Speed Tested – Rapid Orthodontic Treatments

Wednesday, January 25th, 2017

Time is a luxury many of us don’t have in this day and age. Thankfully, if you’re hoping to achieve a dream smile in weeks or months rather than years, we have good news. Here are some of the best fast-acting orthodontic treatments on the market.

The Inman Aligner

The Inman Aligner is a rapid removable brace, which takes just 16 weeks to straighten the teeth. This innovative device is made from a coiled spring and a metal bar, which generate forces that push and pull the teeth, gently moving them into the desired position. This treatment is ideally suited to patients who require limited movement. It is not suited to those with more complex needs.

MTM No Trace Brace

If you’re looking for a treatment that offers both speed and style, look no further. The MTM No Trace Brace is a lingual brace system, which enables you to have treatment without anyone being able to see your braces. Unlike traditional fixed braces, these fixed appliances are secured onto the back of the teeth. This means that they’re invisible when you smile. This system is designed for patients with minor orthodontic problems. It typically takes around 12-24 weeks to produce beautifully straight smiles.

Six Month Smiles

Six Month Smiles is a speedy fixed brace treatment, which is geared towards those who have minor or moderate problems involving the teeth at the front of the mouth. Typically, fixed braces take at least 12 months to address issues, but with this treatment, you can achieve amazing results in half the time. These braces are also more discreet than traditional metal braces, and they use friction-free technology.

Damon Braces

Damon Braces are a rapid alternative to traditional fixed braces for patients who have complex needs. These braces can achieve significant tooth movement, and treatment times are around 4-6 months faster than conventional fixed braces. They are also more discreet and more comfortable.

The Top 3 Features of Damon Braces

Thursday, September 10th, 2015

If ever there was an example of how far orthodontics has come it’s Damon Braces. This advanced orthodontic system offers an innovative alternative to traditional fixed braces for those with complex issues that require significant tooth movement. If you’re interested in Damon Braces, here are three key features to make your decision nice and easy:

Sliding brackets: Damon Braces feature unique sliding brackets, which are easier to clean and maintain than traditional square brackets. Often, wearing braces increases the risk of oral health diseases, as bacteria and food debris become trapped in the bands, brackets and wires. With this treatment, you can enjoy good oral health, as well as easy cleaning.

Self-ligating technology: Damon Braces work quickly and comfortably. They use friction-free self-ligating technology to accelerate the movement of the teeth and reduce treatment times, while also minimising discomfort. The forces, which are generated by the wires and brackets, are powerful yet gentle. These braces are also free from metal and elastic ties, reducing the chance of sore gums and irritation.

Subtle aesthetics: many people worry about having braces because of the aesthetic impact on their smile. However, with Damon Braces this is not a concern. Damon Braces are much finer and more delicate than traditional train-track braces and the brackets are made from ceramic, which is designed to match the natural tooth shade. Although the braces are not invisible like clear aligners, they are much more discreet than most other fixed braces and they are barely noticeable when you smile.

To find out if Damon Braces are the perfect choice for you, call now and book your consultation.

Damon Braces is one of the best orthodontic systems on the market, but what’s all the fuss about and could Damon Braces be the ideal choice for you?

The ins and outs

Damon Braces essentially are fixed braces that use modern technology to minimise pain and reduce treatment time. Unlike conventional fixed braces, Damon Braces have self-ligating wires along with sliding brackets that reduce friction and increase the speed of tooth movement. They are considerably smaller and more discreet than ordinary fixed braces and they allow a huge amount of movement, which makes them a viable option for patients with complex orthodontic needs.

These braces are also able to create space, which means that most patients do not need to have teeth extracted before they start treatment.

What’s the treatment time?

Treatment time for Damon Braces varies according to the amount of movement required and what kind of issues the individual patient has. Typically, treatment with Damon Braces is around 4-6 months faster than ordinary fixed braces. When you have your consultation and your dentist has evaluated your needs, they will be happy to discuss treatment times with you.

Who is the ideal candidate for Damon Braces?

Appropriate for patients with a wide range of orthodontic problems, Damon Braces provide a really effective solution for problems with the bite, as well as the spacing and alignment of the teeth. They often provide an alternative to conventional fixed braces for patients who need a lot of movement and therefore cannot benefit from removable aligners.

Why Should I Choose Damon Braces In Liverpool?

Saturday, May 3rd, 2014

Damon Braces is an amazing, modern orthodontic system, which provides an alternative to traditional fixed braces for patients with moderate or complex orthodontic issues. These braces use state of the art technology and discreet materials to provide fast, painless treatment.

About Damon Braces

Damon Braces are very advanced fixed braces, which utilise the latest technology to reduce treatment time and enhance patient comfort. The braces are light and the brackets use a sliding mechanism to move the teeth rapidly. The wires are also self-ligating, which helps to reduce friction and accelerate the movement of the teeth. Damon Braces do not have any metal or elastic bands, which can irritate the gums, and they usually produce results around 4-6 months quicker than conventional fixed braces.

Damon Braces are suitable for most patients, including those who need intensive treatment and a lot of tooth movement. They are more discreet than normal fixed braces because they are made from ceramics and matched to the colour of the teeth.

These braces are also easy to clean and maintain and there is a lower risk of oral health problems because there are no bands and ties, which tend to become breeding grounds for bacteria.

Are Damon Braces better than invisible aligners?

