All Clear Damon Braces

We are proud to offer the latest state of the art in aesthetic Orthodontic treatment. Dr. Thomas incorporated the New All Clear Damon Brackets this year & overwhelmingly they've been a huge hit! Not only do they never discolor (no matter what you drink or eat), they are smoother and smaller than even the most comfortable Damon Braces. Poway Braces stays in the forefront of up to date techniques and materials by regularly attending continuing education courses all over the country.

Braces completed in 3-8 months?


Recently, Dr. Thomas attended a fascinating course given by Dr. Wilko from Pennsylvania. He (Periodontist – gum specialist) and his brother (who is an Orthodontist) have developed a technique whereby specialized gum procedures combined with braces produce remarkable changes in a very short amount of time.

If you would like to learn more about this technique please visit www.wilkodontics.com

The Value of Damon Braces


What a difference straight teeth make - look at what can happen with braces. Dr. William Thomas and his team take pride in delivering quality care and treatment results for his patients. He practices in Poway, California and can be found online @ www.powaybraces.com.

When teeth are severely misaligned amazing changes are seen while using the Damon System of braces and wires. This philosophy includes using a self ligation bracket - simply put, a brace that is a tube the wire slides through rather than traditional braces whereby rubber elastic ties grip and push the wire into the brace. Is there a difference? Absolutely! The amount of friction created by rubber elastic ties is significant and increases the number of appointments required to complete treatment.

Upcoming Summer Patient Appreciation BBQ!

We are planning a really fun event combining a BBQ with an Outdoor Movie in the Old Poway Park - next to the train on Midland Road. Our entire team at Poway Braces thank and sincerely appreciate our patients and their families who trust us with their smiles!

One way our orthodontic office shows our appreciation is through hosting events & give away prizes in our office. Last month we held a contest where the winner received a really cool guitar. Its never overlooked by Poway Braces that you have a choice for your orthodontist and we want to be the office you choose.


Please visit our web site at www.powaybraces.com to learn a lot more about who we are and what we are all about. Make sure to check out our blog on the web site as well - we have great information posted on it as well.

Poway Braces Loves Your New Smile

All of us at Poway Braces say - Congratulations Cindy! We really enjoyed having both you and your wonderful daughter in our practice. Did your husband really say you look like a hot new wife??

Dr. Thomas wishes you and your family a great year; we will miss your fun laugh, your warm wishes, and seeing you on a regular basis.



When people ask us whether or not the Damon System can really widen a smile without surgery - all we have to do is think of the fantastic change in your smile & width of your teeth - and how much it fills out the corners of your mouth and smile - to know without a shadow of a doubt that it really does!

Tooth Brushing and Braces


Written by Dr Thomas' Team:

Here at Dr Thomas' office, we are dedicated in providing our patients with the very best tools and training for achieving exceptional oral hygiene while wearing Damon Braces.

Did you know that before you even come in for your initial exam appointment with us, we have already contacted your dentist to see when you had your last cleaning appointment and if you have any pending work still needed to complete (for example cavities)? We work closely with your dentist during the duration of your orthodontic treatment.

At your bonding appointment (when your braces are put on), we go over detailed cleaning instructions and give you a hygiene kit. This kit comes with a traveling case to keep it organized. Our hygiene kit includes a dual headed toothbrush, travel toothbrush, 15 yard mint flavor floss, 3 minute sand timer (you should be brushing 3 minutes each arch), dental floss threaders, orthodontic wax, and a mouth mirror.

Poor Brushing can cause permanent damage to your teeth & we want to make sure this does not happen. Proper brushing helps keep teeth clean and healthy. To brush your teeth properly you must brush under, above, behind, and around all surfaces of every tooth and bracket. Remember to brush the inside and the outside of both the top and bottom gums.

Make sure to check after rinsing, and if your teeth and brackets are not clean and shining.....brush them again.

Lastly, remember to floss carefully around each tooth. This process is more time consuming than without braces but if done regularly will help keep your teeth healthy. Only floss the ones you want to keep :-)

Happy New Year!

Toothfully yours, Dr Thomas & Team

Clear 'Invisable' Aligners


Need braces, but don’t want to deal with all of the discomfort and restrictions that are included with them? Then maybe Invisable aligners are your answer.

Braces are not just for kids anymore. Many adults who have suffered from crowded, unsightly teeth are electing to correct their smile. We offer “Clear Aligner” invisible braces. They are used to correct cases with rotated teeth, tipped teeth, and minor relapse cases. If there is enough space the correction can be made with just resets.

Your Invisible Aligner treatment will consist of a series of clear aligners that you switch out about every two - three weeks. Each aligner is individually manufactured with exact calculations to gradually shift your teeth into place. And since your Aligner system is custom-made for your teeth and your teeth only, with a plan devised by you and your doctor, you know you’ll end up with a smile that truly fits.

Clear Aligners are the best way to transform your smile without interfering with your day-to-day life if your bite qualifies for this type of tooth movement and correction.

If you’re ready for a smile that transforms your appearance, Powaybraces.com is your answer. Although there are many choices out there, no other orthodontic practice works as hard at making your entire experience efficient and enjoyable.

We use the Damon System - Why does it matter???


Young and old, male and female, the Damon System delivers remarkable results. Dr William Thomas is an expert using this system. He has taught this system in multiple universities throughout the US and South America including Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, and Columbia.

The Damon System is based on a unique treatment philosophy that goes beyond straight teeth. Damon Doctors are trained to take the whole patient into account: the shape of your face, your profile, what you will look like into your 40s, 50s… and beyond.

Many people see a noticeable change not just in their teeth, but in their entire face. Often this result is without the use of 'palatal expanders', extractions, or surgery. The following are changes we see using the Damon System:

  • A fuller, wider smile
  • Better facial balance and aesthetics
  • Smoother cheek contours which make narrow
    smiles look fuller and more inviting
  • Fewer dark triangles within the corners
    of your mouth
  • Straighter, less crowded & crooked teeth,
  • Improved profiles…for a more youthful
    look at any age!

Many patients begin to see these dramatic results in as little as 10 weeks. Treatment that used to take 2-3 years and/or surgery, are now treated in 16-18 months and treated without surgery. The patient in this blog had 5 other consultations where he was told this exact plan: Surgery and 2-3 years. We used the Damon System, he did not have surgery, and finished treatment in 17 months. Evaluate the changes yourself - do you like the end result?

Visit our website (www.powaybraces.com), become informed, and come see us to see how the Damon System can help give you the smile you've always wanted.
