So, braces huh???

Braces come in many different styles, colors and shapes. Currently we offer a couple different styles of braces.

Most commonly we use the Damon 3 bracket. This bracket is a technologically advanced brand-new bracket that offers the patient the most comfort of any bracket we have.

In edition to the Damon 3, we have the Damon 2, Standard brackets, SmartClip brackets, Clear brackets, and gold brackets. In special cases (limited treatment only)and for a small additional cost, we can use Wild Smiles brackets (shaped like hearts, flowers, footballs, stars, or soccer balls).

The newest member of the Damon family is the MX bracket. The MX is an all metal Damon 3 bracket that has smooth edges and a sleek new look. The design provides the patient with a quicker treatment time and increased comfort during wear.

This is the Damon 3 bracket. We use it most commonly and patients are having a very high success rate. These brackets are aesthetic as well as a functional appliance.

Here are the Damon 2 brackets. We use them regularly and have had fast, effective results.

The clear bracket is an esthetic option for the patient concerned with metal.

Here is the golden bracket, we don't use it regularly, but when requested and where appropriate we can.

This is a diagram of standard braces. It explains all of the parts of your braces, including the archwire, brackets, and colored ties (please note that colored ties are only necessary with standard brackets).
