A sliding mechanism <strong>allows teeth to move gradually as they straighten<\/strong>. This system doesn&#8217;t require the little rubber bands used in traditional braces.<\/p>    <p>The makers of self-ligating braces and their affiliates claim that treatment is faster and less painful with self-ligating braces than with conventional braces. <\/p>    <p>However, there is other evidence to contradict these claims, and each person&#8217;s experience will vary depending on the approach their orthodontist uses for their particular case.<\/p>    <h2 id=\"what-are-damon-braces\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are Damon braces?<\/h2>   <div class=\"wp-block-image wp-image-9154 size-medium\"> <figure class=\"alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/09\/Woman-with-clear-braces-smiling-300x162.jpg\" alt=\"What are Damon braces?\" class=\"wp-image-8345\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Damon Clear braces are a less noticeable option<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>   <p>These braces, in theory, are the answer to everything that is inconvenient about regular braces. They are fitted just like regular braces, but they use self-ligating technology to straighten your teeth. The idea is that they are <strong>easier to clean, less painful, and require fewer in-office visits<\/strong>, but still straighten teeth effectively.<\/p>    <p>However, it&#8217;s interesting to note that a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.asa.org.uk\/rulings\/15-dental-a16-365575.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2017 ruling<\/a> by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) concluded that a particular dental clinic in Belfast could not make claims that Damon braces &#8220;provided faster or less painful treatment than traditional braces&#8221; because the evidence provided to support these claims was more anecdotal than scientific.<\/p>    <p>Still, new studies are being carried out all the time and the fact is that many dentist recommend Damon because they believe the system offers speedier treatment with less chairside time.<\/p>    <p>Damon Clear braces, which you can read more about below, also have the benefit of being barely noticeable.<\/p>    <p>Damon braces can treat the following orthodontic cases:<\/p>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li>Crooked teeth<\/li>    <li>Overcrowding<\/li>    <li>Mild to severe cases of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/malocclusion-crooked-teeth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">malocclusion<\/a><\/li> <\/ul>    <p>In other words, the majority of problems that can be treated with conventional brackets can also be treated with Damon self-ligating brackets. Damon also claim that their braces can enhance facial aesthetics during treatment.<\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of Damon braces<\/h3>    <p>There are <strong>two types of Damon System braces<\/strong> available in the UK. They both use self-ligating technology, but with differences in aesthetics and price.<\/p>    <h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Damon metal braces<\/h4>    <p>Damon metal braces look very similar to traditional metal braces. The visible difference is that traditional braces have small hooks for elastic bands to attach, whereas Damon braces do not. With the Damon System, you can also see the self-ligating sliding mechanism\u2014but only if you look very closely.&nbsp;<\/p>    <h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Damon Clear braces<\/h4>   <div class=\"wp-block-image wp-image-3977\"> <figure class=\"alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"248\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/08\/Damon-clear-e1502511666442-300x248.jpg\" alt=\"damon clear braces bracket\" class=\"wp-image-3977\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/08\/Damon-clear-e1502511666442-300x248.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/08\/Damon-clear-e1502511666442-150x124.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/08\/Damon-clear-e1502511666442-65x54.jpg 65w, https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/08\/Damon-clear-e1502511666442-220x182.jpg 220w, https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/08\/Damon-clear-e1502511666442-121x100.jpg 121w, https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/08\/Damon-clear-e1502511666442.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The clear brackets make braces less noticeable<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>   <p>Damon Clear braces are a type of ceramic brace. The bracket is transparent, so the braces are much less noticeable on your teeth. The difference between <strong>Damon ceramic braces<\/strong> and other brands is the lack of visible metal parts and elastic ties, making them even less noticeable.<\/p>    <h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Damon braces colours<\/h4>    <p>Can you get Damon braces with colours? Absolutely! The clear option is attractive to those who want their braces to go unnoticed, but if you are all about making a statement, your dentist can add coloured bands to Damon appliances.&nbsp;<\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do Damon braces work?