Damon Q: Self-Ligating Braces
How Do Dental Braces Work?
Dental braces are used in orthodontic treatment to correct or straighten misaligned teeth, giving you a healthy and confident smile. Straight teeth not only make your face look more symmetrical but are also easier to keep clean, which in turn lowers your risk for cavities and gum disease. They also improve chewing and speaking, thereby reducing the stresses inflicted on muscles, ligaments, and other supporting tissues around the jaws.

There are various types of braces in the market such as:
- Metal Braces
- Ceramic Braces
- Damon Q / Damon Clear Braces
- Invisalign
In this section, we discuss Damon Q: Self-Ligating Braces in detail.
Damon self-ligating braces are made up of a low friction, low force bracket system that is clinically proven to provide these significant advantages:
• Good overall comfort
• Gentle on your teeth
• Better access for brushing
Damon self-ligating brackets in Singapore offer a revolutionary approach to orthodontic treatment. With smooth contours, good ergonomics and sliding wires with minimal friction, they align your teeth faster and are also engineered to minimise food traps in the absence of debris-attracting elastics (rubber bands).
These features make them clean, comfortable and very popular in Singapore. Talk to us about the benefits of this edge-leading technology today!

Frequently Asked Questions
How do Damon Q braces differ from traditional braces?
Damon self-ligating braces are different from traditional braces because they use a special type of bracket that allows teeth to move more freely and comfortably. Unlike regular braces, Damon Q braces do not require metal ties or elastic bands to hold the wire in place, resulting in less friction and thus fewer visits to the dentist for adjustments.
Do self-ligating braces need to get tightened?
Damon self-ligating braces require tightening. However, unlike traditional braces that use elastic bands or metal ties, self-ligating Damon braces have special brackets that hold the wire in place without the need for manual ties. This allows the teeth to move more freely and comfortably. With self-ligating braces, you typically have fewer visits to the orthodontist for adjustments, making the treatment process more convenient.
Are Damon Q braces suitable for all orthodontic cases?
Damon Q self-ligating braces are suitable for many orthodontic cases but may not be suitable for all. They effectively treat common orthodontic issues such as crooked teeth, overcrowding, and bite alignment problems. However, complex cases or severe malocclusions may require alternative or additional treatment options. It is best to consult your dentist to determine if Damon Q braces are the right choice for your specific orthodontic needs.
Do Damon Q self-ligating braces require any special care or maintenance?
Self-ligating Damon braces do not require any special care or maintenance beyond regular oral hygiene practices. Brushing your teeth thoroughly and flossing regularly is important to keep your braces and teeth clean. Additionally, avoiding hard or sticky foods that could damage the braces is recommended. Your dentist may provide specific instructions tailored to your case, but Damon Q braces are generally designed to be low-maintenance during your dental treatment.
Are self-ligating braces more expensive than traditional braces?
The cost of self-ligating Damon braces in Singapore, like Damon Q braces, can vary depending on various factors, such as the location, dentist’s fees, and the specific treatment plan. Generally, self-ligating braces may have a slightly higher upfront cost compared to traditional braces. However, it is important to consider that self-ligating braces may require fewer dentist visits and adjustments, potentially resulting in lower overall treatment costs. At The Braces Practice, we offer transparent pricing. Our fees for Damon Q braces start from $4,700, with student rates available. Payments can also be made by installments.
