Biomaterials undergo a transformative journey, from their origin as renewable resources to
the manufacturing plants where they are processed and stored, until they fulfill their intended …

Miniscrews are devices that allow for absolute skeletal anchorage. However, their use has a
higher failure rate (10–30%) than dental implants (10%). To overcome these flaws, chemical …

PurposeThe aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of insertion
andsterilization on primary stability and to examine the mechanical and …

Temporary anchorage devices (TADs) have been introduced into orthodontic clinical
practice in order to allow tooth movements while avoiding strain on adjacent teeth …

Introduction During treatment, some patients may need to change the location of mini-
implants (MIs). This study investigated the stability of MIs relocated to another position in the …

Orthodontic mini-implants use has been increased. The purpose of this review was to
analyze the factors related to the clinical application of orthodontic mini-implants. For the …

Background: Titanium miniscrews are used at an ever-increasing rate to provide orthodontic
anchorage. The aim of this study was to evaluate the mechanical performance of miniscrews …

Orthodontic Mini-Implants have a high success rate, but it is crucial to assess the load that
they bear in order to maintain their primary stability. Increasing the diameter can improve this …

Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the influence of two recycling methods on the
mechanical and surface characteristics of orthodontic mini-screws. Methods: Thirty-six …

Objectives To compare the primary stability of miniscrews after repeated cycles of insertion
through insertion torque (IT) measurements and resonance frequency analysis (RFA) …
