Summary

this randomized controlled trial is designed to compare between clear aligner therapy in alleviating mandibular anterior crowding alone versus with micro-osteoperforations

Conditions

  • Mandibular Dental Crowding

Interventions

DEVICE

clear aligners group

patients with lower anterior crowding, after randomization and allocation, will receive intraoral scanning to create a digital model. using computer software, teeth segmentation, setup and stagging of tooth movement will be carried out. models for each stage of tooth movement will be three-dimentionally printed and the aligners will be thermoformed over each model. patients are instructed to wear each aligner for a week then continue to the next aligner till treatment is finished

DEVICE

micro-osteoperforations group

patients having lower anteriro crowding, after randomization and allocation, aligners will be produced for them. patients in this group will receive micro-osteoperforation using mini-implants before wearing the first aligner and after one month from starting treatment.
