Fully customized placement of orthodontic miniplates: a novel clinical technique

The initial stability and survival rate of orthodontic mini-implants are highly dependent on the amount of cortical bone at their insertion site.

Summary:The initial stability and survival rate of orthodontic mini-implants are highly dependent on the amount of cortical bone at their insertion site. In areas with limited bone availability, mini-plates are preferred to provide effective skeletal anchorage.
