  • are they more bulky then traditional?

  • @Kara899 No they are not

  • Great praise and testimony on Damon braces and, more importantly, shows that they work.

  • I got these braces! damon braces and they really work well. my first six weeks with them I had big improvments although I still need more. and yea i'm american so they have them here.

    SO GLAD i got these instead of the traditional ones :)

  • I have Damon braces!! :D

  • Witch one is Damon braces

  • Can you get Damon braces in Adelaide SA??? google or the damon website are not returning any results cheers!

  • @Antzilla78 Graham Moore is the is the only Orthodontist in Adelaide who practices exclusively Damon as such would be the best clinician that I can suggest.

    His details are: Dr Graham Moore, 28 Kensington Rd, Rose Park, SA, 5067 ph 08 8333 0066.

    Regards,

    Derek

  • @DerekMahony Excellent Thankyou very much!

  • My eye teeth are wierd, theyre not pointy like they should be. Theyre kinda square, almost like baby teeth. My aunt had the same problem. I wonder if they do reconstruction, id like that a lot. Im jealous of two of my sisters, theyre the only ones in my family who have straight teeth w/o needing braces. Losers

  • I just wish the horrible ortho I went to would help me get my face fixed, if you see my video, the damage caused by extractions should be outlawed.

  • 0:29 shes looks so nice omg @_@ how old is she ? she looks like 16/17 :O

  • What a sexy accent

  • your telling me that if i had these braces i would already have had my braces off....FFFFUUUUUUUU

  • aww the blondie is so cute

  • My braces aren't rly the original kind and they're not the Damon kind, they're long and they got up and down instead of side to side. I also need rubber bands but instead of the braces having the thing pop up the wire does

  • i had the damon system. they were smaller than regular ones. i had to have braces for 2 and 1/2 yrs and that was with this. i wonder how long it would've been if i didnt have the damon system oh my gosh

  • i love my damon system braces. <3

  • @dieAnna8526 my mom paid 6,000 for them, my brackets broke, but i think that the damon braces take 6 months earlier, than the regular braces, its pretty good, alot of money but its pretty worth it! :)

  • :/ i realised something...i'll keep it to myself now... :|

  • I just have the Traditional upper arch and lower arch, and In two weeks they already have made a difference, they were about $7,000, but I live in the US.

  • @Zinizzle These are not 'traditional' braces - they are passive self-ligating braces from Damon, you can google 'Damon Braces' to find out more.

  • Comment removed

  • i wish i had those

  • i have the damon braces!!!! :D

  • @CrystalLovesFP you lucky mf xD! good for you :D

  • i have these damon braces and ive had them for 4 years now!!!! and my smile was never even that bad

  • I am a kinesiologist specialising in chronic pain.

    NEVER, EVER, EVER have teeth removed because of overcrowding. It can create structural and hormonal problems for life. It changes the shape of your palate, which affects the sphenoid bone, which sits above the palate. This in turn affects the pituitary gland, which can cause major hormonal problems.

  • i just got my braces yesterday!!! feels really weird, its hurt and i dont look so good.

  • I got these in March and I am already well ahead of schedule for corrections. While they do hurt quite a bit when they are moving, they aren't that bad and certainly could be worse.

  • awww. i want damon braces! i just got my real braces and they hurts a lot!

  • My sister has those braes.

    i dont really like them.

    im getting the regular braces.

  • @jthameschoir Your missing the point here. What this video is about is that the easier way for orthodontists to straighten crowded teeth IN AN ALREADY NARROW jaw/palate is pulling some teeth out in an attempt to make space for the other teeth. As a result you will have a narrower smile than the one you should have if they could stretch your jaw/palate to accommodate all your teeth. This is specially true for adults, since they have little to none remaning bone growing potential.

  • omg i just got normal braces fuck :(

  • @youngt29 Yes we do in America. I have the Damon Braces... and I've heard that they are faster. My treatment is supposed to take two years. But the Orthodontist said usually they come off 3-4 months before what he had anticipated.

  • ive got those braces put in a few months ago

  • I've got those braces put in a few months ago

  • they don't hurt as much as normal braces right?

  • AUTOLIGABLES =)

  • do we need the elastic on damon braces ?

  • You british and your teeth!

  • just got my braces off - if enyone needs answers to questions or advice send me a message ill get back to you !

