Lower incisor leveling and alignment Inclusion criteria Complete permanent dentition (third molars not included); Moderate mandibular anterior crowding (with little's irregularity index score greater than 4 mm) who required non-extraction approach in the mandibular arch; No tooth size, shape or root abnormalities visible on the patient's radiographic records; No spaces in the mandibular arch; No blocked out tooth that did not allow for placement of the bracket at the

initial bonding appointment; 6. No required management with interproximal stripping, inter-maxillary elastics, open NiTi springs, and removable or extra-oral devices. Canine retraction Eligibility criteria

Age, 15 to 25 years; Class ii division 1 malocclusion with mild or no crowding; No previous orthodontic treatment; No systemic disease that might have affected bone formation or density, such as osteoporosis, hyperparathyroidism, or vitamin d deficiency; Adequate oral hygiene; Probing depth values not exceeding 3 mm across the Entire dentition; Adequate thickness of the attached gingiva (1-2 mm); No radiographic evidence of bone loss -
