Abstract

The midpalatal suture area with thin, keratinized soft tissue and sufficient cortical bone is an optimal site for miniscrew implantation. Even though the midpalatal area has its own anatomical limitations, it can be overcome by bonding extension arms to the miniscrews. This technique also enhances screw stability, thus producing a successful outcome. Among many applications, midpalatal miniscrew implants can be effectively used for intrusion of upper molars with reduced treatment time and enhanced patient comfort.
