Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
At the end of the study we expect a decrease in Surface roughness and friction resistance of the wire.Timepoint: once after 21 days after placement of wire.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Since the wire used is coated with a material, the archwire can be used in patients for esthetics.Timepoint: once after 21 days of placement of wire.	—
