The Damon System


What is it?

The Damon System is a breakthrough in orthodontic bracket design.  It eliminates “tying” the wire into the bracket slot with colored elastic rings which grab the wire like “parking brakes” and cause binding to occur at each tooth.  The Damon System brackets have a built-in “sliding door” that engages the wire, allowing it to slide more freely in your mouth.  This frictionless interface between the wire and the bracket slot equals rapid tooth movement with more patient comfort.

Why all the excitement?

Dr. Yorek feels that the revolutionary design of the Damon System bracket is the most dramatic innovation in orthodontics that he has seen in his 25 years in this profession.  Research has shown that the bacterial level in the mouth is much less in the patients using the Damon System.  Since the amount of friction in the Damon System is several hundred times less than that with conventional brackets, patients do not experience “getting my braces tightened”!  This new system takes full advantage of the new low-force wires which use light forces that are “biologically compatible”.  They work with your body for more gentle and continuous tooth movement.

It’s about Time!

More and more adults are attracted to the Damon System because treatment can be done in less time with fewer office visits. In the five years that he has been using the Damon System, Dr. Yorek has seen a 40% increase in the number of adults entering orthodontic treatment.
