Visible result in 2-3 months 
Installation time — up to 2 weeks Damon Clear Ceramic Braces
These are discreet, hypoallergenic braces for correcting your bite or aligning your teeth. The enamel-effect bracket system has no conventional ligatures (prone to staining), making it one of the most discreet in the Damon range.
Appearance of Damon Clear braces
Damon Clear enamel effect braces are similar in color and translucency to real teeth. Up close, you'll only notice them when looking at someone else, and that's because of the orthodontic arches, but from afar, no one will even be able to guess that you have braces.The base of Damon Clear ceramic braces – is polycrystalline aluminum, which has similar aesthetic characteristics to tooth enamel – color and translucency. At the same time, the material is hard enough to correct your bite and create an even tooth line for 2 years. The bracket cushion is treated with a laser, creating micro-roughnesses that allow for maximum adhesion of the bracket to the tooth surface without traumatizing the enamel.

Placement process
Damon braces are placed on the outside of the tooth row. First, the locks are installed on the outermost teeth, then all parts for the upper and lower jaw are installed at once through indirect fixation (a special option of our clinic, extremely comfortable for patients), the bars are fixed by closing in the grooves of the brackets with a snap-on transparent lock. No more "rubber bands" and "ties" – only modern technological European approach.
At Konfidencia Clinic, we have long since moved away from using conservative methods of bracket retention. In recent years, both we and all advanced orthodontic practices in the world have been working on the technology of indirect fixation of bracket systems. The peculiarity of this method – positioning brackets in advance on the model of the patient's teeth, not in the oral cavity. The orthodontist is able to prepare the points for bracket placement in advance and in more detail and double-check them. They are then transferred to a special mouth guard, which is used to place the braces on the entire jaw at the appointment in one motion. For the patient, this is the ideal format for braces installation, both in terms of speed of installation, as well as in terms of jewelry precision of calculation and elimination of errors.
To remove any Damon System braces, SPINTEK &ndash technology is available; the braces are gently unhooked with a special tool without chipping the enamel.
How are the arcs replaced?
Orthodontic arches are changed several times during the entire period of orthodontic treatment - gradually changing the arches from soft to stiffer. The process itself is quite simple – the doctor simply opens the lids of the braces, pulls the old arch out of the slots, replaces it with a new one and closes the lids.

How much do ceramic braces cost?
When choosing a clinic and an orthodontist, patients are not always able to immediately understand what the total amount of orthodontic treatment consists of. Often clinics will only mention the cost of installation or will not tell you the exact number of visits (activations), or offer veiled monthly payments. We also recommend you to be careful with promotions, where the cost sounds very low, you may well be the first patient at your doctor, and competent treatment begins first of all with an experienced orthodontist.
