Factors effecting primary stability of mini-implants in vitro

Objectives: Mini-implants (MIs) are now routinely used in orthodontic treatments; however, compared to conventional implants, MIs suffer higher failure. Achieving primary stability (PS) appears to be the most important factor predicting success of MIs. Factors such as implant diameter, length, an...
