Abstract
The simulations in this study suggest that group intrusion of all 6 mandibular anterior teeth might be achieved by applying distointrusive vectors. Inserting a pair of miniscrews distal to the canine roots, 1 screw per side, and directing 4 loading points on the archwire generates uniform periodontal stress distribution and minimum buccolingual displacements. Local conditions, such as narrow bone width and attached gingiva level, play significant roles in the clinical viability of the proposed virtual scenarios.
