Abstract

Brackets are corrective appliances used in cases of dental problems such as crowding, open bites, among others. Over time, brackets have advanced in the design and materials used for their manufacture, going from conventional brackets with rubber bands and metal ligatures to self-ligating brackets, whose incorporated system allows them to be attached to the archwire. In this sense, the aim of this review is to compare the treatment time between self-ligating brackets versus conventional orthodontics. For this purpose, 41 articles were selected from various databases, considering that they were related to the time treatment. Both traditional and self-ligating brackets have their own characteristics and functions, however, so far it has not been demonstrated that one is more effective than the other in terms of treatment time. It is important to highlight time treatment depends on malocclusion type and patient cooperation.
