Predrilling of the implant site: Is it necessary for orthodontic mini-implants?
Abstract
Mini-implants are becoming increasingly popular in orthodontic practice. However, there is still controversy about the need for implant-site preparation. This article reviews the current literature to answer the question: is predrilling is necessary for orthodontic mini-implants?
