Brief Summary
The aim of this Randomized clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of the double slot brackets compared to single slot-brackets in producing a controlled rate of upper canine retraction into premolar extraction space. patients will be randomly divided into one of the two groups, CBCT (cone beam computed tomography) and dental models will be taken for each patient Pre-retraction and following the study completion. The rate of retraction will be evaluated for both groups as well as Amount of canine root movement and molar anchorage loss will be also assessed.

Study Arms (2)
Single-slot brackets
ACTIVE COMPARATORBonding of the upper arch up to second molars with Roth prescription 0.022x.028" single slot brackets (MINI MS-American orthodontics)
Double-slot brackets
EXPERIMENTALDouble slot brackets (SORTECH-South Orthodontic Technology) will be Bonded on the upper arch up to the second molars. The brackets are of Roth prescription \& have two slots, cervical 0.018x.025" slot and incisal/occlusal 0.022x.028" slot
Interventions
Miniscrews will be inserted in the buccal alveolar bone between first and second molars bilaterally and ligated to second premolar. Canine Retraction using Nickel titanium closed-coil springs delivering a force of 150 gram, extending the spring between the canine and first molar hooks. retraction on double 0.016'' Stainless steel round wires in both slots of the double slot brackets. Re-activation of the coil spring will be done in the follow up visits to maintain a constant force through the study.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Good oral hygiene.
- Adult Male or Female patients with an age range of 16-26 years old.
- Full set of permanent dentition(excluding third molar).
- Any kind of malocclusion requiring first premolar extraction and canine retraction.
- Patients with type/pattern of crowding that allows leveling and alignment before premolar extraction
You may not qualify if:
- History of previous orthodontic treatment.
- Craniofacial deformity.
- Systematic disease or administrating drugs affecting tooth movement.
- Poor oral health.
