Traditional Metal Braces vs. Damon System Braces vs. Clear Aligners
Today you now have a choice in planning your orthodontic treatment! Taking a proactive part in designing your treatment can help you better understand how appliances work and why you should follow their strict instructions. Since numerous types of appliances are now available, choosing among them might be hard for those who have little knowledge regarding their advantages and disadvantages. In order to prevent regrets during or after your treatment, it is best to gain broad awareness about orthodontic treatments. Below is a good comparison of traditional metal braces and clear braces you can use as your guide. 
Examining each of them and comparing them with each other can help you calculate which option is best for you. By “best” we mean lesser pain, lesser discomfort, more convenience, lesser cost, and shorter treatment duration. Since having all these advantages at once is hard to achieve given you have limited resources or other restrictions, you can pick which criteria you prefer the most such as price, duration, or convenience and base your decision on it.
Traditional Metal Braces
Traditional metal braces are known for their strength and durability that can withstand the test of time for patients of all ages. These braces require an elastic rubber band, also called ligature, in order to connect or hold the archwire into the bracket. On the other hand, some orthodontists utilize metal tie wires instead of these elastic bands. These tie wires are twisted around the bracket thus enabling them to apply pressure on your teeth. This pressure will then slowly move your teeth to their desired positions over time.
Advantages
These kind of braces are less expensive compared to the other types of braces thus it is the most commonly used worldwide to keep orthodontists overhead down. You are allowed you to play with multi-colored ligatures that serve as decorations on your teeth when you smile. Aside from that, an option for a darker ligature is also available for those who smoke or drink coffee in order to hide staining.
Disadvantages
Traditional metal braces are easier to notice compared to the Damon System Bracket or Damon Clear Braces. Because of this, most teens and adults prefer the smaller Damon Braces or even clear aligners. Furthermore, since this type of braces is cemented on your teeth, proper brushing and cleaning is a must in order to prevent tooth decays. Lastly, metal braces tend to be uncomfortable at first 3 weeks as your tongue, cheek, and lips get used to it. The older bracket systems also require more force to get the teeth to move which translates to discomfort for the patient. Because of this, Dr. Wilson has chosen to not use the older braces systems in his office due to less patient satisfaction upon completion of treatment and a less superior result that the Damon System
Damon System Braces
The Damon Bracket system is the leading orthodontic bracket on the market today. It is the only “passive, self-ligating bracket” and has a special patent that no other braces system can reproduce. It’s know for getting a more superior result in a shorter time with less discomfort. It is the “Cadillac” of all braces systems out there today. It’s also know for giving the patient a wider, more esthetic smile that can not be achieved with other braces systems.
Advantages
The advantages over traditional braces or the old bracket systems are many. Just to list a few: Smaller bracket, more hygienic, less discomfort, faster treatment times, fewer appointments, a broader/fuller smile, along with many more advantages.
Disadvantages
It is the most expensive braces system out there, which is why most orthodontists don’t use it because it increases their overhead. However, Dr. Wilson has elected NOT to charge a premium or increase his fees because of this since he is able to finish his patients faster and in fewer appointments so this decreases the time needed for each patient as far as overall chair time, which tends to wash out his increased overhead on the bracket. Thus, this creates a built-in savings for the patient.
Clear Aligners
Having clear braces is a good option for those who don’t have the confidence to wear metal braces. Clear braces are made up of plastic and the most common brand is Invisalign. Unlike metal braces, clear braces or aligners need to be replaced once every two weeks.
Advantages
The main advantage of using clear braces is cosmetic. Patients are conscious regarding how they look when friends and families notice their weird appliances such as palatal expander, metal braces, or metal retainers. Aside from that, since clear aligners are removable, it will be easier for you to clean the appliances as well as your teeth. You can even remove them when playing instruments, swimming, or engaging in sports.
Disadvantages
Because of its convenience and comfort, clear braces are slightly more expensive compared to other types of braces. They are also more fragile so handling them carefully is a must in order not to break them. Furthermore, there’s a higher risk of losing them since you can easily remove them and misplace your braces case or holder. However, Invisalign Teen has 6 replacement aligners for free built in.

