The topic of bracket removal and enamel integrity has been extensively investigated. Nevertheless, bracket removal, as far as pain and/or discomfort are concerned, is poorly delineated in the orthodontic literature, i.e., the scarcity of reports in this area is conspicuous. In fact, only six studies were retrieved upon a PubMed search. These clinical studies performed with metal brackets are presented in a chronological order in the present review. Pain and/or discomfort during bracket removal are urgently in need of additional studies. The orthodontists have to be well-informed and updated to convey all the aspects of this procedure to the patient.
关于托槽拆除和牙釉质完整性的话题已经得到了广泛研究。然而，就疼痛和/或不适而言，正畸文献中对托槽拆除的描述并不充分，也就是说，该领域的报告稀缺现象十分明显。事实上，在PubMed搜索中仅检索到六项研究。本综述按时间顺序介绍了这些使用金属托槽进行的临床研究。托槽拆除过程中的疼痛和/或不适迫切需要更多研究。正畸医生必须充分了解并及时更新信息，以便向患者传达该操作的所有方面。
