Brace yourself for a beautiful smile from OrthoTime
Brace yourself for a beautiful smile from OrthoTime in American Fork, Utah. At Dr. Jeremy Watson's orthodontic practice, we are dedicated to crafting stunning, healthy smiles for children and teens through our expertise in orthodontic braces. Our goal is not only to straighten teeth but also to enhance overall dental health and boost self-confidence.
Metal self-ligating braces for children
At OrthoTime, we advocate for the use of metal self-ligating Damon Braces for children and young teens. These braces are renowned for their efficiency and shorter treatment times, which is a significant benefit for kids and their parents.
Unlike traditional braces that require regular tightening, self-ligating braces utilize a sliding mechanism that reduces friction and speeds up the alignment process. This technology also makes it easier for children to maintain good oral hygiene during treatment, as fewer components trap food and plaque.
Damon Braces System clear braces
For older teenagers, we offer the innovative Damon Braces System in clear form. These braces blend the mechanical benefits of traditional metal braces with advanced clear materials that make the braces nearly invisible.
This option is perfect for teens who are self-conscious about their appearance. It provides a discreet yet effective treatment solution. The Damon System’s clear braces ensure that teens can smile confidently throughout their orthodontic journey.
Understanding self-ligating braces
You might wonder, what exactly are self-ligating braces, and how do they differ from traditional ones?
Traditional braces typically require elastic bands to secure the archwires in place. These elastics add extra pressure and friction, hindering tooth movement and prolonging treatment time.
In contrast, the Damon System Braces we use at OrthoTime feature a unique self-ligating design. Each bracket has a small sliding gate that securely holds the wire, allowing it to move freely. This reduces the pressure exerted on the teeth and decreases discomfort during treatment.
With self-ligating braces, our patients experience a smoother, more comfortable path to a perfect smile.
At OrthoTime, we are committed to providing the most advanced and patient-friendly orthodontic solutions. Whether you choose metal or clear braces, our team is here to support you every step of the way.
