With a clean, simple and intuitive design--complete with location detection technology, social sharing capabilities and access to driving directions--the easy-to-use search tool is powered by cutting-edge web technologies for a fast user experience. The Damon Doctor Locator, with advanced location detection technology, presents precise search results without the need to input an address or postal zip code. To further ease the process of finding an orthodontist, the Damon Doctor Locator now allows consumers to conveniently share search results and doctor contact information via email, Twitter or Facebook using social sharing buttons. The sharing features embedded within the Damon Doctor Locator are ideal for family members and friends searching on behalf of an individual in need of braces. "With integration across web, mobile and Facebook platforms, the Damon Doctor Locator is an invaluable tool to help those interested in orthodontic treatment or debating investing in braces better explore the available options and connect directly with a leading, local orthodontist," said Dr. John Graham, D.D.S., M.D. "With a visually appealing interface, the user-friendly tool offers potential patients unmatched ease of use in finding a Damon System provider."

Similarly, the location tool has been updated to seamlessly function within Facebook. Accessible via the Damon System Braces Facebook page, the application gives patients seeking orthodontic treatment an opportunity to search for a Damon System orthodontist without exiting Facebook.
