Summary

The use of miniscrew implants as an anchorage device in orthodontics has gained a widespread acceptance in recent years. There prevailed use has been attributed to its ease in insertion and removal at a relatively low cost with no need to wait for a long time between miniscrew insertion and force application. In this regard; clinical studies have suggested that miniscrew implants may provide stable anchorage during the orthodontic treatment without requiring patient cooperation. These studies proved many successful applications in orthodontics involving; retraction of anterior teeth, correction of open bites, distalization, mesialization, and intrusion of teeth
