About this trial

The objective is to compare the dento-alveolar therapeutic effects of wearing class II inter-arch traction elastics on aligners versus multi-brackets in an adult population. The principal hypothesis is no significant difference in therapeutic effects of using inter-arch elastics on aligners versus multi-brackets.
