Anyone with damon braces!! Question?!


Question: Anyone with damon braces!! Question?
I wanted to know about the damon braces. I know that you dont get the elastic ligatures on the damon braces. But can they put them on if you want them?? has been got the elastic ligatures put on their damon braces??

Answers:

i do use damon braces....yup, ur very right..u dnt need the elastic ligaures on them because they are amongst the advanced type of braces around..those elastic ligatures are what causes friction thereby making movement slower...for this reason, other types of braces that use the elastic ligatures need to be frequently adjusted (once everymonth)..but with damon, especially if its the self ligating, it allows the achievement of straight teeth through a faster and more comfortable means with fewer adjutments and hospital visits...mine personally-once in 8-10 weeks depending...rather than the elastic ligatures, these Damon braces allows the wire to slide back and forth right within the bracket. this is considered a really good benefit against the elastic ligatures type..... lack of the elastic ligatures i.e going by the self ligating system by damon braces also enables low-force, low-friction orthodontics through an excellent system that provides premier performance and control.

PS: i dont think the orthodontist would put the elastic ligatures on damon braces because they dont work together you know..the elastic ligatures ARE MAINLY FOR THE SIMPLE TRADITIONAL BRACES .......whats the point of the damon braces which are considered one of the latest and faster means if they needed elastic ligatures which causes friction and slowness of removing the braces? you see, they dont work hand-in-hand...

Hope i helped...and I do ask my ortho a whole lot of questions cause the money is much you know...let me feel like i spent the money well...lol..
