Expression of circulating cell-free nucleic acids around miniscrew implant during orthodontic tooth movement —a prospective study

ConclusionscfNA levels in PMICF showed an upward trend 24  h after MSI insertion and 24 h after orthodontic loading. The expression of cfNA was more in cases with failed MSIs. Hence, the cfNAs can be considered as a prognostic biomarker of MSI stability.
