This case had severe crowding, and the upper and lower midlines did not line up. One lower front tooth bit in front of the upper teeth (a crossbite), and the upper canines sat high in the gum. Dr. Natthanan Rujeerapaiboon (Dr. Gig) treated the case. She planned the extraction of 4 teeth to create space to correct the crowding. At the end of treatment the teeth were neatly aligned, the upper and lower midlines matched, and the patient’s smile looked noticeably better.

This case shows treatment with Damon Clear braces.
The patient came to us with two concerns:
Dr. Natthanan Rujeerapaiboon (Dr. Gig) planned the treatment without extractions, using arch expansion and elastics to open up space for aligning the teeth.
The braces chosen were the Damon system, which uses self-ligating brackets with a built-in clip. This reduces friction, so the teeth move efficiently and with less pain. After treatment, the patient’s teeth were neatly aligned, the front teeth stuck out less and the bite was improved. Treatment took 1.5 years. Damon Clear starts at 80,000 THB.

Dr. Gig straightened crooked, crowded teeth with braces and no extractions. This patient came in with crowding, a deep bite and upper and lower midlines that did not line up. With careful treatment planning, Dr. Gig moved the teeth without extracting any, so they now sit straighter and in better alignment, with a good bite.
