Twenty-Two adult Patients who indicated for bilateral maxillary first premolar extraction will be randomly assigned into two equal group.
Group1: Elastomeric chains will be used on the right side, and NiTi closed-coil springs will be used on the left side. Group2: NiTi closed-coil springs will be used on the right side, Elastomeric chains will be used on the left side.
