Damon Brackets

Self-ligation, an innovative clinical technology, makes orthodontic treatment more efficient and more comfortable than ever before. The traditional treatment involving tying archwires in with elastic ties causes friction. This involves heavier forces to move the teeth, resulting in a longer treatment time. Self-ligation appliances have a built-in "sliding door" that holds the wire in place while allowing it to slide freely back and forth. This system allows the use of high-tech, light-force wires to achieve tooth movement. This results in less pressure to the teeth, thus more comfortable treatment. Treatment time can be dramatically reduced. This means fewer adjustments, which result in less frequent office visits to achieve treatment goals.

Clarity - Clear Braces

Braces have come a long way since you were a kid. New technology has resulted in clear aesthetic braces which look as good as they feel. Advanced wire technology means shorter treatment times and more efficient tooth movement. The good news is that adult orthodontics has never been easier, more efficient and more comfortable.

Invisalign
If the thought of wearing braces is all that is stopping you from getting the smile you've always wanted, we have some very good news for you. Invisalign is a breakthrough in orthodontics that uses clear, virtually undetectable tooth-aligners to gradually move your teeth without braces. Because there are no metal wires and brackets, Invisalign is comfortable. And because the aligners are removable, eating, brushing and flossing are no problem and you can still enjoy your favorite foods.

Using the latest advances in 3-D computer technology, Invisalign carefully translates the doctors instructions into a series of precisely customized aligners. You then wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, moving your teeth gradually- week by week, millimeter by millimeter- until you've achieved the smile you've always wanted without the braces you've always avoided.
