Evaluation of Positional Variability in Surface Roughness in Orthodontic Mini‐Implants Using Confocal Microscopy: A Multi‐Manufacturer Comparative Study

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 12, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To compare the surface roughness of orthodontic mini‐implants (OMIs) from seven manufacturers at standardized positions, since positional variability in OMI topography has not been systematically investigated but may influence healing and stability.

Is it possible to re-use mini-implants for orthodontic anchorage? Results of an in vitro study

Materials Research, 2010
The aim of this study was to compare the surface morphology and fracture torque resistance of as-received, sterilized and retrieved mini-implants in order to evaluate the fracture risks of re-using orthodontic mini-implants after sterilization.

Mini-Implants: New Possibilities in Interdisciplinary Treatment Approaches

Case Reports in Dentistry, 2014
The introduction of mini-implants has broadened the range of tooth movements possible by fixed appliance therapy alone. The limits of fixed orthodontic treatment have become more a matter of facial appearance than anchorage.

Valuation of the risk of dental caries: a tool for the comprehensive dental care of the child

Revista Facultad de Odontología Universidad de Antioquia, 2006
Control of anchorage is one of the most important factors for success during orthodontic treatment. Different mechanisms have been used in order to obtain this goal. They range from tooth structures to intraoral and extraoral oppliances.
