Services
Damon Smile
Damon Smile utilizes passive self-ligating braces that reduce pressure on teeth while accelerating treatment. This system combines tie-less brackets with high-tech archwires to create beautiful, lasting smiles with fewer adjustments. Patients benefit from enhanced comfort, easier dental hygiene, and treatment times that can be up to six months faster than traditional braces.
Damon Clear
Damon Clear offers discreet orthodontic treatment with stain-resistant ceramic brackets. This aesthetic solution provides the same efficiency as metal braces while maintaining a natural appearance. Patients enjoy faster treatment times, reduced discomfort, and a more confident smile throughout the correction process.
AcceleDent Optima
AcceleDent Optima uses SoftPulse Technology to accelerate tooth movement by up to 50% while reducing discomfort. This FDA-cleared device complements braces or aligners through daily 20-minute use. The wireless system includes tracking features and has been clinically proven to enhance treatment outcomes for patients of all ages.
Two-Phase Treatment
Two-phase treatment addresses jaw development and dental alignment in growing children. Phase one creates proper space for permanent teeth, while phase two ensures optimal positioning. This approach prevents future extractions, improves facial aesthetics, and establishes a stable foundation for lifelong oral health.
Common Treatments
We treat various dental issues including crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and missing teeth. Our solutions combine traditional techniques with modern technology to correct alignment problems. Each treatment plan addresses both functional improvements and aesthetic enhancement for comprehensive smile transformation.
