Orthodontic Mini-implant in Romania:
temporary anchorage planning planned before travel.
Orthodontic mini-implants can provide temporary anchorage for selected tooth movements. They are small screws used during orthodontic treatment, not permanent tooth replacement implants.
Anchorage can decide whether orthodontic movement is predictable
Some orthodontic cases need extra anchorage to move teeth without unwanted side effects.
Mini-implants are useful only when bone, hygiene and mechanics are suitable.
Travelling patients need to understand that this is part of active orthodontic treatment and requires monitoring.
