Volume 57 : Number 9 : Page 522 : Sep 2023
Retromolar miniscrews are used to anchor en masse mandibular distalization in hyperdivergent Class III treatment. The lower third molars are extracted to provide space for the miniscrews and the distal movement, while various measures are taken to prevent anterior torque loss.

Step-By-Step Traction of a Palatally Impacted Canine
Volume 51 : Number 6 : Page 335 : Jun 2017
Two-phase treatment of a mixed-dentition patient with a palatally impacted canine is described and illustrated. After surgical exposure of the canine, the authors perform distal traction with miniscrew anchorage to relieve the obstruction caused by the adjacent lateral incisor. Under the guidance of cone-beam computed tomography, the canine is then moved into appropriate position for forced eruption into the arch.

The Biocreative Strategy Part 4: Molar Distalization in Nonextraction Treatment
Volume 52 : Number 9 : Page 462 : Sep 2018
In Biocreative mechanics, the force application from C-implants and elastics for full-arch distalization begins as soon as brackets are bonded. Two direct-pushing methods, using either the head or neck of the miniscrew, are presented by Drs. Chung, Kim, Choo, Kim, and Nelson.

Treatment of Labially Impacted Upper Central Incisors
Volume 49 : Number 11 : Page 701 : Nov 2015
When the parents or the general dentist notices erupted upper lateral incisors and only one erupted central incisor in an 8-to-10-year-old child, it raises the possibility of an impacted upper central incisor - a significant esthetic concern. Treatment of such a patient in the mixed dentition requires an understanding of the eruption pattern of the permanent teeth. If the single central incisor had erupted six months previously, for example, or the lateral incisors had erupted before the central incisor, it would indicate a developmental problem requiring further investigation.

A Simple Technique for Molar Uprighting
Volume 31 : Number 2 : Page 119 : Feb 1997
Loss of a first permanent mandibular molar should be immediately addressed by prosthetic replacement or orthodontic space closure. Otherwise, the second and third molars will incline and rotate mesiol...

Treatment of Snoring and Sleep Apnea with a Tongue Rehabilitation Device
Volume 54 : Number 7 : Page 400 : Jul 2020
Orthodontists are increasingly involved in identifying obstructive sleep apnea and treating it with intraoral devices. Unlike mandibular advancers, this Tongue Rehabilitator works by raising the tongue and directing it to a more physiological position, thus opening the posterior airway.

Volume 57 : Number 12 : Page 735 : Dec 2023
In this protocol from Dr. Carlucci and colleagues, a hybrid miniscrew-supported rapid palatal expander with protraction facemask hooks is prescribed to correct maxillary retrusion during late adolescence, followed by an orthodontic phase with fixed appliances and Class III elastics.
