Abstract

Orthodontists are used for controlling and optimizing anchorage utilising teeth and appliances, both intraoral and extraoral. These approaches have limitations since it is frequently challenging to get outcomes that match our treatment goals. Numerous case reports were published in the orthodontic literature demonstrating the potential for overcoming anchorage limitations through the use of Temporary Anchorage Devices, which are biocompatible devices anchored to bone for the purpose of moving teeth without the need of reactive unit , preventing anchor loss and being removed following its intended use . Skeletal anchorage in orthodontics is a potential concept, yet many questions remain unanswered . The following article includes an overview of the use of implants for orthodontic anchorage as well as information on the evolution of skeletal anchorage.
