Abstract
Absolute anchorage provided by miniscrew play important role in success of treatment. Failure of anchorage unit leads to compromised treatment outcome. In this case report, surgical management of fractured miniscrew in the cortical bone between second premolar and first molar in right upper quadrant is reported. Introduction Absolute anchorage is often required for an orthodontist to improve the clinical outcome and optimize the efficiency and effectiveness of treatment mechanism. Traditionally ankylosed tooth /dental implant provide the absolute anchorage. TAD’s or orthodontic miniscrews provide the absolute anchorage. Their usage has increased a lot due to the following: simple use, cost effective, predictable and successful clinical tool in orthodontist’s armamentarium. Success rate vary between 83.8%.1 Failure of miniscrew is attributed to many factors such as bone density, diameter of implant, systemic condition, poor oral hygiene, insertion technique etc. To reduce the risk of implant failure various measures have to be considered.
