Abstract:

Aim: Objectives to investigate the skeletal and dental alveolar changes of patients with deferent malocclusion treated with Damon Ultima Brackets.Material and methods: This retrospective cephalometric and clinical study was performed on a sample of 8 patients with aged 12-14 years with different malocclusion. 4 patients would be treated with the Damon Ultima, and 4 with the Damon Q.

Results: The groups of patients treated with Damon Ultima showed significantly better results compared to the other groups treated with Damon Q Brackets. especially it was the angulation, rotation in / out, and the vertical torque

CONCLUSIONS: Achieve high quality finishes with 1st, 2nd, and 3rd order tooth control with proper functional occlusion and archform (4th order) without bending archwires.

2. Dramatically simplifies treatment mechanics that are so easy to use for clinicians and staff.
