Summary Background Temporary anchorage devices (TADs) offer the clinician an
immediate temporary source of skeletal anchorage for a range of orthodontic interventions. It …

Background The purpose of this study was to evaluate the stress patterns produced in mini-
implant and alveolar bone, for various implant dimensions, under different directions of …

Ridge preservation is universally acknowledged as the conventional method for the post-
extraction healing yet there are no standard materials for the ideal healing outcome. Herein …

Introduction The primary purposes of this study were to evaluate how locally delivered
zoledronate affects the longitudinal stability of miniscrew implants (MSIs) and the healing of …

Osteoporosis has increasingly become a major public health concern because of its
associated heightened risk of bone fragility and fractures. In order to avoid the adverse risk …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of mini-screw placement on the alveolar
ridge using a split-mouth design. Twelve beagles underwent bilateral extraction of their …

ABSTRACT Introduction: Shorter miniscrew implants (MSIs) are needed to make
orthodontics more effective and efficient. Objective: To evaluate the stability, insertion torque …

Introduction The purposes of this study were to longitudinally evaluate the effects of pilot
holes on miniscrew implant (MSI) stability and to determine whether the effects can be …

This study investigated the effect of immediate force on bone adaptations surrounding
miniscrew implants. Ten miniscrew implants were placed on the mandibles in three beagle …

Introduction In this randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial, we investigated the effect of
noninvasive extracorporeal shock waves on the stability of temporary anchorage devices …
