Results: there was increase of gingival after 1 month of treatment in comparison with T0 (P=0.000).Plaque index degree also increased at all periods of assessment and peaked on the first month following appliance placement (P=0.000),while after 6 month  there were no significant differences in comparison with (P=0.905)
