Summary
The investigators hypothesize that brief, daily application of HFA will increase the efficiency of clear aligner treatment by altering PDL metabolism without increasing pain or discomfort. The investigators will divide subjects into 5 groups changing clear aligners at different time intervals with or without HFA application for 5 minutes/day to assess the effect on: time intervals between aligners, cytokine activity, and pain perception.
