Ormco Damon Q - Self Ligating Bracket

Damon Q—Break Through

Open new doors to practice efficiency, clinical flexibility, patient comfort, and aesthetics with the all-new, all-metal Damon Q—a major step forward in low-friction, passive self-ligation technology that delivers far more than straight teeth.

Features:

Quintessential Performance and Reliability

• Four solid walls with optimized slot depths — including tighter tolerances on lower anterior brackets — offer improved rotation control and fast, low-friction tooth movement for superior finishing.
• Stainless steel 17-4 metal-injection-molded construction provides exceptional strength and durability over the course of treatment.

A Quantum Leap in Efficiency

Novel Treatment Flexibility

• Horizontal and vertical slots provide greater versatility for treatment involving high cuspids, blocked-out laterals, and more. Incorporate drop-in hooks, piggyback wires, or TAD auxiliaries — all while progressing through the Damon archwire sequence regardless of round or rectangular wires.
• Incorporate drop-in hooks, piggyback wires, or TAD auxiliaries — all while progressing through the Damon archwire sequence regardless of round or rectangular wires.

Reduce Treatment Time

Damon Q's auxiliary slots can incorporate sectional wires to quickly align teeth — such as blocked-out laterals — while maintaining the patient's natural wire sequence. These novel features can reduce the number of appointments and shorten overall treatment time.

Precision Bracket Placement

• Removable positioning gauge, rhomboid-shaped bracket, and pad, and vertical scribe line guide precision bracket placement for smile arc enhancement.
• Each positioning gauge is color-coded to aid in bracket selection and torque value identification.
  • Green: Low Torque
  • Blue: Standard Torque
  • Red: Super Torque

Ideal Tooth Inclination

• Variable torque brackets introduce torque correction gradually, beginning with the first light rectangular wires, to achieve optimal occlusal and esthetic results.
  • Minimize the guesswork of adding torque to wires later in treatment.
  • Allow roots to begin uprighting early during the rectangular wire-leveling phase.
  • Maintain anterior torque during major mechanics, avoiding round-tripping teeth, while maintaining posterior torque during maxillary width increases and bone adaptation.

There is +/- 10.5° of wire play between a .019 x .025 wire and the .022 x .028 lumen of the super-torque (+11°) Damon Q upper cuspid bracket for expressed torque of approximately 0.5°.
