  • Title: [Dental tours de force 4. The use of a bone anchor for holding upright a tipped molar in the lower jaw].
    Author: De Clerck H, Cornelis M, Timmerman H.
    Journal: Ned Tijdschr Tandheelkd; 2004 Jan; 111(1):10-3. PubMed ID: 14768238.
    Abstract:
    Mini-implants are increasingly used for orthodontic anchorage. Using a mini-implant as anchorage in uprighting a mandibular molar, the need for other orthodontic appliances is minimal. Furthermore, the treatment is not evoking any risk of disturbing the occlusion, since other teeth are not loaded. Depending on a good control of the applied forces and the extrusion of the molar during uprighting, the orthodontic treatment can be simple and not burdening the patient.
