ABSTRACT:
An orthodontic anchor system 20 for treatment of growth disharmony and malalignment of teeth in which one element is surgically placed in a subperiosteal tunnel on the skeletal bone, allowing biointegration between the onplant bone interface 30 and the bone, after which a palatal bar 24 is attached to the orthodontic anchor system 20, and the palatal bar 24 is also attached to bands 25 around two teeth, holding them non-mobile, permitting the orthodontist to treat the malalignment of the teeth.
