Abstract

In orthodontics, we need to solve very diverse clinical situations. Classical situations for which the treatment plan will be, with experience, quite quickly carried out. More complex clinical situations for which we are led to think differently. Sometimes, we must modify a treatment plan along the way because unforeseen factors make our original goals unattainable. Faced with these atypical situations, the choice of anchorage arises with even more acuity. Through the presentation of two atypical treatment cases, we will discuss the development of the treatment plan, the alternatives, and the choice of anchorage. In recent years, the advent of mini screws and other bone anchorages have widened the range of possibilities. If, at first glance, conventional anchorage systems might seem to belong to 20thcentury orthodontics, we believe that they remain an option to consider when establishing even atypical treatment plans, as much for their contribution on the functional and aesthetic level as on the level of the patient journey.
