This clinical trial goal is to evaluate the difference in masticatory activities in adult patients treated with clear aligners compared to conventional fixed appliances treatment. The aim of this study is to measure the changes of the activity of the anterior temporalis and masseter muscles in different treatment modality. The activity of the muscles will be evaluated and measured using the surface electromyography (sEMG) BioRadio device before and after the beginning of each treatment modality.

Changes of muscular activity in clear aligners vs conventional fixed orthodontic therapies at 3 months using the BioRadio sEMG device.
Timeframe: The muscle activity with the BioRadio device will be recorded as follows: T0: Before start of orthodontic treatment, T1: One month after start of orthodontic treatment,T2: Three months after the start of orthodontic treatment.
