3 in 1 mechanics (Simultaneous intrusion, retraction & protraction) using Mini-screw Implants.

Abstract

Anchorage in orthodontics is always a challenging situation. Use of mini-screw implants in orthodontics has solved this problem to the large extent. Here is a case of 22 years old male patient with critical anchorage that requires intrusion& retraction of upper incisors and lower left molar protraction which was in end-on relation with upper molar. Case treated successfully using mini-screw implants by simultaneous intrusion, retraction & protraction to achieve class I molar relation and pleasant profile.
