Effects of Drilling Technology on Mini-Implant Primary Stability: A Comparison of the Mechanical Drilling and Femtosecond Laser Ablation
Objectives: Primary stability is a fundamental prerequisite in predicting the prognosis of a mini-implant (MI) as a skeletal anchorage. This study aims to evaluate the influence of implant site preparation technology on the primary stability of MI. Methods: A total of 108 bovine cortical bone sample...
