EXPERIMENTALInterventions
The total sample will be randomly divided into two equal groups (according to method of application of the lipus on the intervention side)as follows: ■ Group I: will include 8 patients who will receive lipus with maxillary canine retraction that will be performed every (3 weeks) on intervention 6 sides according to a standardized protocol. ▪ Group II: will include 8 patients who will receive lipus that will be performed every (1 week) on intervention sides according to a standardized protocol.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- All patients should satisfy the following criteria:
- An age ranges from 15-22 years.
- Severe crowding or protrusion requiring 1st premolar extractions followed by symmetrical canine retraction.
- All permanent teeth present, 3rd molars are excluded.
- Good oral hygiene.
- No systemic disease/medication that could interfere with orthodontic tooth Movement (OTM).
- No previous orthodontic treatment.
You may not qualify if:
- \. Patient diagnosed to have an indication for non-extraction approach. 2. Poor oral hygiene or periodontally compromised patient. 5 3. Patient with craniofacial anomalies or previous history of trauma, bruxism or parafunctions. 4. Previous orthodontic treatment. 5. Any implanted assistive devices (e.g., pacemakers, cochlear implants, etc.) 6. Pregnant females.
