Highlights
Orthodontics has been continually evolving since its time of inception
Study models of 20 patients who had undergone orthodontic treatment with Damon self ligating system and conventional ligating system were included in the study
Self ligating group treated with Damon Q brackets and Conventional brackets with MBT (3M Unitek)
Summary
Orthodontics has been continually evolving since its time of inception. There have been innumerable modifications in the bracket design as well. The study aims to assess the efficiency of self ligating brackets compared to the conventional brackets during the initial alignment stage. The study models were assessed for anterior arch alignment, extraction space closure and changes in intercanine widths at pre-operative stage and after 20 weeks of treatment T0, T1 ( 10 weeks), T2 ( 20 weeks). No significant difference in the extraction space closure
