Damon Smiles Braces in New Roads, LA

Damon Smile Braces Near New Roads

Our local orthodontists are pleased to offer Damon Smile braces for patients seeking braces around New Roads. Damon braces have several advantages when compared to traditional braces. They utilize a slide mechanism to hold the archwire, which reduces the pressure placed on your teeth. Lowering pressure on your teeth will allow them to move more quickly, comfortably, and freely.

Another advantage of Damon braces for New Roads patients is their smaller brackets, leading to less rubbing inside of the mouth. Everyone knows the pain and sores that braces can cause from rubbing against these sensitive tissues; Damon braces greatly reduce these discomforts. Patients opting for Damon braces can expect shorter treatment times with a more comfortable experience when compared with traditional braces technology.

What Can Braces Help With?

Gum Disease

Gum disease, already a concerning problem in Americans, is prevented by braces in the long run. Braces will move your teeth into proper positioning for easy flossing and brushing. Without their efforts, food is much more likely to become stuck in crevices in the mouth and cause issues over time.

Bone Erosion

Bone erosion is a less common dental problem in America, but it’s still something prevented with the good implementation of braces. Long-entrenched bacteria or frequent oral grinding will wear away at the jaw. This can cause strain injuries, protruding teeth, and even cracks. Accidents only compound the bad outcomes; people with bad jaws and misaligned teeth are more likely to be harmed by impact-related accidents like falls.

Chewing Difficulties

Braces will slowly help with aligning the jaw, especially in populations like children who are still undergoing the process of jaw development. By rebalancing the teeth and encouraging proper bone directional growth, will also prevent bad bite patterns and malocclusions that make chewing food thoroughly difficult. As chewing is essential to the digestive system’s later work, making sure that it can be done easily and without pain is a must.

Tooth Decay

Tooth decay is also a common problem that is addressed by braces. Since we believe in preventative oral health, protecting the enamel layer on your teeth is our primary concern when preventing tooth and gum rot. There is only so much dense enamel on each tooth before it is permanently eroded. Braces will prevent the buildup of excess acids and harmful bacteria that enjoy malaligned teeth and snug places.

Self-Esteem

People getting braces in New Roads have elevated their self-image, too. Although challenging to talk about for some, sporting a crooked smile can put a damper on wanting to smile at all in the first place. This can lead to a disproportionately aligned jaw, especially in younger people, if left untreated.

Bethanye N Shanklin Apr 6, 2025
As a senior citizen, my teeth were all turning sideways. Even if no one else noticed, I did every time I brushed my teeth. It's been a little over a year and I've completed my treatment. I'm so pleased. It's never too late to correct your teeth. My teeth are straight, even, and look great; I may even smile for you. Mr. Jim and staff did an excellent job and took such good care of me. I'm Jennie and Fruge'...

Dr. Jim Fruge did my braces 20 years ago and now he’s treating two of my kids and the third will start this summer. Even before starting treatment, he saw all 3 of my kids multiple times to track their progress to start their treatments at the right time and not rush us into putting braces on. He understands kids will break brackets or not be as diligent as they should with rubber bands, but he makes sure they understand...

My teenage boys and I have been to both the Denham Springs and Baton Rouge locations for the duration of our treatment. I love the flexibility of the scheduling to accommodate both our work and school times. Dr. Jim is always encouraging and definitely knows what he’s doing. We all started our journey in 2023 and are expected to be finished this year.

Very friendly and prompt service. We did not have to wait at all during the appointment. Dr Jim was wonderful, patient, and caring. He did a great job of relieving my son's anxiety.
Teri Hall Mar 27, 2025
Dr. Jim is a competent, and a good guy. After 3 years, 7 filling and got all of my wisdom teeth taken out, my teeth are now healthy. I've attached before and after photos. Before getting orthodontic treatment, I was very insecure and anxious about my smile. Growing up, I was poor and couldn't get brace until I grew up and got a job. I'd do my best to smile without showing my teeth. Now, I'm comfortable smiling and showing...

Amanda Newman Mar 13, 2025
Quick, easy, and really nice workers. I have only ever gone to the location in Denham Springs, but I had to go to the location in Baton Rouge to get my braces removed since I had to push it back b/c I got sick. The staff were very nice and friendly. I’m unsure of the name of the orthodontic assistant who actually removed my braces but she was very nice and good at her job. I didn’t get poked or...
