Braces for Adults: Treatment For All Ages
Hearing the word “braces” probably takes you back to what you remember of braces from your childhood. But fear not, though, because braces have come a long way from the classic bulky, chunky metal braces you remember. At Olsen Orthodontics, we utilize the latest cutting-edge braces technology to offer patients a more discreet, aesthetically pleasing alternative to conventional metal braces. Damon braces have a sleeker look and a more comfortable fit, so you will hardly even remember you’re receiving orthodontic treatment.
Damon self-ligating braces are a revolutionary treatment solution that offers a more comfortable, efficient, and discreet alternative to traditional metal braces. These braces utilize self-ligating technology rather than classic elastics or metal ties to hold the wire in place. The self-ligating technology is made up of a special sliding mechanism to secure the wire and allow the wire to move more freely as your teeth shift into their proper placement, reducing friction, maximizing comfort, and minimizing the need for frequent adjustment appointments. Damon braces are designed to be more discreet, with smaller brackets and both metal and clear bracket options. These self-ligating braces are more comfortable, aesthetically pleasing, and more efficient.
