Methods for Assessing Orthodontic Mini Implant Stability

Received Date:12 August 2024, Accepted Date:09 October 2024, Published Date:17 December 2024

Abstract

Assessing the stability of orthodontic mini implants (MI) is critical for ensuring successful treatment outcomes. This abstract reviews, various methods employed to measure MI stability in orthodontics. Invasive methods include histologic & histomorphometry technique, cutting torque resistance analysis, removal torque analysis and insertion torque analysis. Non-invasive modalities such as surgeon’s perception, radiographic examination, finite element analysis, percussion test, pulsed oscillation waveform, Periotest and Resonance Frequency Analysis. Each method contributes uniquely to the assessment of MI stability, aiding orthodontists in making informed decisions regarding treatment planning and anchorage management. Understanding the strengths and limitations of these measurement methods enhances their clinical utility and ensures optimal treatment outcomes in orthodontic practice.
