Braces showdown: do Self-Ligating brackets really straighten teeth faster?

NCT ID NCT07503314

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compared self-ligating braces (no elastic ties) with conventional braces to see which aligns teeth faster, changes arch width, and closes gaps after premolar extractions. Seventy people aged 13–30 with moderate to severe crowding took part. Results help orthodontists choose the best bracket type for treatment.
