: This paper aims to verify the effectiveness of using elastodontic devices in the treatment of malocclusions in growing patients. An English-language literature search was conducted. The following electronic databases were selected for searching from 2020 to June 2023: PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus. Eight articles were included based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The articles examined highlight the ability of elastodontic devices to act in cases of malocclusion in a safe, simple and more comfortable way for the young patient. However, there is a lack of knowledge about this technique, so this study aims to review the most recent literature to provide the scientific community with new knowledge.
