We offer four different types of braces. See below for a description of each.
MetalMetal braces are the most common type. They are made of high-grade stainless steel. Today's metal braces are smaller, more comfortable and more attractive. |

ClearCeramic braces are made of translucent (clear) material. They are most popular with adult patience, due to their cosmetic appeal. The only drawback to ceramic brackets is that they are more fragile, and the elastic ties can discolor between orthodontic visits. |

DamonDamon braces were invited by Dr. Dwight Damon. The Damon bracket utilizes (sliding door) technology known as "self-ligation" that allows the wire to slide back and forth within the bracket. No elastic or steel ties are used with Damon brackets. This technology creates less friction and results in greater comfort for the patient. In addition, Damon braces often reduce both treatment time and the number of adjustments that are usually performed. Visit the Damon System website |
