Palatal implant anchorage reinforcement of posterior teeth: A prospective study

Midpalatal implants vs headgear for orthodontic anchorage—a randomized clinical trial: Cephalometric results

“…Wehrbein et al 1999 7 reported a one hundred percent success rate in a prospective trial involving the Straumann palatal implant placed in nine patients. Bernhart et al 20 reported the results of a prospective study of orthodontic treatment carried out with palatal implant support in 21, mainly adult patients.…”

“…There are various different types of implant used for orthodontic anchorage including bone screws 5 , bone plates 6 and palatal implants 7 . They are relatively simple to place; however complications include soft or hard tissue infection and failure of the implant.…”

Clinical Study of Temporary Anchorage Devices for Orthodontic Treatment

“…Turley et al 38) and Roberts et al 29) reported conventional osseointegrated implants. Costa et al 10) and Freudenthaler et al 14) reported mini-and micro-implants and Wehrbein et al [41][42][43] reported palatal implants. Screw-type miniand micro-implants offer the advantage of lower cost, simpler surgical placement and higher versatility than plate-type implants.…”

Orthodontic Care of Cleidocranial Dysplasia Patients

“…Dental implants can be placed in the retromolar or palatal region to tract unerupted teeth in the mandibular and maxillary posterior region, respectively. 37,41 In cases with several impacted permanent teeth in the alveolar bone area, dental implants are indicated instead of screws. The implants are combined with orthodontic appliances such as lingual arches to serve as indirect anchorage units.…”
