Brief Summary
Although mini screw insertion is considered as a simple and non-invasive technique, it's a critical procedure which requires precision and accuracy. The placement of mini-screw poses a challenge to the orthodontist, particularly if the space available for mini-screws is limited.4 The proximity to the vital structures surrounding the proposed mini-screw position necessitates the precise knowledge of the anatomy of the insertion area.5 The incidence of mini-screw to tooth contact in the placement of inter-radicular region was 27%.6 Although failure of mini screw is considered a multi-factorial concern, many studies reported the proximity of a mini-screw to tooth structures is a major risk factor for failure, especially in the inter-radicular inserted mini-screws. guided insertion was believed to give more favorable results. Above all, the recent technology of the scanning and three-dimensional printing could pave the way to construct a simple accurate guide. Additionally all previous studies assessed the insertion accuracy using CBCT post-operatively, that can't be applied on human subjects for ethical reasons. Thus a non-invasive method for assessment of mini-screw insertion should be implemented.

Study Arms (2)
Three dimensional printed digital guide
EXPERIMENTALone mini-screw will be inserted in the buccal interradicular space between upper second premolar and first molar using Three dimensional printed digital guide, which is a device deisgned and printed through CAD/CAM technology, it's a printed plate fit on the teeth and buccal mucosa with a channel for mini- screw insertion, mini-screw will be inserted through the plate's channel
Conventional free hand insertion
NO INTERVENTIONone mini-screw will be inserted in the buccal interradicular space between upper second premolar and first molar using conventional free hand insertion of mini-screw, which is a technique using the guiding anatomy for mini-screw insertion using the driver and the operator's skill.
Interventions
A CAD/CAM printed plate with a channel for mini-screw insertion
