The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of pitch distance on the primary stability (PS) of orthodontic mini-implants (MIs) in artificial bone. Twenty experimental MIs were allocated to two groups, according to their geometric design: G1(30oX 0.6 mm) and G2(45o X 0.8 mm), and inserted into a...
