Self-ligating Damon System braces at Lumi Dental: faster treatment, fewer appointments, and more comfortable than traditional braces.
Adjustments typically every 8–10 weeks vs 4–6 weeks with traditional braces. Fewer visits, same results.
No elastic ties means lower bracket friction. Many patients report less post-adjustment discomfort than with conventional braces.
With plans starting from $500 per month, you can get started sooner rather than later.
Fixed braces address crowding, bite correction and rotations that may not be achievable with clear aligners alone.
Traditional braces use elastic ties to hold the wire, creating friction and requiring more frequent tightening. The Damon System uses a passive self-ligating slide mechanism, allowing the wire to move freely. This reduces friction, pressure on teeth, and in-chair adjustment time.
Yes. A systematic review published in the American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics found self-ligating brackets are associated with reduced chairside time and produce outcomes comparable to or better than conventional systems. In plain terms: fewer appointments, less friction on your teeth, and results you can count on.
