“…Utilizing self-ligating bracket technology in a twin configuration that mimics a tube, the Damon system employs broad Copper Nickel Titanium arch wires to expand dental arches sufficiently, eliminating the need for extractions. 8 On the other hand, the MBT system, drawing from over 70 years of combined clinical experience, is specifically designed for sliding mechanics. This system emphasizes light continuous forces, incorporating lacebacks and bendbacks into its approach.…”

Aim: The aim of this study was to compare and evaluate the perception of patient’s soft tissue profiles treated with Damon and traditional braces (MBT) in non-extraction cases. Methods: The record of 14 patients (five Damon, five MBT, and four Duplicated) non extraction cases was included in the study. A total of 28 resulting profile silhouettes (pre- and post-treatment profile photographs) were evaluated by 90 examiners (orthodontists, general dentists, laypersons) using a Likert scale to rate the profiles randomly. Statistical analysis (Student t-test, ANOVA) revealed significant differences both between and within groups. Results: The Laypersons, General dentist, and Orthodontist significantly gave high scores for Damon system compared to (MBT system). It is seen that both male and female examiners gave high scores for Damon compared to MBT system. Conclusion: Damon system was found to have a perceptible difference in the profile improvement when compared to MBT with all three groups of examiners.

Transverse maxillomandibular discrepancies are a major component of several malocclusions. Clinically, posterior crossbite is a common and valid indicator of maxillary transverse problems and orthopedic and orthodontic forces are routinely used to correct maxillary transverse deficiency. However, crossbite and transverse discrepancies are not a homologous group but must be viewed as a continuum with varying degree of abnormality. The etiology, diagnostic protocol, rationale, and procedures employed for correcting maxillary transverse discrepancy in the absence of crossbite are discussed in the article.
