Qatar CDC offers Damon 3 cure

Doha, January 14, 2009

The Qatar-based Consultant Dental Centre (CDC) has become the first dental centre in the Middle East to use the Damon 3 system of orthodontics, a passive, self-ligating method of correcting malocciusions.

Damon 3 is one of the most advanced technologies being used across the world for dental treatment.

It uses brackets that do not require elastic 0-rings to hold the wires in place, said a CDC statement. This system is being considered as advanced and comprehensive way of treating patients.

Through the conventional method of treatment, teeth were tied in with elastics, which caused friction and pressure, making treatment slower and less comfortable.

Damon braces use a slide mechanism to hold the wire, which allows teeth to move more freely, quickly and comfortably.

Damon3 braces are designed to be discreet, comfortable and easy to keep clean. Without the elastic ties which attract and collect plaque, Damon 3 braces make dental hygiene easy during treatment.

Explaining the operational mechanism of this technology, Dr Asma said that the self-ligating aspect eliminates the need for elastic or metal ties.

With Damon tie-less braces, treatment is imparted without tightening. This system enables teeth to move faster and needs only fewer adjustments as compared to the conventional system.

It aligns the teeth and enhances facial aesthetics - usually without extractions or rapid palatal expanders.

Highlighting the feature of the Damon 3 system, Dr. Asma said this technology is in most demand now as it reduces time- factor and replaces other parameters of conventional treatment.

Better facial aesthetics, such as smoother cheek contours, make smiles look fuller as compared to the conventional systems, she added.

'CDC is proud to have such advanced dental technology and in future we shall use other advancements for treating our valued visitors,' said Dr Asma.

It has a modern and pragmatic approach to the Dental Care. The centre since its establishment is being looked after by a team of well- known doctors and dental professionals equipped with sophisticated equipments and state-of-the-art technology, the statement added.-TradeArabia News Service
