Patients in Group A will undergo safe-T separators i.e initial thickness of Safe-T separators will be 1mm, Patients in Group B will undergo conventional elastomeric separators i.e thickness of elastomeric separators will be 1.2 mm. Separators will be positioned on either side of lower arch, each type of separator will be in sites, resulting in a sites within the lower arch. A separator placement tool will be utilised to position the separators.
