Damon® self-ligating braces

At SmartDontics®, we are proud to offer our patients the latest orthodontic technology. Our Damon® self-ligating braces are a modern alternative to traditional metal braces, and create stunning results for our patients.

What are Damon® braces?

Damon® braces are known as self-ligating braces. This means that they utilise brackets and archwires to straighten your teeth like traditional braces, but don’t need elastic bands to hold them together.

The Damon® System uses special brackets with small metal clips that hold the archwire in place. These clips allow the archwire to slide gently through your brackets, reducing friction, increasing patient comfort, and speeding up treatment time.

Benefits of Damon® braces

The Damon® System has revolutionised braces treatment, and offers our patients a number of fantastic benefits including:

Increased comfort - The Damon® System uses less force and friction than traditional metal braces, making them more comfortable to wear.
Reduced treatment time - The self-ligating brackets allow for more efficient tooth movement, cutting your treatment time by up to four to six months.
Fewer appointments - Because the archwire can adjust its own position, Dr Patel won’t need you to come in for as frequent of adjustment appointments.
Reduced need for extractions - The Damon® System makes space naturally for any crowded teeth by gently expanding the dental arches.
Increased discretion - Damon® brackets are smaller than the brackets of traditional metal braces. They also come in a clear option for even more discretion.
Custom fit - Designed to fit each individual tooth perfectly, Damon® braces are an incredibly precise and highly effective orthodontic treatment.
