Abstract

Smart braces are a new orthodontic appliance using advanced materials and sensors for improved tooth movement. This study compared
their efficiency, duration and patient satisfaction to traditional braces in a randomized hospital-based cohort of 120 patients. Data
showed significantly shorter treatment times and fewer adjustments with smart braces. Patients also reported higher comfort and
satisfaction levels. Thus, we show smart braces offer a more efficient and patient-friendly alternative to conventional orthodontic
treatment.
