Metal Braces | Riverhead & East Hampton
Modern Meets Tradition
Metal braces are a tried-and-true treatment option capable of correcting even the most complex smile issues — and at Facing the Future Orthodontics, Dr. Vic and Dr. Hailey use self-ligating metal braces for a modern update to this classic.
Damon Braces at Facing the Future Orthodontics
Step away from old-school metal braces and their bulky elastic ties with the innovative Damon System.
Our Damon self-ligating braces come equipped with precision and comfort like never seen before and even deliver faster results!
Self-ligating brackets don’t use elastics to hold the archwire in place. Instead, these innovative brackets have built-in clips or doors to create easy movement and even faster treatment times.
Moving Your Smile
Since Damon braces use self-ligating brackets, all your smile needs is the brackets and the archwire to get results.
The bracket holds the wire to your teeth, and the archwire provides the gentle, continuous force needed to gradually and gently move your smile into place.
Knowing Your Components
Damon not only brought metal brackets into the 21st century — they also reinvented the archwire with a biologically sensible, light-force technology to make your adjustments more precise and your alignment that much more efficient.
Depending on your smile needs, you may require some additional reinforcements:
- Orthodontic bands: Dr. Vic or Dr. Hailey will attach these to your teeth to help pull your jaw and teeth forward.
- Spacers: We may also use these small, elastic “donuts” to create room for your brackets, bands, or teeth movement.

Less Time in Our Office
