Area of Science:

Orthodontics
Dental Implantology

Background:

Skeletal Class III malocclusion presents significant challenges in nonsurgical management, especially for adolescent or noncompliant patients.
Temporary anchorage devices (TADs) have advanced dentoalveolar compensation capabilities by offering reliable skeletal anchorage for posterior tooth distalization.

Keywords:

class iii indirect anchorage mechanics microimplant molar distalization
