Miniscrews: a simple alternative for complex treatments.

International orthodontics Vol. 12 (4) : 413-30 • Dec 2014

The use of mini-implants has already considerably changed the way we plan and perform a large number of orthodontic treatments to the point where, today, we can envisage taking a fresh look at some of our "classical" treatment options. This article will describe a number of clinical cases drawn from several years' experience of working with miniscrews. We present first a brief flashback and an overview of the different indications for micro-implants followed by four case studies presenting treatments which, without miniscrews, would have been treated by much more aggressive approaches.
