Özet
Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate infrazygomatic crest (IZC) miniscrews, which represent a new approach to maxillary posterior tooth intrusion and extra-alveolar skeletal anchorage, using 3-dimensional finite element stress analysis to predict the clinical usability instead of zygoma plates. Methods: Six different models were developed. The direction of the intrusion force was generated parallel to the maxillary first molar, and the posterior bite-block intrusion appliance was connected with 2 steel arches. A zygoma plate, stainless steel (SS)-IZC miniscrew, and a titanium alloy (TiA)-IZC miniscrew were used as anchorage units, and 200 g and 400 g of intrusion forces were applied. The cortical bone, spongious bone, stress values, and displacements in the anchorage unit were examined. The anchored materials were considered nonosseointegrated. Results: Zygoma plates formed low-stress values under 200 g and 400 g of force. The greatest stress and displacement occurred in the first miniscrew that fixed the plate. SS-IZC miniscrews gave lower stress and displacement values than TiA-IZC miniscrews. The most stress was detected inferior to the screw-to-bone contact in IZC miniscrews. Conclusions: Considering the initial value of resorption in cortical bone, it is predicted that SS-IZC and TiA-IZC miniscrews can be used in the clinic under 200 g of intrusion force, although there is not as little stress and displacement as for zygoma plates. Under 400 g of intrusion force, clinical use cannot be recommended because of the critical stress value they generate in the cortical bone.
