Assessment of Anatomical Conditions for the Installation of Miniscrews «bioray A1» in the Area of the Mandibular Buccal Shelf

Abstract

Currently, miniscrews installed parallel to the roots are widely used in the practice of orthodontic treatment. When planning the placement of miniimplants, it is necessary to evaluate the anatomical factors that affect the stability of the miniscrew in the bone. For the analysis, we selected the zone of the external oblique line, where the thickness of bone tissue in the area of the first and second molars was estimated in the vertical and horizontal planes. As a result of the study, it was found that the area of the distal surface of the distal root of the second molar had the greatest thickness of bone tissue. An increase in the vestibular-oral thickness was also observed in the distal direction.
