Dental Extrusion with Orthodontic Miniscrew Anchorage: A Case Report Describing a Modified Method

الملخص EN

In recent years, the skeletal anchorage through miniscrews has expanded the treatment options in orthodontics (Yamaguchi et al., 2012).

We hereby present a modified method for tooth extrusion for cases where crown-lengthening surgery is contraindicated for aesthetic reasons.

This modified method uses three orthodontic appliances: a mini-implant, an orthodontic wire, and a bracket.

The aim of this case report was to increase the length of the clinical crown of a fractured tooth (tooth 23) by means of an orthodontic extrusion with the modified method of Roth and Diedrich.