<\/h3>    <p>Just like any orthodontic appliance, treatment begins with a visit to your orthodontist or dentist. They will create a mould or 3D scan of your teeth and from there plan your treatment.<\/p>    <p>The self-ligating technology means that these braces should require less frequent checkups than traditional braces, making treatment more convenient. There is also no sudden tightening, which can be one of the more painful aspects of wearing braces. Plus there are no unsightly elastic bands that can occasionally snap inside your mouth, requiring unplanned dentist visits.<\/p>    <p>They still take just as long to fit as traditional braces, though. In the video below you can see a Damon patient named Sally having her clear braces fitted. The fitting takes 1 hour 45 minutes, and following this her dentist shows her how to maintain good oral hygiene during her treatment.<\/p>    <figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><div style=\"display: contents;\" >  <div data-mode=\"normal\" data-oembed=\"1\" data-provider=\"youtube\" id=\"arve-youtube-brqml8h4yao\" class=\"arve\"> \t<div class=\"arve-inner\"> \t\t<div class=\"arve-embed arve-embed--has-aspect-ratio\"> \t\t\t<div class=\"arve-ar\" style=\"padding-top:56.250000%\"><\/div> \t\t\t<iframe allow=\"accelerometer &#039;none&#039;;autoplay &#039;none&#039;;camera &#039;none&#039;;ch-ua &#039;none&#039;;clipboard-read &#039;none&#039;;clipboard-write;display-capture &#039;none&#039;;encrypted-media &#039;none&#039;;gamepad &#039;none&#039;;geolocation &#039;none&#039;;gyroscope &#039;none&#039;;hid &#039;none&#039;;identity-credentials-get &#039;none&#039;;idle-detection &#039;none&#039;;keyboard-map &#039;none&#039;;local-fonts &#039;none&#039;;magnetometer &#039;none&#039;;microphone &#039;none&#039;;midi &#039;none&#039;;payment &#039;none&#039;;picture-in-picture;publickey-credentials-create &#039;none&#039;;publickey-credentials-get &#039;none&#039;;screen-wake-lock &#039;none&#039;;serial &#039;none&#039;;sync-xhr;usb &#039;none&#039;;window-management &#039;none&#039;;xr-spatial-tracking &#039;none&#039;;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" class=\"arve-iframe fitvidsignore\" credentialless data-arve=\"arve-youtube-brqml8h4yao\" data-lenis-prevent=\"\" data-src-no-ap=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/BRqML8H4yao?feature=oembed&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;autohide=1&amp;playsinline=0&amp;autoplay=0\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"0\" loading=\"lazy\" name=\"\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-presentation allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/BRqML8H4yao?feature=oembed&#038;iv_load_policy=3&#038;modestbranding=1&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autoplay=0\" title=\"\" width=\"0\"><\/iframe> \t\t\t \t\t<\/div> \t\t \t<\/div> \t \t \t <\/div> <\/div><\/figure>    <p>The creators of Damon System braces claim that their patients usually don&#8217;t need <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/tooth-extraction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">tooth extractions<\/a> or palatal expanders as part of their treatment.&nbsp;<\/p>    <p>Sometimes, orthodontists will need to use a power chain; a rubber band that connects your brackets. It pulls on your teeth with a lot more pressure than the self-ligating braces do on their own. This means that this part of the treatment can cause greater discomfort to patients &#8211; but on the plus side, it speeds up the whole process.<\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long do Damon braces take to work?<\/h3>    <p>You may start to see results quite quickly; sometimes within just a few weeks of starting treatment. Damon system braces can usually make treatment several months faster than traditional fixed braces. However, your overall treatment time will depend on the condition of your teeth to begin with.<\/p>    <figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilewhite.co.uk\/pages\/aligner-quiz?ref=mango_shake_limited\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/smile-assessment-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-47863\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/smile-assessment-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/smile-assessment-1-300x113.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/smile-assessment-1-1024x384.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/smile-assessment-1-768x288.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>    <h2 id=\"damon-braces-pros-and-cons\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Damon braces pros and cons<\/h2>    <p>Damon System braces have gained popularity quite steadily since their introduction to the UK market because of the various benefits they offer compared to other kinds of brace:<\/p>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Faster treatment:<\/strong> A study conducted by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/11683811\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bristol Dental Hospital and School<\/a> found that the average time for Damon braces treatment was less than with traditional braces.&nbsp;<\/li>    <li><strong>Aesthetics:<\/strong> You can get either clear or metal braces with the Damon System.

