Even if miniscrews are mainly used in the active phase, their uses during the contention have been reported for a few years either by installation of miniscrews de novo or by taking advantage of miniscrews inserted during the active phase. The objective of this article is to describe the uses - reported in the literature - of miniscrews during the retention phase. We have conducted a research from the database PubMed with keywords associations.
