An evaluation of the effectiveness between stainless steel mini-implants and titanium alloy mini-implants: a randomised clinical trial / Zubaidah Mohammad Zubir
The application of temporary anchorage devices such as mini-implants or mini-screws and mini-plates are gradually accepted in orthodontics as methods to reinforce anchorage. Although titanium alloy (TiA) mini-implants are well-known for their biocompatible behaviour in comparison to stainless steel...
