Canines Extrude or Incisors Intrude?

Immediate post banding, 14 niti wires bend abrupt at 3s (Fig.1-3).  With arch wire sequence, will the canines extrude or the incisors intrude?  L7s erupt ~7 months post banding.  Bands are placed.  It is difficult to insert 18 ss wire (from 18 niti for 2 appointments (coronavirus pandemic in between)) into the buccal tube of LL7 ~ 4 months later, which may be related to the linguoversion of the tooth (Fig.5 vs. 4).  Interarch retraction is added.
