Black Orthodontics
Traditional braces use brackets and archwires to move teeth into place over time. With traditional braces, you return to the orthodontist each month to get the brackets and wires re-tightened.
If you’re looking for a convenient alternative, Damon braces are self-ligating, which means they use a sliding mechanism to keep a lighter archwire in place. This system also forgoes the use of orthodontic elastic bands. Since there’s less hardware in your mouth with Damon braces, properly cleaning your teeth is much easier.
