Abstract
Unaltered elastomeric chain continued to move teeth into extraction spaces for 16Â weeks in this sample from both statistically and clinically significant standpoints. There were minimal and statistically insignificant differences in the mean space closure measurements between the paired altered and unaltered sites. The elastomeric chain force at 16Â weeks was less than 100Â g, yet at the same time point, teeth continued to move clinically.
