Temporary Anchorage Device In Orthodontics

Contemporary orthodontic treatment requires a short treatment time and minimum patient co-operation while offering the maximum treatment efficiency. Implants help the Orthodontist to overcome the challenge of unwanted reciprocal tooth movement. The orthodontic treatment using this miniscrew anchorage system is not only more effective, but offers a variety of treatment alternatives in challenging cases where traditional mechanics cannot be used. The advantages of the miniscrews over the conventional orthodontic anchorage are, optimal use of traction forces, placement of screws at most intraoral sites, short treatment time with no need to prepare dental anchorage, patient comfort and low cost.
