Orthodontic treatment is branch of dentistry which corrects various types of malocclusions and improves smile esthetics and functional occlusion efficacy. This requires application of force on teeth using archwires, springs, loops, elastic chains etc to move teeth in their proper position. This can be possible by fixing some attachments on to the teeth. These attachments can be fixed either by banding of teeth or bonding. In banding procedure, bands are pinched around teeth, on which attachments are fixed, attachments may be bracket, molar tube, lingual button or lingual sheath. In bonding, attachments are directly fixed on teeth by using resin material. This article will discuss in brief about banding and bonding to conclude which is better.
