Er:YAG laser, piezosurgery, and surgical drill for bone decortication during orthodontic mini-implant insertion: primary stability analysis-an animal study [PDF]
It is important to identify factors that affect primary stability of orthodontic mini-implants because it determines the success of treatment. We assessed mini-implant primary stability (initial mechanical engagement with the bone) placed in pig jaws. We

Tooth movement with dental anchorage vs. skeletal anchorage: A systematic review of clinical trials. [PDF]
The aim of this study is to compare the time and movement of orthodontic treatment using dental anchorage and skeletal anchorage in adolescent and adult patients with dental malocclusions. A systematic search was conducted in the Embase, PubMed, Lilacs, Cochrane, Trip, and Scopus databases up to October 2022.

Use of a Kirschner wire for skeletal anchorage
A 17-year-old girl was diagnosed with a Class II malocclusion. Titanium screws were inserted into the maxilla for skeletal anchorage, but they loosened and the mucosa became inflamed during the orthodontic treatment because of the poor quality of the maxillary bone. The insertion of a metal plate failed to improve the anchorage for the same reason.
