Smiles with a broad arch show more teeth and fill the corners of the mouth more fully. The result is a more natural and appealing smile. A broad arch also provides facial support, which gives the face a more youthful appearance.*
Teeth may appear relatively straight, while still being tipped in (pictured) or flared out. Having the teeth upright and in the correct position helps the jaws to function properly and can protect against wear caused by improper bite. Upright teeth can also enhance a smile’s appeal.
An important aspect of a beautiful smile is the smile arc. A smile arc is created when the curve of the teeth follows the curve of the lower lip, creating a naturally beautiful and flowing smile.
A smile with gingival excess, also known as a ‘gummy’ smile, can distract from the natural beauty of the teeth and face. Many Damon doctors can now treat gummy smiles to incredible results. Ask your Damon doctor about their experience treating these smiles.
Studies have shown that treatment time with Damon Smile is typically much faster than with conventional braces. Also, far fewer appointments are required during treatment.
No. In fact, what makes Damon Smile work so quickly is its use of gentle, more biologically-sensible forces than conventional braces. The low-friction nature of the system ensures improved tooth position and improved facial harmony. Very light-weight, shape memory wires are used to gently guide your teeth to their ideal position resulting in a beautiful Damon Smile.
While braces of any kind may cause slight discomfort, many patients experience very little discomfort with Damon Smile braces because of the system's low-force, low-friction nature.
Not anymore! Braces are much smaller than they were just a few years ago, and new materials are now used that make them very discreet. Damon Smile braces have a particularly low profile, so you might forget you're even wearing them!
People of all ages should be proud of their smile. Adults can be treated quickly, easily, and most importantly, with a high-quality result.
We know that cost is a big question for anyone considering braces. Upon your initial consultation we'll be able to determine the cost for your specific treatment. Damon Smile braces are usually similar to the cost of traditional braces.
Upon your initial consultation and treatment plan we'll sit with you to determine the best financial option available.
Because medical benefits differ significantly from policy to policy, you should review your policy coverage. If you have orthodontics coverage, Damon Smile braces are covered to the same extent as regular braces.
