Fewer Appointments
According to an independent study by Harradine that compared the Damon System with conventional straight-wire twin brackets, patients treated with the Damon System required 30% fewer appointments as well as significantly less chairtime.1
Another third-party study by Tagawa demonstrated that the Damon System can reduce the number of appointments by up to 50% compared with conventional appliances.2
