Damon Braces

Damon braces use the latest in orthodontic technologies to move the teeth in fewer appointments with more comfort and faster treatment results! Brackets are bonded to the front of each tooth and connected by the wires, which guide the teeth into their correct positions. Patients can personalize their braces with colored elastics, adding a unique touch to their orthodontic journey.

Clear Braces

Ceramic braces are designed for minimal visibility as they are made from clear materials that seamlessly blend with natural tooth color. Despite being less noticeable, they require diligent oral hygiene to prevent discoloration from pigmented food and drinks. Their larger size supports effective alignment by accommodating the necessary brackets.

Invisalign Aligners

Invisalign® offers virtually invisible, removable aligners to gently and comfortably straighten teeth. The aligners are removable for eating and oral care, making brushing and flossing easier. Without metal, they are comfortable and allow for flexible scheduling, as many visits can be monitored virtually!
