Conservation of anchorage in totality has been perpetual downside to traditional orthodontist. For a long time, orthodontist have struggled to attain efficient control of anchorage and perpetually dreamt of a tool which might give absolute anchorage. This dream has come true with the advent of Skeletal Anchorage System. Orthodontic implants have burst onto the clinical orthodontic scene so as to help the orthodontist to control various tooth movements. The primary advantage over several other forms of anchorage is that implants give skeletal anchorage, that is beyond any doubt more predictable and stable than methods requiring patient compliance. This book provides a comprehensive overview of all the different types of implants used in orthodontics and also the factors which may compromise mini-implant success which is fundamental for their clinical application. Proper planning, proper insertion, achieving primary stability, proper orthodontic loading, as well as absence of inflammation and mobility, for the whole-loading time guarantee success.
