Introducing the Damon System: A Whole New World of Orthodontics

For more years than I care to remember, I spent untold amounts of time in the world of orthodontia—shuttling both of my teens to appointments every six weeks, plying them with pain relievers after painful tightening and adjustment procedures, constantly reminding them to floss and brush meticulously throughout the lengthy process, and chasing after them to ensure they inserted their retainers.

Orthodontics seemed almost a rite of passage for both moms and teens—something you couldn’t change or exercise any control over—but rather an experience you simply had to slog through.

But recently I learned of an entirely new world of orthodontics—the Damon System. This innovative approach to orthodontia combines “tieless” brackets with high-tech arch wires and minimally invasive treatment protocols that develop each patient’s best smile. Like most moms, I didn’t know that other orthodontic options existed aside from Invisalign (which my daughter wore) and went with whatever approach the doctor recommended.

That’s why I’m so thrilled to join the Damon Divas Club—a group of mom bloggers who will share personal experiences and insight about the Damon System. As a mom who’s gone through the traditional experience, I feel passionate about letting moms know that orthodontics is yet another area where we can educate one another through first-person perspective, learn that we do have choices, and go into the orthodontic consultations and meetings armed with information, questions, and insights.

So in the coming months, I’ll share some compelling information about the Damon System–fewer appointments, shorter treatment (up to six months faster than traditional orthodontic treatment), and less discomfort (why didn’t I know about all this??)—as well as how you can become an informed consumer when it comes to orthodontics and make the best decision for you and your child. We’ll also talk about the growing trend of adults in braces. Did you know that according to recent studies, more than 23 million U.S. adults want to improve their smiles?

And—best of all, we’ve teamed up with the Damon System to offer a FREE smile makeover for one of our Mom Central readers! Stay tuned for more details on how you can enter for a chance to win this $8,000 value. As a mom, what’s your experience with orthodontic treatment? We’d love to know!
