Finding the
right braces for you.
When you get your braces, they will become a big
part of your life. And when they come off, they
will impact you with a nice straight smile and a
definite appearance change. It is a recommended
you meet with Dr. Feather to discuss the advantages
of each type of braces in function, price, maintenance
and visibility. This way you will be able to find
the best fit for you. |

| DAMON BRACES |
 |
The
Damon Difference |
|
The
Damon System is not just a new product,
it's a whole new way of treating patients.
Conventional treatment often requires
removal of healthy teeth and/or the use
of palatal expanders to make space. This
approach is often uncomfortable, takes
longer, and can leave a narrower arch
and a flat profile. Damon smiles are full,
natural 10-tooth smiles achieved with
light biologically-sensible forces, and
are specifically designed to improve the
overall facial result of each patient.
Braces
are the beginning, but the system makes
the smile.
Certified Damon System doctors combine
three key components, which when used
together, deliver faster treatment, fewer
appointments, greater comfort, and consistent
high-quality results:
1. Damon passive self-ligating braces
that eliminate the need for elastic or
metal "ties". With Damon tie-less
braces you can experience treatment without
tightening.
2. Light high-technology shape-memory
wires that move teeth faster
and require fewer adjustments.
3. A new clinically proven treatment
approach that aligns your teeth
and enhances your facial aesthetics -
usually without extractions or rapid palatal
expanders.

Conventional
braces on the left are tied in with elastics,
which cause friction and pressure, making
treatment slower and less comfortable. Damon
braces use a slide mechanism to hold the wire,
which allows teeth to move more freely, quickly
and comfortably. |

Damon
braces are designed to be discreet, comfortable
and easy to keep clean. Without the elastic
ties which attract and collect plaque, Damon
braces make dental hygiene easy during treatment. |

| Invisalign Braces: |
|
|
How Does Invisalign ®
Work?
- You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks,
removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and
floss.
- As you replace each aligner with the next in
the series, your teeth will move - little by
little, week by week - until they have straightened
to the final position your Doctor has prescribed.
- You'll visit Dr. Feather about once every 6 weeks
to ensure that your Invisalign orthodontic treatment
is progressing as planned.
- Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and
the average number of aligners worn during treatment
is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from
case to case.

| INSPIRE ICE #1 CLEAR BACKET |
|
|
Crystal
clear
Unlike ceramic brackets that are opaque
and colored to mimic a particular tooth
shade, Inspire ICE™ brackets are crystal
clear and virtually disappear regardless
of tooth shade. The only completely
transparent bracket on the market, Inspire
ICE is the only true aesthetic solution
for ALL patients. |
|
|
Smooth
and comfortable
Inspire ICE is the lowest profile ceramic
bracket on the market and is manufactured
with an innovative boron tumbling process
that provides a smooth surface and rounded
facial contours to greatly enhance patient
comfort. |
Maximum
tie-wing strength
Advances in heat-treatment technology allow
us to produce brackets that are twice as resistant
to breakage than other ceramic appliances.
Torque strength is nearly three times that
of other ceramic brackets such as Clarity™†.
Excellent sliding mechanics – without
a metal slot Inspire ICE has an ultra-smooth,
heat-polished surface that dramatically reduces
friction. Laboratory tests prove the frictional
resistance of Inspire ICE to be better than
ceramic brackets with a metal slot insert.
Note: Testing performed with .017 x .025 Copper
Ni-Ti® archwire in .018 slot brackets.
Easy to debond Inspire Ice utilizes
Ormco’s patented ball-base technology, which
reduces the force required to debond. A simplified
debonding procedure ensures that brackets
come off easily and consistently – simply
engage the Inspire ICE debonding instrument
under the tie-wing area and pivot the instrument
toward the occlusal/incisal edge.
Fast,accurate placement Ormco’s rhomboid
shape, tooth-specific pad contours and unique
Face Paint™ system for bracket-to-tooth contrast
provide fast, accurate bracket placement.
New lower bicuspid brackets offer patients
a complete 20-unit aesthetic option.

| Metal Braces: |
 |
Metal braces (stainless steel)
are the most popular type of braces used
throughout the country. If you choose metal
braces for your treatment plan, Hendrix
Orthodontics utilizes the most comfortable,
efficient, and technologically advanced
metal braces available.
Many patients enjoy having
different colors placed on their braces
as a means of personal expression and fun.
Because it's so simple to change the colors,
feel free to swap them at every visit.

| Clear Ceramic Braces: |
|
|
Have
you ever thought about having orthodontic
treatment, but decided the 'Metal Mouth'
was not for you?
Thanks to a technological and material breakthrough,
it is possible to have braces that may go
almost entirely unnoticed. Ceramic braces
are translucent, so the only thing that
shows is the natural color of your teeth.
These innovative braces could change the
way you feel about having orthodontic treatment—which
can certainly help change the quality of
your life, and make you feel better about
yourself and your smile. With ceramic braces,
the focus is on you, not your braces.
