Any good quality bracket will do the job, there are so many good companies available : Ormco, 3M, Leone, forestadent, ortho-  organizers, even some indian companies are also too good. Most important part is doctors plan and skill, a good doctor can deliver amazing results even with decent brackets . Just maintain hygiene properly .

3M Brackets are generally a very good quality. But the success and time of treatment is in the dentists treatment plan. Rest self ligating if can be an option, also reduces the time of treatment by a few months Regards Dr Akshada. A. Gupta The Dental Clinic, Mumbai
Health Tips
Please get scaling done before the treatment and do a regular flossing.

First of let me congratulate u on your decision to start with the treatment. U r in the process of moving towards a beautiful smile. Treatment planning is always the most important part of any treatment rather then the make and brand of the braces. Having said that 3M braces do process a superior quality. Do ask your doctor about the food u need to take and how to maintain a good oral hygiene with the braces in place.
