DAMON BRACES

The Damon Braces System offers beautifully straight teeth like regular braces, only in a fraction of the time. By using self-ligating (tie-less) brackets and a high tech arch wire, the Damon system not only offers faster results, it also requires fewer adjustments and causes minimal discomfort. If you’re interested in straightening your smile but hesitate because you’re concerned with how orthodontics will affect your lifestyle, ask us about the Damon Braces System.

Real Orthodontics Success Story

Patient had previous orthodontic treatment, and retainers were used to maintain alignment, however, the upper retainer broke and upper teeth shifted out of place. In addition, the patient lost an upper front tooth causing the other teeth to shift even more. Embarrassed about her smile, the patient came to our practice because we could address all her dentistry issues.

We started with the foundation of her oral health, performing gum treatment and restoring cavities. The next step involved orthodontics on her upper arch to properly align the teeth, which took about 3 months. Since there was not enough room to place implants to replace the missing upper teeth, we added a natural looking porcelain crown and bridge work.

The results gave the patient a boost to her confidence. She can’t stop smiling now!

ClearCorrect

With ClearCorrect orthodontic treatment, you can have the beautiful, straight teeth you’ve always wanted, only without the wires, bands, and brackets associated with traditional braces. Instead, Doctors Holsinger and Higgins will provide a series of customized clear aligner trays to gently guide your teeth into position. Just some of the benefits include:

Discretion

Because the aligner trays are clear, no one has to know that you’re undergoing orthodontics.

Freedom

Time for lunch? Then simply take out your aligner trays before you eat. Because they are removable, ClearCorrect aligners give you the freedom to eat what you want.

Simplicity

No need to invest in floss threaders, picks, or other accoutrement associated with traditional braces. Instead, simply remove your aligner trays to brush and floss as usual.

INVISALIGN

With Invisalign, you can have the straight smile you’ve always wanted without the use of brackets, bands, and wires. How? Invisalign uses a series of clear plastic aligner trays to gently guide your teeth into the desired position; no one ever has to know that you’re wearing braces. What’s more is that Invisalign aligner trays are removed while eating and cleaning, which means you can eat what you want and brush and floss with ease. Why put off orthodontic treatment when Invisalign offers beautiful results that our patients love?
