Abstract

The introduction of brackets marked a significant shift in orthodontics, as they allowed for greater control and precision in tooth movement. The Ribbon Arch bracket designed by Angle was a significant innovation, paving the way for further advancements in bracket design. Dr. Ronald H Roth's contribution to bracket design through clinical trial and error is noteworthy. His work led to the development of a more effective appliance, which has undergone further modifications over time. Understanding the evolution of orthodontic brackets and their advantages and disadvantages is essential for orthodontic practitioners. This knowledge can help them select the most suitable bracket for their patient’s treatment plans. It is also important to conduct further research on the biocompatibility, aesthetics, and treatment outcomes of various bracket types to make informed decisions that can lead to better patient outcomes.
