Abstract

In contemporary orthodontic treatment skeletal temporary anchorage devices (TADs) are routinely used as an anchorage reinforcement to provide improved anchorage control with reduced requirement for patient's compliance. For past few decades, various types of TADs have been explored and their clinical application has been expanded. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to present three major types of orthodontic skeletal anchorage devices and discuss their rationale, clinical procedure, insertion site, and potential complications as well as their management.
