Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Inclusion criteria: 1- all patients had the same vertical growth pattern-normal pattern- which was verified by evaluating Jaraback index and sum of Bjork on their lateral cephalometric images (Jaraback index 65-70 % and sum of Bjork 390°-400°). 2- There was no missing tooth in the lower arch. 3- Based on treatment plane, every patient need mandibular second premolar extraction on both sides to treat open bite dentally or correct molar relationship. 4- All patients signed the informed contest to participate in this study. Patients with tooth missing, horizontal growth pattern and any previous second premolar extraction were excluded.
