Since the turn of the century, orthodontics has undergone crucial improvements. These innovations have not halted, a few years ago a new branch of orthodontic appliances appeared. These are the appliances with passive self-ligating braces. The pioneering innovation is dedicated to Dr. Dwight H. Damon. The Damon System has several new qualities and has numerous advantages over the traditional orthodontic appliances. Perhaps one of the most significant benefits is that while those traditional appliances often required extracting teeth in case of crowded teeth in order to carry out the treatment, Damon appliances are less reliant on the extraction of teeth to achieve tooth alignment! Therefore by the end of the treatment your smile will be enhanced, your facial features will appear harmonic. Moreover, this appliance requires less frequent adjustment visits, and also it works faster! Traditional orthodontic treatments often need to be complemented with headgears or appliances with harsh extra pressure to the teeth or jaw, which, by far, are not very comfortable. Applying the Damon System excellent results can be achieved without using any of these. There is nothing to think about which type of orthodontic appliance is worth choosing, isn’t there?
