The aim of this study is to the evaluate the stability of the amount of healthy tooth structure exposed after laser versus conventional technique of fiberotomy during orthodontic extrusion.
Parallel groups, two arm, superiority Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial, with 1:1 allocation. PICO: Population: patients with endodontically treated teeth and short clinical crown that require crown lengthening in the esthetic zone Intervention: laser fiberotomy with orthodontic extrusion Control: conventional fiberotomy using blade with orthodontic extrusion Outcomes: Primary outcome: Stability of the mount of healthy tooth structure exposed. Secondary outcomes: * Stability of gingival Margin reference. * Stability of the alveolar bone. * Rate of tooth extrusion. * Sulcus depth. * Pain Time: 8 weeks after retention

The amount of tooth that need to be extruded will be measured Bonding brackets slot 0,022"x0.028" Roth prescription on piggyback for the tooth with (0.016". x 0.022 ") stainless steel main arch wire and 0.0014" nickel titanium auxiliary. • Fiberotomy After 2 days of bonding, local anaesthetic solution will be administrated. The depth of the fibrotomy should be equal to the amount of tooth that need to be extruded. supracrustal fibrotomy will be performed using 15 c blade (Carvalho, Bauer et al. 2006)
* The amount of tooth that need to be extruded will be measured * Bonding brackets slot 0,022"x0.028" Roth prescription * piggyback for the tooth with (0.016". x 0.022 ") stainless steel main arch wire and 0.0014" nickel titanium auxiliary. • Fiberotomy * After 2 days of bonding, local anaesthetic solution will be administrated. * The depth of the fibrotomy should be equal to the amount of tooth that need to be extruded. * A diode laser of 980 nm wavelength will be used The laser tip will be inserted, and incision will be extended around tooth circumference with the system configured to a continuous wave with the movement of the laser tip in an up and down stroking movement The laser tip will be moved in a circumferential manner taking care that all the fibers are lysed.

RECRUITINGStability of amount of healthy tooth structure exposed
Amount of healthy tooth structure exposed: This is measured from the 6 guide marks in the acrylic stent around the extruded teeth to the healthy tooth structure using UNC periodontal probe in millimeters.
Time frame: 8 weeks after retention.
Stability of gingival Margin
This is measured from the 6 guide marks in the acrylic stent around the extruded teeth to the gingival margin using UNC periodontal probe in millimeters.
Time frame: 8 weeks after retention.
Stability of the alveolar bone
This is measured from the 6 guide marks in the acrylic stent around the extruded teeth to the top of the alveolar crest using UNC periodontal probe in millimeters. This is done after administration of local anesthesia by infiltration around the tooth
Time frame: 8 weeks after retention.
Rate of tooth extrusion
This is measured by calculating the average tooth extrusion per week by dividing the amount of healthy tooth structure exposed on the number of weeks.
Time frame: 8 weeks after retention.
Sulcus depth
The distance from gingival margin to the base of the sulcus in millimetres.
Time frame: 8 weeks after retention.
Post operative pain
VAS scale
Time frame: 8 weeks after retention.