Acceledent, a new method to shorten your orthodontic treatment time
What is Acceledent ?
Acceledent is a brand-new treatment method that works to dramatically decrease treatment times for orthodontic patients. Acceledent is a revolutionary new system that works in conjunction with orthodontic appliances to cut the length of treatment times in half. If you lead a busy lifestyle and would like to severely accelerate the length of your treatment, Acceledent may be for you.
Instead of having to wear braces for up to two years, with the help of Acceledent you may be able to reduce the length of your treatment to even less than one year with braces on. We understand that orthodontic appliances can be a minor inconvenience for many of our patients this is why we are please to offer up this clinically proven method for moving teeth up to 50% faster.
Acceledent works by applying specially calibrated micro-pulses through a special mouthpiece that is designed to gradually accelerate the movement of your teeth with orthodontic appliances. This patented soft pulse technology will very gently vibrate through your teeth and gums to gently move teeth into position and accelerate teeth movement guided by your existing orthodontic appliance. These micro-pulses are extremely safe and work to accelerate tooth movement and bone remodeling.
Acceledent is 100% approved by the FDA and has been used by thousands of patients across the world since 2009. Although not every Orthodontist can offer Acceledent we are pleased to confirm this treatment is available at our office.
Acceledent works by inserting a special mouthpiece with the pulse activator for 20 minutes a day. If patients can commit to using Acceledent for at least 20 minutes a day with the special mouthpiece, they can see a real impact when it comes to their orthodontic treatment. Mouthpieces need to be fitted specifically around your orthodontic appliances and this may require a special mould. Care and cleaning for mouthpieces is also included in the Acceledent package so that you can effectively sanitize the mouthpiece after you complete treatment.
With new tools such as Acceledent orthodontists are making treatment options for fixing and straightening teeth much quicker than ever before. Braces used to be a large inconvenience, as Acceledent continues to develop there is no telling where the future of orthodontic technology can go.

Straight Teeth without Braces

Clear Braces what are they exactly?
Being in a midst of decision making whether or not to correct your teeth misalignment problems brings you to consider several factors when doing so.
Aside from the cost of treating these problems, you may find yourself being more concerned about its cosmetic effects while under treatment. Wearing braces may inflict a great impact on your confidence every time you talk to the public, smile on cameras, and even greet your friends daily.
Fortunately, this kind of problem has been answered by Align Technology. A product called Invisalign allows you to undergo an orthodontic treatment for several months or years without having everyone notice you’re under treatment.
Invisalign works by applying the right pressure on your teeth in order to move them over the course of the treatment just like braces. The only difference is that they are CLEAR. In fact, so clear that even the person you are talking to each day won’t even notice you are wearing them. Invisalign indeed is a breakthrough when it comes to orthodontics as patients are more confident to wear them than braces. Why sacrifice your current smile in the process of acquiring a perfect smile in the future if you can have it all without being intimidated?
Can Teens use Invisalign?
Invisalign is now also available for teens especially as teens are more conscious with how they look in front of their friends. Improving the self-confidence during the teenage years is very important so teens can be able to reach their full potential without any hindrance. This confidence will help them perform better each day, improve their grades each semester, and compete well with others in athletics and other extra-curricular activities.
Every individual aims to have the perfect straight teeth without braces. The good news is that everyone will now be able to fulfil this dream through Align Technology’s Invisalign for teens and adults easily and comfortably.

Beach Braces Smile Quote #23 “The purpose of our lives is to be happy!”
Many people get hung up on wealth, possessions, stress, and difficulties in life but it is important to remember that the true purpose of our lives is to be happy and to share our happiness with others. So much of our society has become extremely fast-paced and material, and as more and more people are struggling to find their own version of happiness by consuming and buying more and more each day the root of happiness comes directly from within. You can share this happiness with other people through something as simple as a smile.
A smile is not something that can be bought or sold but it certainly can be traded. If you are able to pass by someone on the street and give them a confident smile you can share your happiness directly with others and truly brighten their day. Remember that there is always something that you can be happy about and that it’s very important to take time out of a busy day or a stressful event to spend time making yourself smile. It is understandable that we can’t be happy at all times but to try and embrace happiness and sheer happiness with others daily is a noble pursuit it can only help to enrich our lives.
As many others may struggle to obtain more material wealth, they are continuing to ignore our base human instinct to simply share happiness with each other and be happy each and every day. Remember to try and stay positive and to share the things that you are happy about. Think of happy memories and try to smile each and every day so that you can share your happiness with others.

“Every tooth in a man’s head is more valuable than a diamond”
Beach Braces Smile Quote #19 “Every tooth in a man’s head is more valuable than a diamond”
Many people overlook the care of their teeth as well as truly valuing their smile. A smile is an extremely expressive tool that we all use each and every day, caring for it is imperative to maintaining our confidence, our image and how we depict our happiness to the world. Just as this quote would suggest it’s very important for people to care for their teeth just as they would the most valuable diamond in a jewellery collection.
A smile is what makes us approachable and what we use to communicate happiness to other people. If people are unable to value their teeth they may not be confident in their smile and may also have difficulty smiling without any effort. It’s important that we be able to smile with other people and share a smile as this can brighten somebody’s day. Having the confidence to be able to perform a big open tooth ear to ear grin is what really helps us to connect as human beings. A guarded smile is nowhere near the same as a genuine confident one. Are you happy with your smile?
You never know the type of people that you might meet or who you might impress by showing off your perfect smile. This is why keeping your teeth healthy and regularly caring for each and every tooth in your head, as the quote would suggest is so very important to maintaining your appearance and valuing your happiness. Smiles and teeth truly can be more valuable than any diamond in existence.

