Self-ligating braces using the Damon System
Self-ligating braces using the Damon System - Traditional braces apply pressure by using o-rings to push your teeth into position. Damon braces, on the other hand, don’t use o-rings or metal-tie wires to hold the archwires in place. Instead, they use a sliding mechanism. Though your teeth are still forced into position, they can move freely. As a result, you may experience less pain. Pros: ·        Compact and can be easier to clean. Though debatable, you’ll likely experience less pain. ·        Fewer appointments are needed to apply braces or to make adjustments ·        Increased comfort because of low-profile brackets and no ties ·        Efficient tooth movement for shorter treatment time ·        High-tech archwire design and creation   Cons:  ·        Higher cost where self-ligating clear braces have an effective cost. ·        Irritation even though it is relatively discomfort-free during most of the treatment, some patients may experience an adjustment period initially after the braces have been placed. Mouth sores are caused on rare occations due to friction with braces. ·        Visibility-not totally transparent even though it is called a clear brace, the metal arch-wires running across lower and upper teeth are still visible to people.
