Uses of mini-implants, In orthodontics we use mini-implants when we need a very stable anchorage and move teeth around it. Among other uses mini-implants can close spaces between teeth, create space between teeth by making molars go back, correct an open bite relation, or even align a single tooth. Mini-implants can be placed on the maxilla or the mandible bone. Positioning areas can be the palate, the spaces in between teeth, the area bellow the nose or above the chin, and the back of the mouth.
