Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mandibular second molar protraction speed. Timepoint: 6 months after molar protraction. Method of measurement: Comparison of the distance of the maximum convexity of the second molar and second premolar teeth in the initial and final opg photos.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The change of mandibular second molar angle with the mandibular border (in OPG images) before and after treatment. Timepoint: 6 months after protraction. Method of measurement: OPG photos prepared.;Changes in rotation relative to the mandibular occlusion line (in study models) before and after treatment. Timepoint: 6 months after protraction. Method of measurement: OPG photos prepared.;The amount of bone and its density in the mesial second molar (in CBCT images) before and after treatment. Timepoint: 6 months after protraction. Method of measurement: CBCT photos prepared.
