Summary
This study looked at 95 patients' 3D dental scans to measure bone thickness in a specific area of the upper jaw, called the infrazygomatic crest. The goal was to help orthodontists choose the right size of miniscrews and insert them at the correct angle, avoiding damage to nearby tooth roots. The findings provide a practical guide for safer and more effective miniscrew placement during orthodontic treatment.
