What Is Self-Ligating Braces?
Damon Clear Braces are a type of Self-Ligating Braces with an orthodontic system that uses clear ceramic brackets and a slide mechanism to hold the archwire, eliminating the need for elastic ties. This reduces friction, enhances comfort, and can lead to faster treatment. They are nearly invisible, blend with natural teeth, and are easier to clean. Damon Clear Braces also help create a broader, more balanced smile while offering a discreet and effective alternative to traditional metal braces.
How It Works
Damon Clear Braces use clear ceramic brackets with a built-in self-ligating slide mechanism instead of elastic ties. During the procedure, the dentist cleans the teeth and bonds the brackets to each tooth. A thin, lightweight archwire is then threaded through the brackets and held in place by the sliding clips. This system gently guides the teeth into position with less friction and pressure. The clear ceramic makes the braces nearly invisible, and the absence of rubber bands makes cleaning easier and treatment more comfortable. Regular check-ups monitor progress with fewer adjustments needed.
