Damon braces are a passive self-ligating fixed brace system: the bracket holds the wire with a small sliding door instead of elastic ties. We provide them at our Primrose Hill practice to align teeth and correct bites.

Clinical care led by Dr Kia Papagalani, specialist orthodontist (GDC No. 228487).
Conventional braces hold the wire with elastic ties, which add friction and need changing at each visit. Damon brackets do without them. If you are comparing orthodontics in London and want a fixed appliance with lower-friction mechanics, Damon is one of the options Dr Papagalani will assess you for. Clear Damon brackets are also available for a less visible look.
Leave your number and we will call you back. Nothing is booked until you say so.
We plan diagnosis first, so the clinical strategy matches your anatomy before any bracket is fitted, and the fee is itemised before you commit.
If another route fits better, we can discuss Invisalign First for younger patients, and every plan ends with orthodontic retainers to hold the result.
Patients who need a fixed appliance and would rather have fewer adjustment visits. If you would prefer conventional brackets, we also provide fixed metal braces. The specialist orthodontist confirms suitability at your consultation, where we also go through orthodontics costs in London.
We examine your bite and alignment and confirm whether Damon braces or clear ceramic braces fit your case, then set the expected timeline.
We bond the brackets to your teeth. The sliding door on each bracket holds the wire without elastic ties, which reduces friction as the teeth move.
You attend regular reviews and we change the wires as the teeth move. Early movement can be uncomfortable, and we tell you how to manage it.
As the teeth align we close remaining gaps and correct the tilt of each tooth so the upper and lower teeth meet correctly.
Once the braces come off we fit a retainer. Our orthodontic aftercare guide covers wear and cleaning.
We plan with 3D imaging, which lets us show you a preview of the planned movement before treatment begins. Treatment is led by Dr Papagalani, specialist orthodontist.
Damon is one of several systems here. For removable treatment we provide the Invisalign range: Invisalign Express for minor corrections and slight relapse, plus Invisalign Full, Invisalign Lite, Teen and First.
Each bracket has a sliding door that holds the archwire in place, so no elastic ties are needed.
The fee depends on the complexity of your case and is itemised at your consultation. If you want a hidden option instead, we can discuss lingual braces.
It depends on your case. We set the expected timeframe at your initial assessment.

The consultation settles whether Damon braces are the most effective system for your teeth or whether Invisalign First, metal, ceramic, lingual or other self-ligating braces would serve you better, and covers retainers.
You leave with a written plan and an itemised quote that is yours to keep and use at any other practice. Arrange your assessment with the specialist orthodontist to confirm your requirements. Payment particulars can be discussed with our staff.
