24- Total Arch Distalization with IZC Miniscrews

Show notes

Explore the use of infrasagomatic crest miniscrews for class II malocclusion treatment:

• Technique: Total arch maxillary distalization without extractions
• Study: 25 adolescents, ICC miniscrews placed between upper molars
• Results: Molars moved 4mm distally, Incisors retracted 5mm, Overjet and overbite reduced
• Benefits: Comparable to palatal plates without surgery
• Considerations: Case selection crucial for success
• Best for: Patients with normal or low mandibular plane angles

The study suggests ICC miniscrews are efficient for sagittal correction, minimizing patient cooperation.
