All mini-implants were 8 mm in length. A tangential load of 2N was applied to the mini-implant in bone under hydration for 2 hours. Migration was assessed as the change in displacement during initial loading followed by 2 hours constant loading. Mean and standard deviation (SD) of bone mineral density (BMD) were obtained using histogram of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) attenuation values surrounding the mini-implant hole. The cortical thickness along with the miniscrew hole was also measured using the CBCT image. Results The mini-implant diameters did not have an effect on determining the primary stability and migration of mini-implant (p=0.147). Positive correlations of migration with SD and COV were found (p=0.073). These correlations were independent of the mini-implant diameters (ANCOVA, p=0.11).
