[2025-09-25T12:57:23.954031] [PI reasoning] **Evaluating miniscrew placement factors**

I found an article from 2015 with the conclusion suggesting that the safest areas for miniscrew placement are between specific teeth, regardless of insertion angle. The question is whether bone thickness and inter-radicular space affect placement in the posterior mandibular area. The paper indicates that those variables do influence safe areas for miniscrews, implying that they matter. So, I think it leads me to confidently answer "yes" to the question.
