Abstract

Absolute anchorage is an integral part of successful orthodontic treatment and mini implants have been used widely in orthodontic practice to provide absolute anchorage. The primary stability of these implants is influenced by various factors and one among them is insertion torque which represents the resistance offered by bone during implant placement. The purpose of this review is to summarize the influence of insertion torque on the primary stability of mini implants used in orthodontics. Keywords: Implant design; insertion torque; mini implants; primary stability.
