Summary
The purpose of this research is to test which of four clear aligner attachment types is more efficient in extruding (erupting) maxillary lateral incisors vertically into correct position during orthodontic treatment.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria

Exclusion Criteria
- Presence of anterior crossbite
- Any missing teeth in the maxillary arch
