Spider link: a palatal skeletal anchorage system.
Journal of clinical orthodontics : JCO, 2020The Spider* Link is a new palatal skeletal anchorage system that integrates Spider self-ligating miniscrews and prefabricated stain- less steel Power Plates.** This combination can be used to accom- plish a number of tooth movements, including mesialization, distaliza- tion, intrusion, and constriction of the maxillary teeth.

The Use of Miniplate Osteosynthesis for Skeletal Anchorage
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2007The purpose of this study was to explore the use of miniplates as skeletal anchorages for orthodontic treatment and to investigate the stability of miniplates and the causes of failure.Forty-four miniplates were applied in the maxilla or mandible as skeletal anchorages in orthodontic treatment. Two weeks later, a force of 100 to 200 g was applied by an

Anatomic variability in alveolar sites for skeletal anchorage
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 2010Because alveolar bone is used for skeletal anchorage, the variability and reliability of its dimensions are important.Interradicular distances, cortical thicknesses, and buccolingual spaces were measured on computed tomography images of 22 adults (13 maxillary and 9 mandibular).

Midfacial Protraction With Skeletal Anchorage After Pterygomaxillary Separation
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2016The present article reports the treatment of a 7-year-old girl with maxillary hypoplasia associated with multiple tooth agenesis through maxillary protraction with skeletal anchorage and pterygomaxillary separation. Two titanium mini-plates were placed in the lateral region of the nasal cavity and used as anchorage for maxillary protraction with a ...

Orthodontic skeletal anchorage using a palatal external plate
Journal of Orthodontics, 2014We have developed the Anchor-Lock external plate system, which is fitted on the palate for the purpose of orthodontic skeletal anchorage. The aim of this study was to introduce the Anchor-Lock and assess its success rate. The Anchor-Lock is composed of titanium screws of 2·0-mm diameter and a titanium plate of 1·0-mm thickness.

Effect of screw diameter on orthodontic skeletal anchorage
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 2009Many case reports have documented the successful use of titanium miniscrews for orthodontic anchorage. However, the literature lacks a well-controlled study examining the effect of miniscrew diameter on anchorage force resistance. The purpose of this in-vitro study was to compare the force resistance of larger-diameter monocortical miniscrews to ...

Orthodontics in 3 millennia. Chapter 15: Skeletal anchorage
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 2008For many years, orthodontists have searched for a form of anchorage that does not rely on patient cooperation, although the answer already lay in the implants dentists used to replace missing teeth and oral surgeons used to hold bone segments together. Now these divergent lines have come together in the form of stationary anchorage, and titanium is the

Versatility of skeletal anchorage in orthodontics.
World journal of orthodontics, 2008The purpose of this article is to update clinicians on the current concepts and versatile uses and clinical applications of skeletal anchorage in orthodontics. Topics discussed include clinical indications, implant types, surgical sites, biomechanics, treatment time, and treatment outcomes.

Temporary skeletal anchorage devices: The case for miniplates
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 2014he desire to have complete control over anchor-age is no doubt universal among orthodontists.About 100 years after orthodontists first startedusing tooth-borne anchorage for orthodontic treat-ment, temporary skeletal anchorage devices appeared.It was clear that orthodontics would be a completelynew ball game; soon temporary skeletal anchorage de-vices ...

Temporary skeletal anchorage devices: The case for miniscrews
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 20145 According to Newton's Third Law, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Orthodontists must acknowledge this law every time they try to move teeth. Simply stated, every desired tooth movement has the potential to simultaneously create an undesired tooth movement.
