Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary outcome to be measured will be difference in the amount of intrusion achieved at the end of retraction in the two groups in the Lateral Cephalogram. Secondary outcome to be observed will be assessment of extent of root resorption following the end of retraction using RVG.Timepoint: T1-BEFORE TRETMENT T2- AFTER SPACE CLOSURE
