New innovations from Ormco Corporation

You said you wanted the Damon^™ System available in more prescriptions. The Ormco team heard you.

Now, the Damon^™ System is available in an all new prescription — yours! With the introduction of Damon™ Custom this spring, you can order the exact prescription values* needed to best treat each individual patient.

An industry first, Damon Custom allows orthodontists to order their own prescription value for every upper and lower 5-5 Damon Custom bracket. Here’s how it works:

Stock your Rx — Order multiple kits of a popular Rx, modify an existing Rx, or create your own

OR

Order per patient — Order the Rx you deem necessary to best treat each individual case

Damon^™ Custom facts

Insignia^™ Ai

Here at Ormco, we’re excited to take digital orthodontics to the next level with the launch of Insignia^™ Ai. The newly introduced Insignia platform features a dramatically updated approver interface that is both user-friendly and visually appealing.

Meet the new approver interface

Insignia Ai’s clean, sleek design creates a more intuitive experience and now includes a Wizard that navigates users through the suggested approval process step by step to provide an added level of case support. Not sure what step is next or the best way to make a critical adjustment? Just let the Wizard guide you!

For a clearer visual of the smile transformation, a movie can be created that will superimpose the tooth movement from initial malocclusion to the final design of the patient’s smile. This visual is a great tool to help patients better understand the treatment process and build excitement for the final results.

Insignia Ai has combined two occlusion tools into a simultaneous function that allows you to interact with the patient’s occlusion from multiple angles. Now you have access to an unprecedented level of interactive visualization to achieve both the esthetics and occlusion you prefer.

In creating Insignia Ai, Ormco partnered with Dr. Dwight Damon to integrate Damon^™ System treatment mechanics. Clinicians now have the option to select the Damon^™ archform as the basis of their patient’s archform design. When selected, geometric algorithms based on the Damon archform will drive the design of the case. The clinician will also be able to view a virtual Damon ruler — an exact digital replica of the Damon^™ Arch Symmetry Template.
