Administration of the Solution at eexperimental side: One milliliter of was injected into the buccal vestibule at the level of the distal margin of the root of the canine. One milliliter of (ONE ALPHA 2 MCG / ML 10 AMP 0.5 ML Leo Pharmaceutical products Ballerup - Denmark. Imported by: Egyptian Company for Drug Trading) was injected four times during treatment on the the beginning (T0), 4 weeks (T1), 8 weeks (T2), and 12 weeks (T3) of canine retraction on both sides according to Varughese, et al. " Participants were evaluated from the beginning (T0), 4 weeks (T1), 8 weeks (T2), and 12 weeks (T3) of canine distalization. At these appointments, impressions were made to obtain the study models. Multi-slice spiral computed tomography scans were taken at T0 and T3 to measure the changes in bone density following canine distalization. The primary outcome was to evaluate the rate and total amount of canine distalization as well as anchorage loss in the maxillary arch. All study measurements
