Assessment of clinical success of mini screw implant for orthodontic treatment

Abstract

Abstract
Background: This study was carried out for the assessment of clinical success of mini
screw implant for orthodontic treatment.
Material and methods: In this study, 50 patients were enrolled for mini-screw
implantation as part of their orthodontic therapy. Comprehensive demographic information
of all the patients was acquired. A comprehensive clinical examination was conducted. The
surgical procedures were performed under optimal aseptic circumstances. The patients
were summoned for a follow-up and the success rate was evaluated. The results were
examined using the SPSS program. The chi-square test was employed to assess the
statistical significance.
Results:This study enrolled a total of 50 patients. The patients' average age was 19 years.
The mini-screw implant procedure affected the right side in 61% of patients. Males made
up 78% of the patient population and females 22%. In 67% of the cases, the maxillary arch
was affected. The current study found that mini-screw implants had a 97% clinical success
rate. When comparing the success rate with the failure rate, significant findings were found.
Conclusion:A high success rate is often associated with orthodontic treatments that include
miniscrew implants.