”You’ll find that life is still worthwhile, if you just SMILE”
Beach Braces Smile Quote #18 ”You’ll find that life is still worthwhile, if you just SMILE”
To go through life without smiling would have to feel like something is missing. You might check to make sure you are wearing your shoes, or put on your tie, or grabbed your keys and phone. After making sure that you have everything that you need for your day, something still seems to be missing. In order to be fully dressed, you need to put a smile on each morning.
There are so many things in life to be appreciative of. What better way to show your happiness and excitement than through a smile? Smiles are the universal way of showing that you are happy or have a positive outlook on something. When we start to smile, others cannot help but smile themselves. Why not challenge yourself for the next couple of days to wake up and before you leave the house, put a smile on your face? You might notice that people will begin to ask you “Why you are smiling?”, or “What are you so happy for?”
What greater response than telling them that today is just a good day and you are happy to be smiling. I guarantee if you start this trend, people will begin to be more positive and upbeat when they are around you because they know that you are the person they can come to share a smile with. No one likes a grouch, so why not put a smile on and share it with everyone?

Examining each of them and comparing them with each other can help you calculate which option is best for you. By “best” we mean lesser pain, lesser discomfort, more convenience, lesser cost, and shorter treatment duration. Since having all these advantages at once is hard to achieve given you have limited resources or other restrictions, you can pick which criteria you prefer the most such as price, duration, or convenience and base your decision on it.
Traditional Metal Braces
Traditional metal braces are known for their strength and durability that can withstand the test of time for patients of all ages. These braces require an elastic rubber band, also called ligature, in order to connect or hold the archwire into the bracket. On the other hand, some orthodontists utilize metal tie wires instead of these elastic bands. These tie wires are twisted around the bracket thus enabling them to apply pressure on your teeth. This pressure will then slowly move your teeth to their desired positions over time.
Advantages
These kind of braces are less expensive compared to the other types of braces thus it is the most commonly used worldwide to keep orthodontists overhead down. You are allowed you to play with multi-colored ligatures that serve as decorations on your teeth when you smile. Aside from that, an option for a darker ligature is also available for those who smoke or drink coffee in order to hide staining.
Disadvantages
Traditional metal braces are easier to notice compared to the Damon System Bracket or Damon Clear Braces. Because of this, most teens and adults prefer the smaller Damon Braces or even clear aligners. Furthermore, since this type of braces is cemented on your teeth, proper brushing and cleaning is a must in order to prevent tooth decays. Lastly, metal braces tend to be uncomfortable at first 3 weeks as your tongue, cheek, and lips get used to it.

Damon System Braces
The Damon Bracket system is the leading orthodontic bracket on the market today. It is the only “passive, self-ligating bracket” and has a special patent that no other braces system can reproduce. It’s know for getting a more superior result in a shorter time with less discomfort. It is the “Cadillac” of all braces systems out there today. It’s also know for giving the patient a wider, more esthetic smile that can not be achieved with other braces systems.

It is the most expensive braces system out there, which is why most orthodontists don’t use it because it increases their overhead. However, Dr. Wilson has elected NOT to charge a premium or increase his fees because of this since he is able to finish his patients faster and in fewer appointments so this decreases the time needed for each patient as far as overall chair time, which tends to wash out his increased overhead on the bracket. Thus, this creates a built-in savings for the patient.
Clear Aligners
Having clear braces is a good option for those who don’t have the confidence to wear metal braces. Clear braces are made up of plastic and the most common brand is Invisalign. Unlike metal braces, clear braces or aligners need to be replaced once every two weeks.
Advantages
The main advantage of using clear braces is cosmetic. Patients are conscious regarding how they look when friends and families notice their weird appliances such as palatal expander, metal braces, or metal retainers. Aside from that, since clear aligners are removable, it will be easier for you to clean the appliances as well as your teeth. You can even remove them when playing instruments, swimming, or engaging in sports.

Because of its convenience and comfort, clear braces are slightly more expensive compared to other types of braces. They are also more fragile so handling them carefully is a must in order not to break them. Furthermore, there’s a higher risk of losing them since you can easily remove them and misplace your braces case or holder. However, Invisalign Teen has 6 replacement aligners for free built in.

Beach Braces Smile Quote #17 “There is no weapon in the feminine armory to which men are so vulnerable as they are to a smile.
A smile is one of the best tools that we can have. A smile never hurt anyone. If a smile can only help yourself and others, then why do you not smile as often as you should? Are you embarrassed by the way your smile looks? If this is the case Beach Braces would like to assist you in correcting your teeth so that you can have a smile that you are proud of. One method of changing the way your smile looks is by getting braces. Many adults think that they have waited too long and their smile is a lost cause.
This is not true at all! Braces are not just limited to children alone. Beach Braces offers a variety of options for children and adults alike. If smiling can boost your ego, then how do you think you would feel if your smile had been corrected and you had the smile you have always wanted? With advances in the technical side of orthodontics, there are many things that have been updated and changed in order to lower pain and discomfort levels as well as the amount of times that you will have to visit for check ups.
Another great thing about braces today is that there are many options to how you would like to straighten your teeth. You can have metal braces, translucent braces, or even aligners such as Invisalign to help improve your smile. When you come in for your first visit the orthodontist will go over what your options are and what they think will be the best option to better meet your needs. You will know what will happen every step of the way and will be sure to get the attention you deserve. Schedule your complementary consultation today!
