Here at Smile Design Studio we use an orthodontic system known as Damon braces and Damon braces differs from traditional or conventional braces in that it uses a technology known as passive self-ligation and what passive self-ligation does is it allows us to place a much lighter force with less friction on the teeth in order to move them. Compared to traditional or conventional braces which places a fairly heavy force and involves a lot friction because of the elastics which hold those wires and brackets on the teeth. Having a lighter force on the teeth really presents us with the advantages that Damon braces have and that is it allows us to have a much faster treatment time. Most Damon cases are finished in around 18 months compared to traditional braces which may be you know 2-3 I have even heard of 4 to 5 year long cases. So apart from faster treatment results we also get a lot less pain and discomfort. Having a much lighter force being placed on the teeth they are less likely to be sore during treatment and less likely to get damage done to the teeth. There are less risks involved such as teeth dying or roots of the teeth becoming shortened as a result of heavy forces placed on those teeth. So we have: faster treatment time, less pain and discomfort, less risks. But also the most important thing of all with Damon braces is the advantage of having better results. So with Damon braces because of the light forces we are able to actually change the way in which the jaws are shaped. So we can develop arches and we can create space without having to remove any teeth in order to do so. We can expand the palate, we can make the jaws wider and larger in order to make room for the teeth to be aligned and in that way Damon braces actually creates a much more beautiful, fuller, wider smile. So all in all there is really no disadvantage when it comes to Damon braces. Damon braces is a fantastic system which we use here at Smile Design Studio and let us know if we can help you to create a beautiful smile.

I got Damon braces yesterday and I am astounded at how comfotable they are
I expected hell and all I have experienced is a bit of tickling and a bit of an ache
It is remarkable and I'm so happy invested in them 😊
Did u have to remove your wisdom teeth?
Result update?
Dude died from. Self ligation kicked in and he experienced hell shortly after he made this comment
Tbh I was kinda sad that my orthodontist had me to get Damon braces cs I really want to have colour band on my braces. However, I am grateful now. Indeed, it's less painful and I have options either to take my teeth off or not, I chose to not.
Is it faster ?
Hey is damon braces really less painful than traditional. Please share some information since you had them.
@@pramilakumari8634 yes they are.
@@wingriddenangel8407 could you please give more details abt damon braces
Same the only part I was excited about was picking a color then I got these
So true on the more full smile, it’s really noticeable, also on the less soreness as well. First bind on top and bottom only had me sore for about a day, all the new wire adjustments afterwards had me sore for only a few hours.
Compare this to my friends who had traditional braces and their initial bind had them sore for around 4-5 days, and their subsequent adjustments had them sore for a few days everytime.
I get my brace off next week. With Damon braces my full treatment was only 20 months. Damon is the way to go. 43yo adult male.
Hello doc
When you say that Damon braces can enlarge the jaw does that also apply to adults too?
Hi. I do have a question : Interm of results is there a difference?
Soon I will begin a othodontical treatments I will wear braces. I'm 30 and I will have a
surgical operation Efort 1 impaction because of the gummy smile.
My jaws are very narrow. So in terms of expansion, is there a difference in aesthetic result?
Thank you very much in advance.
what did you end up doing
The results is base on the orthodontist not the system. Both systems can give u good results
Hello,
I got Damon braces 2/11/18 I had 5 impacted wisdom teeth extracted prior to getting the braces on. I needed my Jax expanded to make room for my teeth which weren’t very crooked, the main issue were my rotated canines which have since been straightened and a bit lowered. They are still need to be lowered and my jaw has expanded but now my front teeth are all sticking out to the front quite a bit. My orthodontist wanted to take them off in the next 2 weeks. I objected because they look like they need to be pushed in quite a bit more and the canines lowered. He is telling me it is just the way my jaw is... I paid upfront and im now wishing I hadn’t. He did agree to try to get them to look as best as he could but isn’t that the objective in the first place? I just don’t think his excuse was a valid one...?
@Qasim Mohammad just be very clear about the results your looking for. Make sure you are vocal. My orthodontist cuts me off a lot and doesn’t let me speak I just want them off at this point so I can start looking into Invisalign.
@Qasim Mohammad so I was very stubborn about not liking my results so he shaved the 4 front top and 4 front bottom to make space for them to tuck back. I believe that if your ONLY issue is a bit of crowding at the bottom it’s not worth going through the whole braces journey, but if you already got them I’m sure you will have great results. My teeth were a mess and they are starting to look a lot better.
Did you get a second opinion?
what about those with tmj? i want to move forwrd with braces, but because i have such a tight jaw, i'm leary. please let me know if this is wise? thank. you.
Someone please explain to me how less force equals faster manipulation. This defies the laws of physics. Thanks in advance
The force is restricting the teeth to move with more ease. They’re talking about a different force. I recommend watching “self ligating and tradition braces” from the channel called braces tv to have a better explanation for this
@@osenazl Thanks. I actually got Damon braces shortly after I made my original comment. They definitely move your teeth fast! The first couple weeks were pretty painful, mostly due to irritating my cheeks until they got used to it. Barely notice them now. Cheers.
I got Damon’s a few days ago starting my journey and they asked me what colors did I want. Unless they were asking about the colors of the rubber bands and I missed that lol
Hello, what if your teeth have gaps, do you put chain ligature ties on self ligating braces?
sorry im late but yes
@@nathan-to6sqI have them right now and they frickin hurttt 😫
My only issue with damon braces is they don’t look right with color. It’s just like big ass circles with pink around it.
So far 1.5 yrs in, my damons only hurt about a day and a half when I chew with new wires. Day 3 the pain while biting is all but gone. I made sure to ask for damons. The pain starts about 4 to 6 hours after new wire and is the worse the 2nd day then magically it is gone when I wake next day, chewing away then I feel like the wire isnt strong enough
I’m having my Damon braces whish me luck
How's it going with the braces?
Damn I wish you were in Britain!
Studies are saying that there is no significant difference compared to the normal braces.
What do you say?
Finally somebody said that👏🏼
My Damon braces have me VERY sore.
Are thay less painful?
@@Moon-qu2uy i just got mine yesterday no pain at all
What about the results
@@sarahadelhassan6387 very beautiful results
@@msbelle333 I can’t wait to get mine also quick question I have a narrow mouth and I want to expand it will it open my mouth a bit?
Just marketing. The force is not comming from the braces!
Where is the force coming from, all that are on my teeth are braces and I feel the force LUKE and of course they are moving well. Do you mean brackets?? Braces are the wires and brackets and indeed apply force
You mean marketing? Paid video
What he says is applying to my case
Asian looking guy with australian accent? For some reason I find it amusing. ( Edited to keep all the snowflakes happy 😊)
Cool.
It’s 2019 and people don’t understand migration and the fact that people aren’t bound to countries just cause their ancestors lived in them?
Um....how about say “Asian man” , that would be much less offensive.
My cousins live in Australia and they’re Japanese. I also have friends living in Georgia, so “Japanese faces” with southern accents. Crazy world, huh! 🤦♀️
you’re a whole idiot. all ethnic, racial, national groups are spread out all over the world. don’t know why this would be something to point out.
this is so racist wtf
