A member asked:

How long would braces treatment last (using the damon system) for a 16 year old with a canted smile but minimal crowding and barely an overbite?

See an orthodontist: The proper treatment planning by an orthodontist, not the appliance or Any System, results in healthy, beautiful and successful smiles. Do not pay attention to hype and buzz about this "revolutionary, fast" technology, see your orthodontist for the best and healthy options possible. Good luck.

Your Orthodontist: would be able to best answer this question. It really depends on the severity of your bite and alignment problem.

Ask an Orthodontist: The factors you've mentioned are only the tip of the iceberg. Diagnosis and treatment planning must be done by a qualified Professional, not by the computer. Is your son's problem dental, skeletal, or combination? How much growth does he have left? There are so many other details that have to be evaluated. Damon appliances are no better or worse than any other type of braces. See Specialist.
