Effects of cortical bone thickness and trabecular bone density on primary stability of orthodontic mini-implants
Background/purpose: Mini-implant screws are now routinely used as anchorage devices in orthodontic treatments. This study used synthetic bone models to investigate how the primary stability of an orthodontic mini-implant (OMI) as measured by resonance frequency (RF) is affected by varying cortical b...
