Goals

Self-ligating brackets are an unquestionable advance in modern orthodontics. And without a doubt, the Damon System has been the fundamental pillar for its popularity. In this course you will acquire the basic knowledge of the Damon passive self-ligating bracket system to be able to apply it in the clinic, understanding its diagnosis and mechanics, understanding the step by step to handle it perfectly.

Module 1

Introduction to self-ligation

Pillars of the Damon System

Muscular Concepts: Functional Balance – Muscular Anchorage - Neutral Zone

Periodontal concepts: Biozone - Light and strong forces

Arches : Metallographic characteristics – Composition and behavior – Phase transformation – Arc shape and diagram – Tops

Brackets: Differences with conventional ligation – Evolution of the bracket – Passive and active self-ligation – Drop in Hooks – Aesthetic Brackets

Introduction to torque prescription: High – Low – Standard

Demonstrative clinical cases
