Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Experimental group

Will includes 9 patients who will receive intrusive arche after leveling and alignment assisted with laser with wavelength 635 nm, 6.5J/cm2,The laser will be applied to 4 points of application for each tooth two labial and two palatal started immediately after first intrusive wire then at days 3,7,14 and then every 15 day until achievement of the study objectives

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

gallium aluminum arsenide (Ga-Al-As) semiconductor diode laser (SMARTTM PRO, LASOTRONIX, Poland)

Intervention Type DEVICE

The laser will be applied to 4 points of application for each tooth two labial and two palatal started immediately after first intrusive wire then at days 3,7,14 and then every 15 day until achievement of the study objectives

Control group

Will includes 9 patients who will receive intrusive arches after leveling and alignment without laser application

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

group B

Intervention Type OTHER

Will includes 9 patients who will receive intrusive arches after leveling and alignment without laser application
