Digital dentistry: which bracket bonding method wins?
NCT ID NCT07503626
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested two different digital techniques for placing braces brackets to see which one is more accurate. Eighteen people with mild to moderate crowding got brackets placed using both methods in different parts of their mouth. The goal was to measure how close the actual bracket positions matched the planned positions and to check if any brackets fell off right away.
