Damon Metal Braces Are A Popular Choice

Gullotta Orthodontics is one of the Gold Coasts most reputable Metal Braces
orthodontists. Dr Gullotta has over 35 years of metal braces experience.

What are Damon metal braces?

Metal braces (such as Damon) offer a successful result and are an excellent course of treatment among all demographics, including children, teenagers and adults, to straighten crooked teeth. Dr Nino Gullotta believes the Damon system of braces is different to others because it uses ‘passive self-ligating braces’, which means they remove the need for rubber bands around the braces. This spells good news for patients because there is less friction, a shorter treatment time and an improved level of comfort.

What are the benefits of Metal Braces?

Metal Braces are also excellent for the widening of dental arches, which means the need for expanders and extractions is greatly reduced. Having straight teeth and proper jaw alignment can offer many more benefits than just aesthetic appeal, including proper chewing function. Straight teeth are also easier to clean and maintain, decreasing the chance of gum disease and tooth decay. Dr Nino Gullotta designs more than just a new smile, which is his patients’ main priority. He also helps enhance self-esteem and corrects the underlying dental problem, giving you healthier teeth, mouth and gums to improve your quality of life.

Clear Aligner F.A.Q.

What is Invisalign treatment?

Invisalign is an almost invisible way to straighten teeth without wires or brackets. Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth. Each aligner moves teeth incrementally and is worn for about 7 days, then replaced by the next aligner in the series until the final tooth positions are achieved. Spark clear aligners are a great alternative to Invisalign as Dr Gullotta can achieve the same results in a more comfortable and more clear way.

The results achieved with Invisalign and Spark clear aligners are dependent on compliance by the patient and the skill and expertise of the treating doctor. In the majority of cases, an experienced doctor can achieve excellent results with clear aligners that are comparable to those achieved with braces.

You will need to change aligners every 7 days on average. It is common for each new aligner to feel tight and tender for the first 2 to 3 days.

Clear aligners can affect speech initially, in some cases, but most patients adapt within a few weeks.

The length of treatment is dependent on the severity of the problem, the treatment goals, the expertise of the treating doctor and patient compliance. Simple cases could be as little as 3 months. Complex cases could be over 24 month but the average treatment period is 9 to 15 months.

Aligners are made of clear, medical grade plastic that is nearly invisible when worn.

Worldwide, almost 7 million patients have been treated with Invisalign.

As with other types of orthodontic treatment, the cost is heavily dependent on the complexity of a case. We offer a complimentary initial consultation to discuss your wants and needs – then we can tell you exactly what your treatment will cost.
