About this trial
The goal of this clinical trials is to compare two diameters, 1.6 and 2 mm, of mini implants both are 12 mm length placed in the infrazygomatic crest region. The main questions it aims to answer are:
which diameter is more suitable for IZC region 1.6 or 2mm in terms of primary stability, secondary stability, pain perception and failure rate.
20 participant will receive 40 mini implant bilaterally (20 in one side of 1.6mm, the other side 20 of 2mm).
participants will be asked to record visual analog scale (VAS) for 3 nights monitored monthly by the investigator.
