Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1) Permanent dentition including right and left second molars in both the arches. 2) The patient with completed levelling and alignment, requiring Orthodontic treatment with first premolar extraction and ready to retract maxillary canines. 3) Good oral hygiene.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1) Any medical or dental condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, could negatively affect study results during the expected length of the study. 2) Currently using any investigational drug or any other investigational device. 3) Planning to relocate or move during the treatment period. 4) Allergic to acetaminophen (use of aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs is excluded for patients while on the study). 5) Use of bisphosphonates (osteoporosis drugs) during the study. 6) Pregnancy. 7) Smokers.
