How long should (damon) braces be worn after final adjustments? i was given 4 weeks, and told not to worry about a loose bracket after only 2 weeks.

Whether: Whether they are Damon Brackets or one of the hundreds of other brackets available on the market, the only one who can answer that question for you is your treating Dentist or H(hopefully)!Orthodontic Specialist.

It is reasonable: Damon braces results are built to last for a long time. However, because all teeth have a tendency to relapse, it may be necessary to wear a Damon Splint after 4-6 weeks, following treatment.

Call your doctor: There is some room for correction even you missed your scheduled appointment. When you have loose bracket, best way is call your doctor's office and ask see if you need to go in earlier.
