Implants for Orthodontic anchorage - review.
Pak Oral Dental J Jan ;26(1):29-32.

Maintaining anchorage in orthodontics has been a challenge for the orthodontists for centuries. In the recent past several different appliances have been introduced, which are claimed to be the replacement of extra-oral anchorage appliances. But time has shown that they all have failed to provide the anchorage needs. Currently micro implants have been introduced for use in orthodontics. They claim to provide absolute anchorage during orthodontic treatment. The purpose of this article is to review the history and current concepts of implants in orthodontics. This is a review article.
