth straightening methods, but it has numerous benefits and many patients find that the investment is very worthwhile. The exact cost of treatment will vary according to the location of the clinic, the dentist you see and the complexity of treatment required, but the average cost is around £3,500.

Damon Braces are an ideal choice for patients who are looking for a fast, comfortable, convenient and discreet treatment. This system is able to command a lot of movement, which means that it is appropriate for most patients, including those with very complex orthodontic needs. Damon Braces are available at our Edinburgh based practice and they provide a more discreet alternative to traditional fixed braces and they also work quicker and provide a more comfortable treatment experience.
