Resumo

Manufacturers and traders of self-ligating systems have been investing heavily in marketing during the past few years to sell the idea of greater efficiency of this treatment system compared to treatment with conventional systems. However, despite the growing popularity and excellent acceptance by users and orthodontists, the opinion that there is effectively a clinical superiority of the self-ligating system over the conventional system is not yet consensual within the scientific community. Therefore, in view of the diversity of divergent opinions on this topic, the objective of the present study is to carry out a comparative analysis between the treatment system with self-ligating brackets and the treatment systems with conventional brackets.

Palavras-chave
