The Damon System

Dr. Goings chooses to use the most advanced technology in orthodontics.  Advancements in orthodontics have dramatically improved the experience of having braces, the time involved and most importantly the final result. The Damon System of braces is “passive self-ligating,” which allows for faster, easier and more comfortable tooth movement than ever before. 

Comparative assessment studies show that it results in:

  1. Shorter treatment time (shortening treatment time in most cases by 4-6 months).
  2. Less frequent office visits (appointments are generally 8-10 weeks apart).
  3. Increased patient comfort.
  4. Straightening without the “tightening”.
  5. No permanent teeth extractions (in most cases).
  6. No palatal expanders (in most cases).
  7. No headgear (in most cases).
Facts About the Damon System of Braces
  • Shorter treatment times. Typical treatment takes 4-6 months less than in the past.
  • Increased Comfort Level. The high-tech non-friction bracket design, soft, heat-sensitive wires with memory and incredibly gentle forces comfortably guide teeth into the desired position.
  • Fewer Visits. Generally, appointment intervals occur every 8-12 weeks rather than the customary 4 weeks.
  • Healthier Teeth & Gums. The Damon bracket design is more self-cleansing and, therefore, it’s easier to keep the teeth and gums healthy.
  • Future Dental Work. When teeth are easily moved into the most desirable and functional position, any needed dental work can be more easily and ideally completed.

The Damon bracket offers several benefits for patients. It is made from stainless steel for stability and a clear material for aesthetics. The rounded structure improves patient comfort while maintaining overall performance.

The Damon System uses a self-ligation technique using lighter wires and lower friction brackets to move teeth, while resulting in faster treatment times due to its slide mechanism, strong, mechanical base bonding and solid walls structured to control tooth movement with speed and efficiency.

In addition to greater comfort, the Damon System makes it easier to maintain good hygiene because it’s easier to keep clean. This contributes to greater health, happiness and physical attractiveness for the duration of patient treatment.
