  • Hmm...

No, Damon braces are designed to support and encourage a fuller, more natural forward facial profile rather than stopping forward growth. Unlike traditional braces that sometimes require tooth extraction or heavy retraction, the Damon System uses low-friction technology to expand the arches, which can lead to better aesthetics and a more forward, natural-looking smile.

Here is how Damon braces relate to facial growth:
  • Encourages Development: The Damon system acts like a "memory wire," which can expand dental arches. This acts to fill out the smile, which can provide a fuller, more forward, and more natural profile.
  • Low Friction & Gentle Pressure: Because they use light, consistent force to move teeth, they often avoid the "retraction" (pushing teeth backward) that can occur with traditional, tighter braces.
  • Avoids Traditional Constraints: Damon braces often eliminate the need for extractions and palatal expanders, allowing the teeth to move to a position that better supports facial tissue.
  • Wide Arch Forms: These braces use wider arch forms to help widen the dental arches and move teeth into a more aesthetic, outward position.

Key Takeaway: While all orthodontic treatment should be planned carefully by a professional, Damon braces are generally used for expansion and providing a better, more forward-oriented, and aesthetic facial result.

brother anemo no, your maxilla will move regardless of your teeth alignment, teeth move from space from their sockets and the gum in which they're lodged, so-called "forward growth" is just the natural development of the first front facial bones of the skull

No, and they can in fact promote a wider palette due to the different archwire compared to traditional

ok and when i look up orthos near me, most of them say the damon system, is the only difference between damon and trad braces is the elastic bands?
