Effects of Mini Implant Facilitated Micro-osteoperforations on the Alignment of Mandibular Anterior Crowding

Mini-implant facilitated micro-osteoperforation (MOPs) were placed in the experimental group before placing the initial leveling arch wire. MOPs were placed at three sites i.e., interproximally between mandibular canine and lateral incisor on both sides and between central incisors in the midline on labial aspect of mandible.
