Analysis of Insertion Torque of Orthodontic Mini-Implants Depending on the System and the Morphological Substrate.
Article in Journal of functional biomaterials, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Orthodontic mini-implants are well-known anchorage devices and stand out as a particularly effective tool for ensuring maximum anchorage without relying on patient compliance. Therefore, it is necessary to understand what levels of torque strains remain in the physiological limits and can guarantee the stability of these mini-implants. The aim of this study was to investigate and measure the initial and final torque values of orthodontic mini-implants when placed perpendicular to the maxillary and mandibular bone surfaces. In our study, orthodontic mini-implants from different companies were inserted perpendicularly using different insertion torques on the plate of both maxillary and mandibular bones from pig specimens. The torque values were then analyzed. The results of this study highlight the need for continued research to analyze the ideal insertion torque of different types of mini-implants depending on the insertion area, in order to achieve clinical success of mini-implants.
