“…12 The increase in the lower incisor angulation was statistically significant in both SL (3.15 ± 6.78) and CL (7.13 ± 5.53) groups, and higher in CL. A number of studies 8,11,[13][14][15][16][17][18][19] on this variable show an increase in the IMPA in SL and CL, but no differences between either group was shown in the present study. Some of these studies 8,13,17,19 highlight the direct relation between the initial crowding and the increase in IMPA.…”

Introduction: Several advantages have been established regarding the efficiency of self-ligating brackets (SL). In spite of some controversy surrounding this question in the literature, clinical results confirm that “arch development” requires fewer extractions. Objective: The objective of this study was to compare changes in the transverse and sagittal planes in patients treated with conventional ligating brackets (CL)as well as in patients treated with SL brackets and oversized arches. Methods: A sample was selected from a pool of 300 consecutive cases treated by a single clinician: 51 patients with SL brackets and oversized wires, and 55 with CL brackets. These two groups were compared with a control group of 20 patients. All plaster models were scanned and dental landmarks were measured to identify changes from commencement (T0) to conclusion (T1) of treatment. Lateral cephalograms were analyzed for changes in the lower incisor (IMPA) and the first lower molar distal angulation (MAng). Intraoperator reliability was tested with linear regression analysis. To assure all groups were comparable at T0, an ANOVA test with a 95%confidence interval (CI) was performed for all values. To assess changes from T0 to T1 in all groups, a Student’s t-test with 95% CI was used. Finally, results from the three groups were compared using an ANOVA-test (95% CI) and a post-hoc test. Results: Increases in all the transverse variables were recorded in the two groups treated (SL and CL), except for the lower intercanine distance in the SL group. IMPA difference from T0 to T1 was higher in the CL group, and molar distal angulation (MAng) took place in the SL group. Conclusions: Self-ligating brackets with oversized arches and conventional ligating brackets showed increases in all variables in the transverse plane, except for the SL group at the mandibular intercanine distance. In comparison with the CL group, fewer different IMPA values were observed in the SL group, in which distal molar angulation occurred.

“…The results of the present study showed that the changes in the maxillary and mandibular dental measurements during the three-year follow-up period were insignificant in the conventional and self-ligating bracket groups. Similar to the present study, only Basciftci et al 15 evaluated the long-term dentoalveolar effects of self-ligating brackets. However, these authors 15 did not compare the experimental group to a control group.…”

“… 12 It has also been claimed that passive self-ligating brackets can introduce stable arch dimensional changes. 13 However, few studies 14 , 15 in the literature have evaluated the stability of treatment results associated with self-ligating bracket systems.…”

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the longitudinal stability of the conventional straight-wire system after the use of a quad-helix appliance with Damon self-ligating system in patients with Class I malocclusion. Methods: 27 adolescent patients were evaluated at three different periods: pre-treatment (T1), post-treatment (T2) and three years post-treatment (T3). Group 1 included 12 patients (with a mean age of 14.65 year) treated with Damon 3MX bracket system; and Group 2 included 15 patients (with a mean age of 14.8 year) who underwent orthodontic treatment with Roth prescribed brackets after expansion with Quad-Helix appliance. Relapse was evaluated with dental cast examination and cephalometric radiograph tracings. Statistical analysis was performed with IBM-SPSS for Windows software, version 21 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL). A p-value smaller than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: There were significant increases in all transverse dental and postero-anterior measurements (except for UL6-ML mm in Group 1) with active treatment. There was some significant relapse in the long-term in inter-canine width in both groups and in the inter-first premolar width in Group 2 (p< 0.05). Significant decrease in all frontal measurements from T2 to T3 was seen for both groups. Upper and lower incisors significantly proclined in T1-T2 (p< 0.05), however no relapse was found for both groups. When two systems were compared, there was no significant difference for the long-term follow-up period. Conclusion: Conventional (quad-helix appliance with conventional brackets) and Damon systems were found similar with regard to the long-term incisor positions and transverse dimension changes of maxillary arch.

“…6,7 An alternative to the heavy force delivered by RPE appliances is the application of light, continuous buccal force to achieve maxillary expansion. Clinical outcomes indicate that this effect is physiologically possible, 8,9 but the underlying biological mechanisms are unknown. Periodontally healthy teeth can be moved extensively within the alveolar process; however, molar tooth movement in the buccal direction is thought 10 to be limited by the thickness of the buccal plate of bone.…”