  • do they have these braces in america???i got invisialign but their not closing all my gaps.

  • @youngt29 yes they do have them in America - please google 'Damon Braces' and see their official website to find your nearest Damon Orthodontist

  • @youngt29 they originated from Washington america!

  • hey guys mine smile is like 2:10 min on the video i put damon braces 2 weeks ago and i see no moving can you tell me how much time need to pass till i see the first tooth movement can you tell me please send me a message to profile :)

  • Its free over here in England!

  • that's great! The blond girls smile is SO pretty now :)

  • i want new teeth not . mine are all whit and stuff but i want mine to be cat-like coz its so awesome :P i miss 1 tooth the second one in the left uper jaw i mean the one before the dog tooth and taht realy sux coz its weird ;/

  • I'm getting braces for $10,000 on the 17th

  • good for you ... can you pay for me to get some too ? =]

  • shit.. i had teeth pulled, and i was thinking it would mean a narrower smile :[

    i lost my 4 bicuspids

    i get my braces off today, and i saw a youtube.. this girl had a beautiful, wide smile.

    it makes me sad cos i was thinking "this seems primitive.. can't they just make space?"

    i hear now.. they can.

    but i've lost my teeth already

    :[

  • I did too. My current Dr is widening to make space for implants.

  • @TuffTiff33: Sometimes bicuspid (premolar) extraction spaces can be reopened and implants placed

    Other times the arch can be widened and the back teeth brought forward to close any spaces

  • @DerekMahony Yea, but that's really expensive. I don't know how much Damon costs compared to the older braces, but all of that extra work is sure to put TuffTiff33's bill well over the Damon one. :(

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • @TuffTiff33 I'm so sorry! I'm sure you'll still have a beautiful smile! :)

  • how does your smile look??

  • @TuffTiff33 haha i know i lost my 2 top canenines =/

  • The decision whether extract or not to extract does not depends ont the type of appliance. I work with the several types of appliances for fifteen years. I`ve made my biggest expansions 15- 10 years ago. Now I know, that if I want to create beautiful smile, and the stable results , I have to make the smile proportional to the face. The gums does not necessarily accept the overexpansion, the periodontal problems can develope later. Mike

  • @TuffTiff33

    I know that feel, bro.

  • 8,000 dollers!!! Saaaay worrrrrrdd

  • I just got my braces about 1 month ago in Panama city they just cost me 1500. the damon braces

  • 3:06

    (o my god nutilla)

  • that damon stuff is the shit :D

  • I got them today.

  • i have those braces without the rubber!!! so much better!! and they short the time of having the craces on in like 4 months!!!

  • yahoo.. i got those right now but i only paid around 4000! i still had to remove 4 of my teeth :(.

  • omg, did that hurt?

    I want braces, are they going to remove my teeth?

  • not necessarily it entirely depends on how much space you have in your mouth. it does not hurt that much given that they gave me painkillers when they removed my teeth. now it's been 6 months exactly today the holes of my missing teeth are still there but the rest of my teeth are pretty much straight.

  • the reason why Im getting braces is actually because I have many spaces between my teeth, not overbite. You think they`re going to remove my teeth?

  • i do not think so but you'll have to go see an ortho for that!!!

  • i have to have mine in for 25 months. my braces cost 4000 dollars. this video said the damon braces cost 8000. thats double. i wuld really rather have them in for 6 months longer than to pay an extra 4000 dollars.

  • uhh man i got 6 teeth pulled 2 for braces...yesterday i got gum removed n i got my teeth filed and braces tightened. at the moment my mouth kils!

  • Comment removed

  • can any body tell me if it hurt when they had to remove teeth?

  • yeah. it hurts more when they put the needle in the back of your teeth

  • Comment removed

  • no i havent

  • nup my dentist gave me an anesthetic. i got 4 pulled out and it didnt hurt a bit

  • i had 4 teeth removed and no it doesnt hurt at all =)

  • @bellaa282 thank you very much :D

  • I already extracted two teeth. Another two more to go until I get my braces. No worries, I was nervous about the extraction too. But it isn't painful, really. Tetanus jab hurts more than the jab he gives you even though the needle looks HUUUGE AND SCARY. The only thing that's annoying me now is that there's gaps between my teeth. Makes it slightly difficult to eat/swallow right. :O

    p/s: Does black colour look good?

