title: A clinical longitudinal comparative study of the orthodontic treatments of triplets utilizing three different fixed orthodontic techniques.
abstract: This is a progressive, longitudinal study of the treatment of triplets each with a different orthodontic technique. The opportunity was seized to compare the treatment times, number of adjustments and results when simultaneously treating three identical individuals with very different treatment philosophies and brackets--Tweed, MBT and Tip-Edge. This was a once-in-a-lifetime comparison.
