Summary

This completed study looked at how clear aligners and fixed braces affect bite forces after treating mild front-tooth crowding. Twelve people aged 14-22 with mild crowding and no extractions were treated with either clear aligners or fixed braces. The goal was to see which method leads to a more balanced bite.
