How much do Damon Braces cost and are they good for crowded and crooked teeth?
I can't tell you the cost, since treatment fees are so variable from one orthodontist to another. Usually, fees are determined by the type of correction needed and length of treatment. I don't think the type of braces make that much of a difference in the fee. Clear braces are sometimes an additional cost.





Damon braces, like any bracket, work well. The idea behind the Damon system is that the wire sits inside of a chamber instead of having an elastic tied around the bracket. This reduces the amount of friction on the wire and is said to speed up the alignment process. Personally, I don't think the type of bracket makes as much a difference as the diagnosis and proper treatment planning. Much of the advantages and superiority of certain braces over others comes from marketing. That said, used properly they are a good bracket.





Here is a web site that shows a close-up of the bracket:
