Mini Implants can be used as anchorage
The spelling and gramma of this question is not clear. Dental implants are different from mini implants. Yes, existing dental implants can be used but mini implants are popular and sometimes essential, for example, for anchorage control. Open und deep bite cases can be treated more effectively with mini implants, too.
dental implants are a fundamental tool for orthodontists, so much so that the orthodontist plans the necessary space for the placement of implants, the current aesthetic requirements need the close connexion between implantology and orthodontics
IN ORTHODONTICS MAINLY MINI-IMPLANTS ARE USED, THE MOST COMMON USE IS TO REINFORCE ANCHORAGE NEEDS WHERE ADDITIONAL ANCHORAGE IS REQUIRED.
TRADITIONALLY CONSIDERED TO BE DIFFICULT TEETH MOVEMENTS SUCH AS; MOLAR PROTRACTION, MOLAR UPRIGHTING, INTRUSION OF MOLARS, INTRUSION OF ANTERIORS (GUMMY SMILE CASES), ADJUNCTIVE ADULT TREATMENT FOR FACILITATING PROSTHESIS AND COMPREHENSIVE ADULT INTERDISCIPLINARY CASES WITH MISSING NATURAL TEETH ARE NOW ACHIEVABLE DUE TO THE INTRODUCTION OF MINI-IMPLANTS IN ORTHODONTICS.
Orthodontists rely on teeth to provide the anchorage to correct malocclusions. With patients with an intact dentition dental anchorage is usually adequate to facilitate tooth movement. In some partially edentulous patients however, insufficient anchorage may present to correct the malocclusion. In these patients implants can provide additional anchorage. At times, osseointegrated implants can also be used to support restorations after completion of orthodontic therapy if treatment planning is precise. The use of implants for orthodontic anchorage requires an interdisciplinary approach and precise planning to achieve optimal results.
Orthodontic mini-implants are sometimes called "TADs" or "TSA's" and are used to help move teeth in ways that would traditionally not be done without significant increases in time and compliance on the patient's part.
1. Implants can serve as an effective method for reinforcing anchorage.
2. Uprighting of teeth that have tilted into edentulous spaces
1-They can really help to "upright" molars that have collapsed into spaces where teeth have moved such as this situation
2-implant can be used to eliminate the use of headgear.
3- Palatal orthodontic dental implants are mostly used to correct an overbite. When the braces are done, the implant can be easily removed or just left in place
