Brief Summary: to record pulpal blood flow (PBF) changes associated with using 0.018-inch Nickel Titanium (NiTi) as the first alignment archwire during fixed orthodontic treatment.
Detailed Description: Forty healthy patients with lower arch mild crowding with less than 2mm contact point displacement at any teeth were included. A split mouth study design was applied. Where each patient received 2 archwire sizes at one time joined in the midline by crimpable hook and applied in the lower arch.

Patients were assigned into one of 2 groups based on archwire sizes used. Group (1); 0.014-inch and 0.018-inch NiTi and Group (2); 0.016-inch and 0.018-inch NiTi. A Laser Doppler Flowmeter was used to measure PBF at different time intervals (T0-T5).