The Damon System gradually tightens over time, using a sliding mechanism, in order to straighten your teeth more gently. In many cases, this treatment can cause less discomfort and pain.&nbsp;<\/p>    <p>Another difference is that Damon braces cost more on average than traditional braces, with Damon metal braces costing between \u00a31,500 and \u00a36,000, whereas traditional metal braces cost between \u00a31,500 and \u00a33,000.&nbsp;<\/p>    <p><strong>Damon Clear braces<\/strong> offer similar benefits compared to other kinds of clear\/ceramic brace brackets. In addition, Damon Clear may be even less noticeable because the brackets have no metal hooks or elastic bands.&nbsp;<\/p>    <p>Clear and ceramic braces can cost around 50% more than their metal counterparts, regardless of whether they use self-ligating or conventional brackets. Here&#8217;s a summary of how the two braces systems compare:<\/p>    <div class=\"wptb-table-container wptb-table-30702\"><div class=\"wptb-table-container-matrix\" id=\"wptb-table-id-30702\" data-wptb-version=\"2.0.2\" data-wptb-pro-status=\"true\"><table class=\"wptb-preview-table wptb-element-main-table_setting-30702\" data-reconstraction=\"1\" style=\"border: 1px solid rgb(209, 209, 209);\" data-wptb-table-tds-sum-max-width=\"394\" data-wptb-cells-width-auto-count=\"3\" data-wptb-table-directives=\"eyJpbm5lckJvcmRlcnMiOnsiYWN0aXZlIjoiYWxsIiwiYm9yZGVyV2lkdGgiOiIxIiwiYm9yZGVyUmFkaXVzZXMiOnsiYWxsIjpmYWxzZX19fQ==\" data-wptb-extra-styles=\"LyogRW50ZXIgeW91ciBjdXN0b20gQ1NTIHJ1bGVzIGhlcmUgKi8=\" role=\"table\" data-table-columns=\"3\"><tbody><tr class=\"wptb-row\"><td class=\"wptb-cell\" data-y-index=\"0\" data-x-index=\"0\" style=\"border: 1px solid rgb(209, 209, 209);\" data-wptb-css-td-auto-width=\"true\"><div class=\"wptb-text-container wptb-ph-element wptb-element-text-31\"><div class=\"\" style=\"position: relative;\"><p><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/td><td class=\"wptb-cell\" data-y-index=\"0\" data-x-index=\"1\" style=\"border: 1px solid rgb(209, 209, 209);\" data-wptb-css-td-auto-width=\"true\"><div class=\"wptb-text-container wptb-ph-element wptb-element-text-32\" style=\"color: rgb(74, 85, 104);

If you want self-ligating braces like Damon, you will need to pay for private treatment.<\/p>    <p>If you need help figuring out how to finance your braces, have a look at our article on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/dental-financing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">dental financing<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>        <div class=\"featured-box featured_box-default\">          <div class=\"featured-box__title\">             Our #1 recommended teeth aligners        <\/div>          <div class=\"featured-box__content\">             <\/p>   <div class=\"wp-block-image\"> <figure class=\"alignright size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"410\" height=\"125\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/10\/newsmile-logo-multicolour-410x.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40577\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/10\/newsmile-logo-multicolour-410x.png 410w, https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/10\/newsmile-logo-multicolour-410x-300x91.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 410px) 100vw, 410px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>   <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Virtually Invisible:<\/strong> Enjoy the discretion of clear aligners without brackets or wires.<\/li>    <li><strong>Home Convenience:<\/strong> Start from home with an easy assessment and custom aligner kit.<\/li>    <li><strong>Wear Time Flexibility:<\/strong> Optimal results with 22+ hours daily wear, changing aligners every 2-3 weeks.<\/li>    <li><strong>Cost-Effective:<\/strong> Save up to 75% compared to traditional braces.<\/li>    <li><strong>Safe Materials:<\/strong> BPA and latex-free for your health and comfort.<\/li>    <li><strong>Quick Results:<\/strong> See changes in just 4-6 months.