What is Braces/Damon Braces in Portugal

Braces, including Damon braces, are orthodontic devices used to straighten teeth and correct misalignments of the bite. Traditional braces consist of metal brackets that are bonded to the teeth and connected by wires and elastic bands. Damon braces are a type of self-ligating braces that use a slide mechanism instead of elastic bands to connect the wires to the brackets, allowing for more efficient tooth movement and potentially shorter treatment times.

Each individual shall start by a first phase and compare quotes and options:consultation with an orthodontist, a dental specialist who specializes in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of dental and facial irregularities. During this consultation, the orthodontist will evaluate the patient's dental and facial anatomy, assess the alignment of the teeth and jaws, and discuss the patient's goals and expectations for treatment. Prior to starting treatment, the orthodontist will conduct a comprehensive examination of the patient's teeth, gums, and jaws, as well as take diagnostic records such as X-rays, photographs, and dental impressions. This information will help the orthodontist develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to the patient's specific needs and goals. The consultation is done nowadays online with photos or through Whatsapp video.

Then the orthodontist will clean and prepare the teeth before bonding the brackets to the front surface of each tooth using a special dental adhesive. For Damon braces, the orthodontist will also insert the Damon brackets onto the teeth. Once the brackets are in place, the orthodontist will thread the archwire through the brackets and secure it with small, self-ligating clips or doors.

Length of the treatment and adjustment appointments: Throughout the course of treatment, the patient will need to visit the orthodontist periodically for adjustment appointments. During these appointments, the orthodontist will make any necessary adjustments to the braces, such as changing the archwire size or tension, to continue guiding the teeth into their desired positions.
 
In general braces, including Damon braces, are a highly effective orthodontic treatment option for correcting dental and facial irregularities and achieving a straighter, more aligned smile. It's important to follow the orthodontist's instructions closely, attend all scheduled appointments, and practice good oral hygiene habits to achieve optimal results and minimize the risk of complications. Nowadays it is worth travelling, and many parents do that for their teenagers, if the protocol is not too heavy. Just think that in general the metal braces represent not more than 2% of the final cost so human management is the main cost.
