Damon Braces release New Damon Clear Braces
Damon Braces have just taken Invisible Braces to new standards of concealment with the new Damon® Clear Brace.
Damon Clear Braces now bring their legendary fast, accurate and Hygienic Damon ® system into a totally new tooth-coloured ceramic bracket, showing no metal. Damon braces are faster more accurate and more hygienic than standard braces. Dr Geoffrey Wexler uses Damon braces on the majority of his cases.
Damon is a proprietary system of high precision, strong, fast braces for straightening teeth. Damon is Dr Geoffrey Wexler’s favourite system. Damon braces have raised the standard of quality to a higher level as No finer system exists for the faster efficient straightening of Adult or childrens teeth, in our opinion.
An American import, the "Damon braces" have redefined the way braces are fitted. Damon braces straighten teeth faster and are reputed to take six months off the overall treatment time, with fewer painful visits to the dentist in-between. Traditionally, braces have a rubber o-shaped ring, which attaches the wire to the brace. As time goes on and the teeth move, painful tightening is required. Damon braces, however, have a gate which allows the wire to move and create less friction. Please contact Dr Geoffrey Wexler for extended information related to the Damon Braces system.
SureSmile ™ Braces
SureSmile Braces are set to revolutionize orthodontic teeth straightening with a very hi-tech system known as SureSmile.
The SureSmile system uses 3-D computer imaging to create a model of your smile which allows your orthodontist to view your teeth from any angle and see how they fit together in your mouth.
Then the SureSmile treatment planning software allows your orthodontist to simulate the movements of each tooth to determine the final positions required to give you that beautiful smile you deserve.
Once your orthodontist has decided on your SureSmile treatment plan, the SureSmile treatment planning software directs a robot to bend the shape-memory wire into the precise shape to deliver gentle more natural forces to move your teeth painlessly into the final positions that will make up your perfect smile.
SureSmile reduces orthodontic treatment time by 40%. SureSmile significantly improves speed and quality of orthodontic outcome by using state of the art robotic and cad cam systems. SureSmile brings with it precision and efficiency moving teeth straightening dentistry into the twenty-first century.
SureSmile has already proven itself on over 25,000 cases in the USA and Dr Geoffrey Wexler will be one of 25 "first users" of SureSmile in Australia in 2010.
