Summary

This study looks at a small wire called a laceback used with braces. It checks if the laceback affects how clean teeth stay, how often wires break, and how much pain people feel. About 38 people getting braces will have one side of their mouth get the laceback and the other side not, so doctors can compare. The goal is to see if lacebacks make treatment easier or cause more problems.
