Finite element analysis of the impact of different traction anchorage locations on maxillary molar distalization with clear aligners and implant screws
The results suggest that implant screws placed between the first and second molars, combined with traction points at the first premolar using clear aligners, offer superior molar distalization efficiency and improved control over incisor anchorage during maxillary molar distalization.
