Maxillary Skeletal Expansion with Monocortical and Bicortical Miniscrew Anchorage: A 3D Finite Element Study

The aim of the present study is to use a 3D finite element analysis to investigate and compare the transverse displacement and stress distribution between stainless steel miniscrews and titanium alloy miniscrews used for monocortical and bicortical anchorage during miniscrew-assisted rapid maxillary...
