Use of orthodontic miniscrews to correct the distal malocclusion

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Distal malocclusion is one of the most common malocclusion pathologies. The use of orthodontic microimplants for support is becoming one of the most common devices that could be fixed in different zones.

AIM: This study aimed to analyze modern literature sources covering the use of various types of microimplants and factors that affect their stability in the treatment of distal dentition.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: Results of domestic and foreign publications extracted from eLibrary and PubMed were analyzed. Thirty-five literary sources published no more than 8 years were studied.

RESULTS: Data on the structural features of the upper jaw, dependence of implant stability on its design, and options for correcting distal malocclusion using microimplants were collected and analyzed.

CONCLUSION: The analyzed articles describe individual clinical cases of treatment of anomalies in individuals with malocclusion; however, no systematic approach and proven treatment method using orthodontic microimplants in various zones of the upper jaw have been established. Certain pressing questions remain: what is the optimal material for its manufacture, microimplant design, and criteria in determining the most suitable anatomical structures of the upper jaw for microimplant fixation.
