Mapping optimal orthodontic implant sites in the palate using cone-beam computed tomography
In general, areas with a high bone density tended to have thin soft tissue coronally, thus the preferred implant site tends to be more anterior to the P4-5 plane and closer to 60°-90°. Considering individual variances, mapping of the recommended regions for palatal mini-implants is suggested.
