Damon stainless steel fixed braces offer several advantages over other types of orthodontic appliance:

• Damon appliances are less reliant on the extraction of adult teeth to achieve tooth alignment.

• The teeth usually move more quickly and so the treatment time is shorter. 

• The intervals between adjustment appointments are usually longer (8-10 weeks rather than 6-8 weeks associated with other fixed appliance systems). For some patients these longer appointment intervals can mean less time missed from school.
