Summary

This observational study aims to evaluate the peri-implant conditions of mini implants placed during orthodontic treatment. Orthodontic mini implants are commonly used as temporary anchorage devices to prevent or reduce unwanted tooth movements during orthodontic treatment. The stability of these implants, both primary and secondary, is crucial for their success. Primary stability refers to the mechanical locking between the implant and bone immediately after placement, while secondary stability is achieved through bone remodeling around the implant over time.

Factors affecting the stability and success of mini implants include the patient's age, gender, cortical bone thickness and density, the site of implant placement, the presence of mobile surrounding tissue, implant dimensions, surface characteristics, and the magnitude and duration of applied orthodontic forces. Peri-implantitis, an inflammation around the implant, is a significant risk factor for implant failure and is influenced by oral hygiene and the quality of surrounding soft tissue.

This study will observe and analyze the peri-implant conditions in patients receiving orthodontic treatment with mini implants, focusing on the incidence of gingival/mucosal inflammation and other factors that may affect implant stability and success.

Peri-implant Condition Evaluation

This intervention involves a detailed clinical evaluation of peri-implant conditions in patients who have received orthodontic mini implants. The assessments include measuring periodontal parameters such as probing depth, bleeding on probing, mucosal redness, plaque index, gingival index, and implant stability. The evaluations are conducted at specified intervals during and after orthodontic anchorage treatment to monitor changes and ensure the health of peri-implant tissues.