  • hey check my braces video

  • i got the damon braces about 3 moths ago and my teeth are improvingg

  • Im Getting Braces Next Year and i have a small mouth- But The Orthodontist said i dont have to remove n e teeth + im getting train tracks

    im guessing it depends on the size and shape of your mouth doesnt it?

  • getting braces tomaro very scared

  • at 1:19 they had to take of some of ur teeth that wasent ment to be there?

  • Yes, to make more room. When someones mouth is overcrowded (causing teeth to be crooked) sometimes teeth need to be extracted to make room. I am going to be having all 4 of my Wisdom teeth removed prior to getting my Invisalign braces.

  • i'm getting 4 teeth pulled out too, but first i'm getting my braces..TOMORROW. i'm more nervous about the teeth pulling tbh!

  • I get the old,more painful ones :(

  • my teeth are too big for my mouth so they had to take teeth out even with those braces

  • i had those braces for like 8 months and then I got regular braces after my teeth were straight

  • but after braces , some times you have to wear retainers !!! that is worse than braces !!!

  • you always have to wear a retainer so your teeth dont shift back

  • so you mean for the rest of my life ?!

  • When you have a brace you should wear a retainer afterwards, because your teeth can move back to how they were before. A retainer isn't as bad as it sounds, normally you wear them nightly for a year, then every other night for a year and so on.

  • i get mine 9 months ago i have three more months to go ..... i have already notice improvements after 2 months ... and now its much better..its takes only a year and you will have a nice smile already.....

  • i got my braces on december 2008 and when they put them on i was all like yay i look gud hahaha then at luch time i could't eat it felt like my teeth were gona fall off then at night i was in pain uuuu it hurt like hell ...but like in a week u dont feel them no more u start getting use to them before i got braces i didnt smile as often as i do now and you just get into them cuz u start to get into the colors and they become part of you so i luv my braces and i love to smile hahahaha;)

  • i'm getting my braces next monday :D i can't wait. all of my friends and me think of it as having your teeth pierced.

  • IM SCARED IM GETTING BRACES

  • don't be scared it only hurts for a few days so stock up on pudding yogurt and soft stuff lol

  • well don't they glue the braces on if you get these ones

  • i got mine yesterday and it hurts like hell!

  • i will my braces today. yay!

  • I finally persuaded my mom to get braces after all these years. -_-

    I'm gonna get mine this friday! It's gonna cost 3700.

  • cant wait for my braces ...train trax

  • mine were free the second time I got up

    the first time (which I only had the top four front teeth) were cheap-ish only like $1000 :]

    I get my braces off in 2 months yay!

  • Can u offer any advice about just having my braces on the top only.

  • im getting BRACES tomorrow!!!!

  • ME TOO AT 9:00!

  • Here in america, I got mine for like $5,300.

    My dentist gave me this program. It ROCKS!!

  • mine are a little more than 7200.

    lol. needed wisdom teeth taken out also

  • Got mine free :D 6 months in. But have a while to go yet :( like... a year =/

  • I got something like this, they're called clarity braces. they're like the ceramic version of smart clip, so they're self ligating. Yeah so thay're mostly like this. It's true that theres a lot less time involved in the procedure (18 months instead of 3-4 years) but I wouldn't say that it's at all painless.

  • mine are FREEEEEE

    xD

    thank god for nhs

  • hahah initt :P

    if mine werent free, it would cost me £4000 :(

  • Mine were $5400

    Its cool when they put them in, you hear the brackets clicking in your mouth. I got mine done yesterday, and there a little tender. But My cousin has had the older ones on for a year, and he says he's teeth are always tendrish. Whereas my orthodontist said it will stop being tender in just a few days. Definitely, recommend damon. Theres no tightening! just a change of wire ;) which doesnt hurt at all :P

  • mine were $5800

    here in aus they arent free  lol

  • here in the UK braces r free for under 18s

  • lucky!!! their so expensive:(

  • i know i wish they were cheaper =/

  • mine were $5400, and worth every penny. first two orthodontists said 8 teeth need to come out! 4 wisdom and 4 regular ones to make room, but with Damon - no extractions! they come off around Christmas this year!

  • i think mine are the cheapest ones on the internet

    theyre only 3700 for top, bottom, spacers, and an expander!

