Three University of Pennsylvania professors present the results of clinical trials with the new ORLUS screw-type mini-implant for bone-supported anchorage, identify cautions for treatment planning, and outline surgical principles for implantation. The second half of the text addresses mechanotherapy in specific detail with regard to various types of predictable tooth movement. Ample color photographs and case studies illustrate implant placement and each stage of treatment.
