Abstract
ABSTRACTMicroimplants have ushered in the concept of absolute anchorage by intraoral means with the added benefit of being completely operator dependent. These factors ensure efficient anchorage control. However, these benefits come at the cost of precise placement considering the proximity of anatomically significant structures. It is of utmost importance to avoid damage to roots in case of interradicular placement. In order to overcome this difficulty, the following case report describes an innovative grid-guide template with an anti-inflammatory adhesive backing for accurate and easy microimplant placement. The assembly consists of a stainless steel grid mesh stuck on a micropore surgical tape with trioplast dental paste on the tissue-facing surface. It is an accurate, efficient, economical, and easy method of microimplant placement.How to cite this articleJadhav BS, Patni V, Pawar P.
