Trusted Treatment

Thanks to these innovative new braces, achieving your perfect smile can be faster and easier than you ever thought possible at Farrow & Dewbre Orthodontics!

The Damon Smile Difference

We are pleased to offer our Farrow & Dewbre Orthodontics patients passive self-ligating Damon Smile braces. Damon braces use a slide mechanism to hold the archwire, reducing the amount of pressure exerted on the teeth and allowing the teeth to move more freely, quickly, and comfortably.

Damon Smile braces are completely tie-less, meaning there are no elastic ties to worry about.

Tie-less braces help Dr. Farrow and Dr. Dewbre reduce the amount of pressure placed on your teeth and require fewer adjustments because there are no elastics to replace.

Damon Smile facilitates healthy tooth movement with complete control. By combining tie-less brackets and high-tech archwires, Dr. Farrow and Dr. Dewbre can minimize discomfort and create beautiful smiles that last a lifetime.

The System Makes the Smile

Damon Smile is not just about revolutionary braces and wires; it's a whole new way of treating our patients at Farrow & Dewbre Orthodontics!

Technology

Damon tie-less braces eliminate the need for elastic or metal "ties." With Damon braces you can experience treatment without tightening.

Convenience

Damon braces are designed to be discreet, comfortable, and easy to keep clean. Without the elastic ties, which attract and collect plaque, Damon braces make dental hygiene easy during treatment.

Plus, Damon Smile is available in clear brackets for patients in Western Oklahoma who want a great smile without sacrificing aesthetics.

Comfort

Even though Damon Smile works more quickly than traditional braces, the use of gentle, low-friction force means less discomfort for you.

Metal Braces FAQ

How do braces work?

Before applying the brackets, your doctor and the team at Farrow & Dewbre Orthodontics will collect photos and X-rays of your mouth. Sometimes we’ll use our iTero Element scanner to scan each of your teeth and the layout of your gums and mouth.

If necessary, this process takes 10-15 minutes and provides an extremely accurate 3D view of your mouth.

After the X-Ray and optional scan, Dr. Farrow or Dr. Dewbre will use this information to create your customized treatment plan. This will include how each tooth needs to be moved to achieve the best possible position.

Your doctor will decide how to place the brackets based on this information. For example, if you have some teeth that need to be tilted, the placement of those brackets will be different than the placement of brackets for teeth that need to be turned.

Once the brackets have been attached, Dr. Farrow or Dr. Dewbre will insert the wire. Bends in the wire will provide different types of pressure on different teeth. A bend in the wire is how most orthodontists cause specific and precise movements.

What can I expect from today’s metal braces?

At Farrow & Dewbre Orthodontics, we’re proud to offer the latest braces technology to our patients of all ages in Edmond, Oklahoma City, Clinton, Deer Creek, and surrounding areas!

Metal braces have had a reputation for being awkward and obvious. However, thanks to modern orthodontics, you’ll benefit from versions that are smaller, less conspicuous, and more comfortable than ever before.

Sleeker brackets and lighter wires improve the appearance and feel of these braces. This means you’ll have less irritation in your mouth.

Effective Treatment for Complex Cases

Braces are great at fixing complex tooth issues. They can work faster at closing gaps and aligning teeth than other treatments might. This can potentially shorten your treatment time.

Metal braces are cost-effective because they don’t require some of the more complex technology or expensive equipment that newer treatments do. The strength, durability, and affordability of traditional metal braces keep them the top treatment for orthodontic patients in Western Oklahoma, year after year!

How long will I be in braces?

Your time in braces varies on the person, but treatment time with Damon Smile at Farrow & Dewbre Orthodontics is typically much faster than with conventional braces.

Also, far fewer appointments are required during treatment, making your Damon experience convenient and hassle-free.

The average time spent in metal braces is around 18 to 22 months but could be shorter or longer, depending on the individual and the treatment plan designed by Dr. Farrow or Dr. Dewbre.

We have some Farrow & Dewbre Orthodontics patients in braces for as little as six months. But for complex issues, it can take over three years to complete the process.

With metal braces from Farrow & Dewbre Orthodontics, you’ll see signs of improvement in just a short time, and that gives you confidence during the treatment process.