  • are they called something else also? or are they just known as damon??? someone let me know

  • damon braces are just known as damon yes - u can get normal ones that look simlar to damon but there not as fast acting

  • wow dose damon braces r 8000 dollars.I need to get braces but that is way to much money .

  • ughh i want braces, i hate my teeth.

    my mother wont let me get them cause

    theyre too expensive ...

    : /

  • My parent's never would get them for me either when I was a teenager. It kind of hit me when I was 26 that I had the money and I've always wanted them so I just finally went ahead and did it. Maybe someday you'll still be able to get them if you really want them that bad.

  • I never really wanted them when I was a teenager. I thought they looked horrible and i didnt really care about my teeth, now im 21 and im saving for braces.. lol Should of gotten them when I was younger but oh well..

  • i know what you mean my mom said that to. But i know if you go to foreign countries like Panama or Colombia you would only have to pay like 500 dollers panama usues American money.

  • Comment removed

  • i know what you mean but if you go to a foreign country like Panama , Mexico , Colombia its cost way less about 500 american dollers but worth it. I'm hoping to go this month i called up my dad to take me. i wish you luck =) don't give up

  • hi bella, how did your trip to south america go? did you get any braces? can you give me a review? much appreciated... cheers

  • mine weere 4000

  • Are those the same as clarity braces? If anyone knows please reply. :)

  • 40 mins till i get my brace wooooooo

  • im gettin these monday - he said i will need thm for only 7 month - im 23 and cudnt giv a fuck wot peaple think - who will be smillin in the end meeeee - he said i will hav perfect teeth

    if ur scared to get thm dont be - wots 1 year to the rest of ur life not been happy smilling ???????????????

  • i think i had those damon things, mine had gates and rubber crap, but the rubber was at the end, the braces were painful when they were first put on and tightened, I had mine on for about 2 years and my teeth weren't terrible at all, i think i had damon, i am not sure

  • does it hurt when u get braces coz i want them.

  • no it doesnt hurt

  • that's dump its only if u have bad condition teethes do u have?

  • not at all, but ull be pissed cuz u cant it hard food for like a week

  • it doesn't hurt right away like 2 hours later it hurst like hell but u could take a painkiller 1-2 dayz later u dont feel anything its not that bad but when they put them on the glue taste horrible and sour lolz

  • One last thing. My prelimenary set were old style "O-ring" braces. My new set were the newer ones.

    THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE IN PAIN. LET ME TELL YOU. Not many people have had the "pleasure" of having both sets. IT. CHANGES. NOTHING. They hurt exactly the same.

    And don't call braces anything but braces. "mid-face improvement" is a ridiculous term.

  • Pfft. I had braces when I was in primary school. Six months and my teeth were straight as well. It's the retainer that really kills it. Now i've got high quality braces (yes, again, the first set were never designed to fix everything, and my teeth went back to the way they were before), coming off next month and the wearing of the retainer will be minimal. Best of all, no teeth pulling needed!

  • i'm getting mine off in 10 days!! eee so excited!

  • i have a year left

  • omg me too thats so wierd!!

  • but in a welfare state like britain.... they are free. good old capitalism is beaten by welfare state and socialism, how ironic!!!

  • sorry guys but you will find a bloody body hanging in your closet it will haunt you unless you send this to 6 videos in 30 min

  • get mine june 12th im nervous and excited at the same time

  • me too! lolz

  • everybody is talking about how much pain it is but i think its okay sometimes its a bit disagreeable but its not like it hurts

  • its just those couple of days after you get them changed that you have an ache, and tenderness. but its not excruciating.

  • :C

    Damn, I wish I had this. I had to get 4 teeth yanked.

  • all teeth movement are done with movement of the bone smartass.

  • I'm freakin' scared to get mine off. I don't have Damon brackets, but ceramic ones. I just want my teeth to be perfect and I hope the look okay when it's all done... I get them off in the fall. Scared!

  • you will have perfect teeth with braces, thats for sure.

  • I got these braces and the picture at 1:13 is more or less what my teeth look like, i hate them, ive had the brace on like... 2 months and there's a BIG improvement. The pain is nothing. You look at your teeth a forget about the pain. Worth it :)

    Oh im from the UK so i got em free :D

  • lolz! Lucky you, here in America you need to pay thousands of dollars for braces if you don't have insurance.
