This randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be conducted to assess differences in treatment outcomes with these two different self-ligation bracket systems.\n\nSubjects\u002FMaterials and Methods: This randomized clinical trial included 40 participants with full permanent dentition (excluding third molars) exhibiting Angle Class I malocclusion with moderate crowding. Patients who were scheduled to undergo orthodontic treatment were allocated into two groups: Damon Ultima and Pitts 21 Pro. The total treatment duration will be measured in months from the bonding day to the completion of treatment, in addition to the number of visits.\n\nPre-treatment, post-alignment, and post-treatment records were obtained, including intraoral scans (IOS) for assessing alignment efficiency and arch parameters. Periapical radiographs of the upper and lower incisors were taken before and after treatment to measure the amount of root resorption. Treatment outcomes were evaluated using the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) grading system. Additionally, pain perception and patient treatment perception were assessed.",[26,27,28,29],"Orthodentic Appliances","Orthodontic Pathological Resorption of External Root","Orthodontic Pain","Orthodontic Brackets","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-05-01",{"date":33,"type":34},"2026-05-04","ACTUAL",{"date":36,"type":20},"2026-05-31",{"date":38,"type":20},"2028-03",{"name":40,"class":41},"University of Baghdad","OTHER",{"id":43,"slug":44,"hasResults":11,"nctId":45,"briefTitle":46,"officialTitle":47,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":48,"healthyVolunteers":49,"sex":16,"minAge":17,"maxAge":50,"enrollmentInfo":51,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":21,"phases":53,"briefSummary":54,"conditions":55,"keywords":4,"overallStatus":56,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":57,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":58,"startDateStruct":60,"completionDateStruct":62,"leadSponsor":64,"locationsCount":65},"100615543","pain-control-during-braces-removal-using-transcutaneous-electrical-nerve-stimulation-and-high-frequency-vibration-100615543","NCT07293975","Pain Control During Braces Removal Using Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation and High-Frequency Vibration","Assessment of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation and High-Frequency Vibration for Pain Control During Bracket Debonding: A Clinical Trial Study","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
