Procedures adopted by orthodontists for space closure and anchorage control
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to identify the procedures adopted by Brazilian orthodontists in the following situations: extraction space closure, anchorage control in case of necessary anchorage for group A and frequency of skeletal anchorage use,

A Speedy Yet Simple Tip to Align Imbricated Anterior Teeth [PDF]
Correction of dental crowding can be achieved with several orthodontic procedures like extraction of teeth, proximal stripping etc. In contemporary orthodontic practice, resolution of incisor crowding is most commonly achieved by the use of canine ...

Bacteremia After Orthodontic Miniscrew Insertion
Objectives: Use of miniscrews has become very common in orthodontic treatment of patients. Following tissue manipulation during miniscrew placement, bacteremia may occur, which is important in patients susceptible to infective endocarditis.

Metallographic analysis of the internal microstructure of orthodontic mini-implants
Effective orthodontic anchorage may be obtained by miniimplants inserted into the maxillary bones. However, the risk of miniimplant failure is one of the most important issues, especially the rupture of its structure referred to as fracture, mainly due ...

Influence of cortical thickness on the stability of mini-implants with microthreads
The objective of this study was to assess the influence of cortical thickness and bone density on the insertion torque of a mini-implant (MI) with microthreads. Mini-implants with lengths of 6 and 8 mm in the active part were inserted into synthetic bone

Risk factors associated with the failure of miniscrews - A ten-year cross sectional study
The aims of this study were to identify (1) patient-related factors (sex, age, craniofacial pattern and smoking habit), (2) miniscrews implants (MSI)-related factors (length and diameter) and (3) location-related factors [bone (maxilla or mandible) and ...

Use of miniplates as a method for orthodontic anchorage: a case report
Introduction: Temporary anchorage devices (TADs) have been developed to be used as direct adjuncts in orthodontic treatment and have facilitated treatment of more complex orthodontic cases, including patients with dental impaction.

Skeletal Anchorage Utilising Bone Plates
Skeletal anchorage may be obtained by bone plates in the ramus, to provide the reciprocal forces required in some orthodontic procedures. Distallising of a lower molar in a crowded buccal segment is described in a Case Report.
