Management of reactive tissue overgrowth due to the placement of orthodontic miniscrew implant: A case series

Miniscrews have been introduced in orthodontic treatment planning for the correction of severe dental and skeletal discrepancies by predictable anchorage control. However, as with other techniques, case selection should be based on thorough evaluation of the patient by factoring in several variables during miniscrew placement. This paper presents three cases of reactive overgrowth associated with miniscrew placement and the subsequent treatment protocol. highlights a few rare cases of pyogenic granuloma and soft-tissue overgrowth associated with faulty placement of miniscrew implant placement and their treatment.
