Abstract:
This present study has the purpose of determining how surface topography of implants affects the initial stability of miniscrew implants (MSIs). Electronic databases like PubMed Central, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library, as well as reference lists, were thoroughly searched up until September 2022. Clinical trials involving individuals who got anchorage through mini-implants, along with information on categories of mini-implants dimension, shape, thread design, and insertion site, were required as part of the eligibility criteria. Primary and secondary stability were also assessed. We carried out selection process for the study, extraction of data, quality assessment, and a meta-analysis. The qualitative synthesis included 10 papers: three randomized, four prospective, and four retrospective clinical investigations. The results of this meta-analysis demonstrate that the clinical state of MIs is controlled by their geometrical surface qualities, which are also influenced by their shape and thread design. According to the evidence this meta-analysis produced, this circumstance exists. The duration of the follow-up period and MI success rates did not correlate with one another.
