Abstract: Maxillary protraction is often applied into the treatment of skeletal Class Ⅲ malocclusion caused by maxillary deficiency, which can effectively guide maxillary to grow forward and improve maxillary dysplasia of patients. Recently, with the development of technology, maxillary protraction with miniscrew implant applied in the treatment of skeletal Class Ⅲ malocclusions has been more widely accepted. This article made a brief review on the research progress of clinical procedures of maxillary protraction with miniscrew implant, including the placement of implant, protraction force and angle, the time of treatment, and the stability of treatment effect.
