Finite Element Analysis of Maxillary Teeth Movement with Time during En Masse Retraction Using Orthodontic Mini-Screw

Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine the placement of an orthodontic mini-screw (OMS) and the length of an anterior retraction hook (ARH) with en masse retraction. Continuous maxillary tooth movement pattern was simulated by finite element analysis (FEA). Materials and methods: Extra...
