Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Clinically there is a significant difference in arch expansion(parameters - arch length, inter-canine distance, inter-molar distance, palatal volume, tooth long axis,arch perimeter, palatal depth) using a KiyoClear aligner & quad helix.Timepoint: 2 Years

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
More patient cooperation & comfort & cost benefit ratio with KiyoClear aligner than with QuadHelixTimepoint: 2 Years
