The current study was carried out compare the rate of tooth movement during canine retraction between sliding mechanics represented by a NiTi closed coil spring versus sectional mechanics represented by T-loop, using Cone Beam Computer Tomography (CBCT). Materials and Method: Ten patients were selected in a split mouth study design who had a malocclusion that necessitates the extraction of maxillary first premolars and retraction of maxillary canines
