Abstract:
The idea of absolute anchorage has always been an elusive goal for clinicians. Orthodontic mini-implants or temporary anchorage devices allow tooth movements previously thought to be impossible or difficult.

The following case report describes successful management of fractured orthodontic mini-implant.
