Modified Approach of Force Application in Izc Mini-Implant for Arch Distalization by Elastomeric Chain

Abstract


 
 
 Distalization of whole arch required an appropriate force of application along with sound knowledge of biomechanics. After development of mini-implants it became quite easy because it doesn't need patient compliance which was a problem in olden days with conventional extraoral appliances. Introduction of extra-radicular mini-implant (IZC mini-implant) in orthodontics makes complete arch distalization single step procedure in comparison to intra-radicular mini-implants (conventional TADs) which we have to reposition due to root approximation. This article represents a modified approach of Elastomeric chain application in IZC mini-implant for whole arch distalization.
