Orthodontics highlights

Matheus Melo PITHON

Laser strengthens the repair of the midpalatal suture after RME. Mini-implants and miniplates in the palate are excellent mechanisms for distalization of upper teeth. Mini-implants inserted manually present less stability than the ones inserted with the aid of a motor. Self-ligating brackets do not generate less root resorption. Incisor retraction leads to upper airways narrowing.
