CBCT axial section provides the most relevant information as to where to place mini implants (Fig.3,4). It appears that the buccal (B) proximal space between #2 and 3 is the narrowest (Fig.4: 0.7 mm), where placement should be avoided.
Two of 1.6x6 mm and one of 1.6x8 mm implants are partially placed buccally and palatally (P), respectively.
