Office Placement of Skeletal Anchorage Devices

Atlas of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics of North America, 2013
Skeletal anchorage devices enhance the versatility and expand the range of traditional orthodontic therapy. Rapid and reliable movement of teeth can correct some deformities that were previously only possible with invasive orthognathic surgery. Proper placement of devices and communication with the orthodontist are crucial to successful treatment with ...

Skeletal anchorage systems in orthodontics: absolute anchorage. A dream or reality?

Journal of Orthodontics, 2007
This article examines the concept of orthodontic anchorage and focuses on ways skeletally derived anchorage is gained. A brief history of the different skeletal anchorage systems to date is given. The article gives an emphasis on the use of one particular skeletal anchorage technique--the micro-implant--to assist with orthodontic anchorage and active ...

Spider link: a palatal skeletal anchorage system.

Journal of clinical orthodontics : JCO, 2020
The 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.

A method of skeletal anchorage for maxillary distraction

British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2002
A simple method of providing skeletal anchorage in maxillary distraction is described. The method utilizes cheap and readily available miniplates and provides rigid fixation to the fragment. It can be utilized at multiple levels in high-level osteotomies and situations with an inadequate dentition for anchorage.

The Use of Miniplate Osteosynthesis for Skeletal Anchorage

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2007
The 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

Modified miniplates for orthopaedic skeletal anchorage

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2012
The use of temporary anchorage devices (TADs) in orthodontics has increased over recent years. One type of TAD, a modification of the titanium miniplate frequently used in orthognathic surgery for osteotomy or fracture fixation, has been used successfully as a skeletal anchorage device for various orthodontic applications.

Maxillary Distraction Osteogenesis: A Method with Skeletal Anchorage

Journal Of Craniofacial Surgery, 2000
Maxillary distraction osteogenesis is a challenging technique to treat severe maxillary retrusion. Maxillary advancement by distraction has the advantage to provide new bone in combination with simultaneous expansion of the soft-tissue functional matrix.