Damon Braces are much more discreet than traditional fixed braces, but they are not invisible, like clear aligners. However, they do offer many benefits and are an excellent solution for patients who have more complex needs. Some issues, such as severe underbite or overbite, cannot be corrected with aligners. Fixed braces provide greater support for the teeth and they are also guaranteed to work without being dependent on the patient. With removable aligners, the patient has control over the success of treatment and results cannot be guaranteed if the patient fails to follow instructions.

The Benefits Of Modern Fixed Braces In The City Of Liverpool

Thursday, January 16th, 2014

Fixed braces have gained a negative, and much undue, reputation: Rather than conjuring images of versatility and reliability, fixed braces are, for some reason, associated with 80’s teen-comedy outcasts, much like the pun is associated with bad-uncle jokes. Punning was good enough for Shakespeare, James Joyce and Jesus and, if we are to take this comparison to its natural conclusion, fixed braces are equally appropriate for the most sophisticated pundit. Allow me to argue my case.

Firstly, what is a fixed brace?

A fixed brace is a brace which, during treatment, is not removed and they are available in a myriad of shapes, colours and constructs! All fixed braces consist of tiny buttons, referred to as brackets, which are fixed to your teeth. Metallic rings, known as bands, can also be fastened to your back teeth. A thin wire, called ‘archwire’, is then used to keep all this together along with the help of some tiny elastic bands, called modules, or some minute wires, known as ligatures.

That’s nice and all, but why opt for them?

Well, research indicates they are more effective: A recent study implied that patients who received fixed brace treatment where happier with the outcome of their smile than those who used alternatives. Importantly, they also take some crushing responsibility away from their wearer: Removable aligners, the main competitor with fixed braces, can be taken out for eating food, cleaning them or for brief social occasions. If you forget to put them back in, however, you can set your treatment back by a substantial amount and incur greater costs. With fixed braces, you never run this risk as they can’t be taken out!

Low-friction variants

The friction of fixed braces is a common, albeit minor, complaint as it can cause some slight irritation. At Liverpool Dental Spa, we offer Damon and In-Ovation R braces which not only reduce the friction issue, but can also reduce treatment time.

Call us

Fixed braces are the classic form of orthodontic treatment, and with good reason! If you interested in exploring the fixed brace treatments we offer, then please call us at Liverpool Dental Spa.

What are the advantages of Damon Braces?

Damon Braces are suitable for a wide range of patients and they are quicker and more discreet than traditional fixed braces.

Unlike conventional fixed braces, Damon Braces do not use elastic ties or metal bands and therefore there is no need for regular adjustments, which are often very painful for patients. The braces use self-ligating technology, which prevents friction and gum irritation, and sliding brackets, which apply pressure to the teeth without causing pain.

In the vast majority of cases patients do not need to have teeth extracted before Damon Braces treatment, which is welcome news for patients, especially those who suffer from dental anxiety.

Why should I consider Damon Braces?

If you have moderate or major orthodontic issues and you are looking for a fast, painless and discreet treatment, Damon Braces are an ideal option for Liverpool patients. The braces use technology, which not only increases the speed of tooth movement, but also prevents pain and the brackets are small, delicate and tooth-coloured for optimum discretion. The braces may not be invisible like some aligners, but they are very discreet and they have a wide range of benefits for patients. Fixed braces are also faster and more reliable than removable braces and there is no need to worry about misplacing them or remembering to change them for the next aligner in the treatment process.

Discreet Straightening With Damon Braces In Liverpool

Thursday, February 28th, 2013

Orthodontic conditions, such as crooked, protruding, overcrowded and irregularly spaced teeth, may be genetic or may result from oral habits. At Liverpool Dental Spa, we offer individuals discreet teeth straightening treatments for mild to severe misaligned teeth.

Misaligned teeth may not only detract from appearance but may impact nutritional choices, communication ability and confidence. Therefore we offer trusted modern braces solutions, such as Damon braces, as part of our holistic approach to patient care.

The Damon braces system

The Damon braces system is designed for ultimate discretion and comfort. Custom-made, the tooth-coloured ceramic brackets blend with the existing teeth, applying gentle corrective orthodontic force to straighten teeth while allowing for normal activities.

A modern alternative to traditional metal braces, Damon braces are fixed in place without metal or elastic ties. There is no discomfort as experienced with the older metal braces systems because Damon braces are formed using a friction-free, self-ligating mechanism.

The self-ligating technology is made with slide mechanism action between the ceramic brackets and arch wires enabling normal oral function without irritation or undue pressure. Meals may be enjoyed for good nutrition with better communication ability when socialising with others.

Discreet braces treatment

Throughout treatment, wearers feel more confident as their Damon braces are not obvious to others and they are able to maintain a healthy oral hygiene standard. Self-image is preserved and results are evident four to six months sooner than alternate fixed braces systems.

Damon braces are a modern treatment for not only mild but severe orthodontic conditions impacting bite. Where alternate systems may not be suitable or may take longer to give teeth straightening results, Damon braces is a choice solution.

Our Orthodontist assesses each person’s unique oral structures to determine the right teeth straightening treatment. Information is provided about different braces systems that may be removable or fixed like Damon braces with benefits, risks and costs.

What makes Damon Braces easy to use?

Friction free and self-ligating technology is used in Damon Braces, and it does not use elastic or metal ties. The main reasons for gum irritation with braces are ties, as they require regular tightening. The brackets used in the Damon Braces system using a sliding mechanism to holds the wires. This allows optimum movement for the tooth. The treatment period with Damon Braces will be around 5-6 months shorter than other fixed brace systems.
