Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
* Group MET: stainless steel brackets will be bonded on the vestibular surfaces of teeth.
* Group CER: ceramic brackets will be bonded on the vestibular surfaces of teeth. Before the bonding on maxillary dental arch, a periodontal evaluation will be conducted recording the following periodontal indices: PPD, BoP, BS, GI, PI, BEWE and Schiff Air Index. Indices will be recorded after 1, 3 and 6 months after the bonding, separately for both in maxillary and in mandibular dental arches. Only teeth with brackets bonded will be considered.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Group MET
Patients from this group will undergo orthodontic fixed treatment with stainless steel brackets.
Fixed orthodontic treatment with stainless steel brackets
Stainless steel brackets (Queen Series Low Profile Brackets MBT 0.022", Aestetika, Terni, TR, Italy) will be applied on the vestibular surfaces of teeth to perform orthodontic treatment.
Group CER
Patients from this group will undergo orthodontic fixed treatment with ceramic brackets.
Fixed orthodontic treatment with ceramic brackets
Ceramic brackets (Super Clear Series Brackets MBT 0.022", Aestetika, Terni, TR, Italy) will be applied on the vestibular surfaces of teeth to perform orthodontic treatment.
