MINISCREW APPLICATIONS IN ORTHODONTICS

DESCRIPTION

The use oforthodontic miniscrews has revolutionized clinicalpractice by providing stable anchorage and effective solutions for treatingcomplex malocclusions without extractions or orthognathic surgery. «MINISCREWApplications in Orthodontics», written by Dr. Chris Chang and Dr. EugeneRoberts, along with a team of experts, serves as a comprehensive guide to theapplication of temporary anchorage devices (TADs) in modern orthodontics.
Divided into three sections, this book covers everything from fundamentalconcepts to advanced clinical applications. The first section introduces keyprinciples, including site selection, placement protocols, and management ofcomplications to optimize TAD stability. The second section explores their usein combination with self-ligating systems for treating Class II and IIImalocclusions, impacted teeth, and aesthetic corrections. The third sectionfocuses on integrating miniscrews with clear alignersto enhance orthodontic treatment efficiency.
Supported by scientific evidence and an extensive collection of clinical cases,this book offers not only theoretical knowledge but also practical strategiesbased on the authors vast experience. «MINISCREW Applications inOrthodontics» is an essential resource for orthodontists looking to refinetheir techniques and deliver more predictable and stable treatment outcomes fortheir patients.