<\/li>    <li>Transform your smile today with NewSmile: <a href=\"https:\/\/newsmilelife.co.uk\/pages\/before-buy-faq\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Discover More<\/a><\/li> <\/ul>    <p>                <div class=\"featured-box__buttons\">                     <div class=\"mega-button\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.awin1.com\/cread.php?awinmid=92509&amp;awinaffid=849251&amp;campaign=Day+Aligner+Pricing&amp;clickref=Day+Aligner+Pricing&amp;ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.awin1.com%2Fcread.php%3Fawinmid%3D92509%26awinaffid%3D849251%26campaign%3DDay%2BAligner%2BPricing\" class=\"orange\" rel=\"nofollow\">Click here to order your kit<\/a><\/div>                <\/div>                     <\/div>      <\/div>          <h2 id=\"damon-braces-reviews\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Damon braces reviews<\/h2>    <p>So, do Damon braces really work, and are they worth paying the extra for?<\/p>    <p>Let&#8217;s have a look at some <strong>Damon braces reviews<\/strong>, to see what patients have to say:<\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nuffnang&#8217;s review: Quick results but not comfortable<\/h3>    <blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"> <p>&#8220;I&#8217;m a damon braces user and i&#8217;ve been wearing my braces for 1 year and 8 months&#8221;<\/p> <\/blockquote>    <p>At the time of <a href=\"http:\/\/imahappyidiot.blogspot.com\/2012\/04\/damon-braces-review.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">this review<\/a>, the patient had been wearing her braces for a year and eight months.

Positive reviews and research results claim that since they are self-ligating, tightening happens gradually, resulting in less pain and pressure. <\/p>    <p>Some studies, however, say that these types of braces don&#8217;t actually take less overall time than traditional braces. And in this article, you saw a review from a patient who needed multiple teeth extracted during her treatment with Damon braces.&nbsp;<\/p>    <p>Opting for Damon Clear makes treatment less obvious, but clear aligners deliver almost invisible teeth straightening and may cost less than Damon. <\/p>    <p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><\/p>   <div class=\"mega-button\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.awin1.com\/cread.php?awinmid=92509&amp;awinaffid=849251&amp;campaign=Day+Aligner+Pricing&amp;clickref=Day+Aligner+Pricing&amp;ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.awin1.com%2Fcread.php%3Fawinmid%3D92509%26awinaffid%3D849251%26campaign%3DDay%2BAligner%2BPricing\" class=\"orange\" rel=\"nofollow\">Get the best price for aligners!<\/a><\/div>    <h2 id=\"faqs\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQs<\/h2>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the difference between Damon and traditional braces?<\/h3>    <p>Damon braces are self-ligating braces. They are equipped with a sliding mechanism that attaches wires to the brackets. This mechanism helps the braces gradually move on their own over time. Traditional braces must be manually tightened over time and also use elastic bands to move teeth. The Damon process is said to be less painful than traditional braces.&nbsp;<\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are Damon braces painful?<\/h3>    <p>Some patients report <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/en\/mouth-ulcer-treatment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ulcers and mouth sores<\/a> just like with regular braces, while others say that they are indeed less painful since they exert less pressure during the straightening process. A lot will depend on the type of tooth movement required in the first place.<\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can I find a dentist that specialises in Damon braces in the UK?<\/h3>    <p>The next time you are in for a visit, you can ask your dentist if they offer the Damon System.
