Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials science
  • Orthodontics
  • Dental implantology

Background:

  • Traditional orthodontic anchorage methods can be insufficient for complex tooth movements.
  • The need for stable, minimally invasive anchorage solutions in orthodontics is growing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and review the efficacy of a novel bone-anchored device for orthodontic anchorage.
  • To evaluate the
  • onplant
  • device's performance in animal models for tooth movement.

Main Methods:

  • A novel disk-shaped device, textured and hydroxylapatite coated, with an internal thread was designed.
  • The device was surgically placed on palatal bone in animal models (dogs and monkeys) for osseointegration.

  • Orthodontic forces were applied to adjacent teeth to assess anchorage and tooth movement.

    • Main Results:

    • A dog study demonstrated successful unilateral tooth movement towards the integrated
    • onplant
    • .
    • A monkey study successfully utilized the device to anchor molars for anterior tooth retraction.

    Conclusions:

    • The novel
    • onplant
    • device provides a viable and effective method for orthodontic anchorage.
    • Osseointegrated devices offer a promising approach for achieving predictable tooth movement in orthodontics.
