Damon Braces in Spokane
Damon Orthodontics provides the newest technology in braces. We work with DAMON ULTIMA self-ligating brackets. Damon braces are a tie-less system, which allows for less friction and faster tooth movement. Traditional braces often require the use of palatal expanders as well as the removal of teeth to create space. Treatment time is shorter, and fewer appointments are required. Thus, saving you time from your busy schedule. Also, Damon braces are known to provide the best looking smiles!
Damon braces differ from traditional braces because they use a self-ligating mechanism, meaning the memory wires slowly slide and adjust to the brackets. This leads to a more natural progression of the teeth’s movement due to the light continuous forces that are applied. In contrast, regular braces use heavier forces that are more intermittent and need to be adjust more frequently . Instead of using traditional rubber bands to hold the brackets together, Damon braces use a sliding technique to hold the wire in place. This provides the patient to move their mouths more freely and quickly.
How Much Do Damon Braces Cost?
The average cost of Damon Braces varies depending on the starting condition of a patient’s teeth. Dr Damon will be able to access your needs at your initial consultation visit. Our treatment coordinator will then provide you with the financial breakdowns based on your treatment plan.
Damon braces are also covered by many different dental insurance plans, making it accessible to our patients. Contact your provider to determine the cost coverage of Damon braces.
The Most Comfortable Orthodontic Treatment Ever
For years, the traditional thinking was that heavy forces based on what a patient could tolerate were needed to move teeth. By creating the new Damon
Ultima System of high-technology braces and wires, very light natural forces can now be applied to move teeth at a rate never seen before in orthodontics. This means less pressure on your teeth for more comfortable treatment.

Damon braces have been reported to provide less pressure and friction on the teeth, making the braces experience much more comfortable. According to a study conducted by Tagawa, Damon patients reported 60% less discomfort in comparison to patients with traditional braces. Patients that have traditional braces tend to experience higher levels of discomfort due to extreme tightening that is meant to align the teeth. With the sliding mechanism that Damon braces utilize, doctors are able to apply less force to yield the same results.
