The purpose of this study was to quantify the treatment effects of distalization of the maxillary and mandibular molars using microscrew implants. The success rate and clinical considerations in the use of the microscrew implants were also evaluated. Thirteen patients who had undergone distalization of the posterior teeth using forces applied against microscrew implants were selected. Among them, 11 patients had mandibular microscrew implants and four patients had maxillary implants, including two patients who had both maxillary and mandibular ones at the same time. The maxillary first premolar and first molars showed significant distal movement, with no significant distal movement of the anterior teeth. The mandibular first premolar and first and second molars showed significant distal movement, but no significant movement of the mandibular incisor was observed. The microscrew implant success rate was 90% over a mean application period of 12.3 +/- 5.7 months. The results might support the use of the microscrew implants as an anchorage for group distal movement of the teeth.
