INTRODUCTION: Self-ligating brackets have been gaining popularity over the past several
decades. Various advantages for these systems have been claimed. The purposes of this …

Objective: To evaluate the clinical differences in relation to the use of self-ligating brackets in
orthodontics. Materials and Methods: Electronic databases were searched; no restrictions …

Objective: To compare the mandibular incisor proclination produced by fixed labial
appliances and third generation clear aligners. Materials and Methods: Patients underwent …

Introduction Our objectives were to evaluate marginal alveolar bone height in the anterior
mandible after orthodontic treatment and to assess any correlations between morphologic …

INTRODUCTION: This was a prospective randomized clinical trial comparing the effect of
bracket type on the duration of orthodontic treatment and the occlusal outcome as measured …

Introduction The purpose of this study was to compare maxillary arch dimensional and
inclination changes during alignment with conventional brackets and self-ligation. Methods …

Objectives: To assess the changes in the maxillary buccal alveolar bone during alignment
without extractions. Secondarily, to evaluate the changes in arch dimensions and …

Background Numerous strategies have been proposed to decrease orthodontic treatment
time. Photobiomodulation (PBM) has previously been demonstrated to assist in this …

Objective: To evaluate two different treatment systems with regard to incisor position,
transverse dimension changes in maxillary arch, changes in maxillary molar inclinations …

SUMMARY BACKGROUND: Fixed-appliance treatment is a major part of orthodontic
treatment, but clinical evidence remains scarce. OBJECTIVES: Objective of this systematic …
