Stability of Mini Implants in the Periodontum during Orthodontic Treatment
Abstract:In orthodontic treatment, forces are used to perform tooth movements depending on the magnitude, direction and duration, generating cellular and vascular responses in the periodontium. Orthodontic movement involves inflammatory responses resulting from this damage repair process. With the introduction of mini implants in orthodontic treatment, it allows us to obtain better control over the patient's movements by decreasing the load on the teeth such as in case of retraction, intrusions of a tooth or sector and… Show more
