Skeletal Anchorage using Mini-implants in the Maxillary Tuberosity Region
نویسنده
چکیده
Anchorage conservation has always been a challenge in orthodontics especially in cases requiring group movement of teeth. The drawbacks of conventional anchorage conservation methods like headgears and intermaxillary elastics have been overcome with the advent of skeletal anchorage. Mini-implants which have been proved successful in several intraoral locations for anchorage, can also be successfully placed in the maxillary tuberosity region. However, this site is not commonly used due to the fact that the density of bone in this region is comparably low. But with proper case selection and application of sound biomechanical principles, successful treatment results can be achieved with mini-implants placed in this location.

متن کاملUse of palatally inserted mini-screw for upper molar distalization: A case series
Abstract Reports have shown that molars can be distalized successfully with virtually no orthodontic anchorage loss with an intraosseous anchorage, even with fully erupted second molars. The purpose of this study was evaluating the effects of mini-screws as skeletal anchorage for upper molar distalization. In this case series, three patients needing maxillary first molar distalization,...
متن کاملMaxillary protraction with miniplates providing skeletal anchorage in a growing Class III patient.
Maxillary protraction headgear has been used in the treatment of Class III malocclusion with maxillary deficiency. However, loss of dental anchorage has been reported with tooth-borne anchorage such as lingual arches and expansion devices. This side effect can be minimized with skeletal anchorage devices such as implants, onplants, mini-implants, and miniplates. The use of miniplates for maxill...
