Abstract
Although the new self-ligating appliances have revolutionized thinking in orthodontics, extreme caution should be used in treatment planning. In fact, more data are needed on the neoformation of bone induced by the interaction between brackets and light forces and on the stability of treatments performed with expansion that has until recently been considered excessive. Therefore, one of the most frequent orthodontic problems, dental crowding, is still being approached with solutions that are often antithetical.
