Fixed Braces: The Damon System
What are the benefits of the Damon system?
- The archwire is loosely attached to the brackets with a small sliding mechanism, allowing the teeth to move more easily into their correct positions.
- The special “memory” metal wires apply gentle, continuous forces, making the treatment more comfortable.
- Tooth extractions can often be avoided because the system allows for more effective arch expansion.
- Tooth movement is more precise, so treatment usually takes less time and requires fewer adjustments.
- Attention is given not only to the teeth but also to the overall harmony of the face.
- There’s no need for elastic ties, which makes the appliance easier to keep clean and prevents discoloration during treatment.

Invisible clear aligner orthodontic treatment
Clear aligner orthodontic treatment is recommended for adults with high aesthetic expectations who can cooperate well during the treatment. The aligners are almost completely invisible. They are easy to remove and do not interfere with eating or brushing your teeth. They are made from a special transparent plastic designed for medical use.
How are clear aligners made?
Based on a digital impression of the teeth, the dental laboratory designs the treatment plan using specialized computer software. It determines how many aligners are needed to achieve the desired result. Every detail of the 3D virtual treatment plan is reviewed with the patient. Once everything is confirmed and the patient approves the plan, the production of the invisible aligners begins.
Benefits:
- Almost completely invisible.
- Can be easily removed at any time.
- Easy to keep clean.
- Comfortable and fit perfectly to the teeth.
- Do not interfere with eating or brushing.
- Visible results can be achieved within just a few months.
How to wear the aligners?
To achieve the desired result, the aligners must be worn 20–22 hours a day. They should always be removed while eating and brushing.
Myofunctional appliances - trainers
To achieve a beautiful face and an attractive smile, simply straightening the teeth is often not enough. In many cases, functional issues with the tongue and the orofacial muscles are the underlying cause. These can be caused by factors such as insufficient chewing, improper swallowing, mouth breathing, or bad habits. Orthodontic treatment will be more effective and the results more lasting if we correct the misalignments using trainers and, if necessary, with the help of a speech therapist.
Wearing Braces and Oral Hygiene
Proper oral hygiene is especially important when wearing braces. Regular, thorough brushing using the correct technique helps prevent tooth decay and gum disease. At CitySmile, every patient receives a personalized hygiene kit, and we also help teach them how to use the special tools. We recommend professional dental hygiene treatment (scaling and polishing) every six months.
Frequently asked questions about adult orthodontic treatment
No. As long as your gums are healthy, treatment can be performed regardless of age.
Treatment usually takes 12–24 months, but this varies from person to person. It depends on the severity of the misalignment, the type of appliance chosen, and your cooperation.
Not necessarily. Clear aligners and aesthetic brackets are particularly discreet options.
It usually takes about a week to get used to wearing new braces. During this time, patients learn how to brush their teeth properly with braces and what foods they can eat and how to eat them.
It usually takes about a week to get used to braces. During this time, teenagers learn how to brush properly with braces and how and what they can eat. After a fixed appliance is bonded, mild tension may be felt for two to three days, which later subsides.
A fixed appliance generally does not interfere with speech. Removable aligners may cause slight discomfort during the first few days. For sports—especially contact sports—we recommend a special mouthguard designed to fit over braces, protecting the teeth, gums, and appliance.
With fixed braces, it’s best to avoid hard foods (such as crunchy baked goods) and sticky foods (like gummy candies, caramel, or chewing gum). Fruits and vegetables should be eaten in smaller, bite-sized pieces.
Usually every 1–2 months. The frequency depends on the type of treatment and the stage of progress.
At the first visit, we discuss the your needs and expectations regarding orthodontic treatment. We examine the teeth and assess how they fit the facial profile. We also inform you about the possible treatment options.
We take X-rays and digital impressions (scans) of the teeth, as well as photos of the teeth and face. Based on these records, we create an individualized treatment plan.
Before orthodontic therapy, the teeth must be in good condition. In addition to scaling, any decayed teeth must be treated. We inform the patient about the necessary preparatory steps during the first consultation.
Fixed braces are bonded to the teeth, while removable appliances are delivered after the necessary adjustments. We provide comprehensive guidance on how to clean and wear the appliance and schedule the next follow-up visit.
It is very important to attend all recommended follow-up appointments. Orthodontic treatment is only safe and effective under consistent professional supervision.
When the desired result is achieved, the fixed appliance is removed.
After any orthodontic treatment, it is crucial to maintain the new tooth positions. To ensure this, we use removable or fixed retention appliances. After removing the braces, we take a digital impression for the removable retainer or bond a thin wire to the inner surface of the teeth for fixed retention. We then explain how and for how long the retainer should be worn, and how often follow-up visits are needed to preserve the treatment result in the long term.
