Table 3 Sagittal tooth movement: patients in whom orthodontic sagittal tooth movement was performed (n = 48), subdivided into mesialization, distalization and simultaneous mesialization and distalization of different teeth; in total and in relation to the whole sample; in absolute and relative frequencies
From: One palatal implant for skeletal anchorage – frequency and range of indications
