The use of a Cizeta titanium miniscrew (Cizeta Surgical, Bologna, Italy) for treating an impacted mandibular second molar is presented in this report. The surgical procedure for placing the miniscrew and the subsequent orthodontic management are described, including orthodontic traction with a nickel-titanium closed-coil spring exerting 50 g of force. We concluded that the titanium miniscrew for skeletal anchorage is effective in treating deeply impacted mandibular second molars.
