Response - NO
Brief Summary   Patients recommended with first premolar extractions in either jaw for orthodontic treatment will be enrolled in a split-mouth study. Twelve patients meeting the inclusion criteria will participate with their consent. The patients’ jaw quadrants will be divided into test and control groups. In the control group, canine retraction will be performed using only friction mechanics. However, in the test group, laser therapy will be administered in addition to friction mechanics. Laser therapy will be provided every four weeks for a three-month period. The study will last three months for each patient to compare the rate of tooth movement between the control and test sides. To measure the rate of canine retraction, intraoral records will be taken with an intraoral scanner.
