Skeletal anchorage is a provenance of stationary anchorage to orthodontic forces which has made most convoluted tooth movements uncomplicated. Skeletal Anchorage includes all the devices fixed to the bone to increase the anchorage for orthodontic purposes. Skeletal orthodontic anchorage has mainly changed the possibilities and paradigms in orthodontic treatment. It obviates the need for significant patient compliance. Skeletal anchorage although it is still a relatively new concept, it provides a promise for the future of orthodontic treatment. It allows for interdisciplinary collaboration in expanding the patient’s and provider’s repertoire of treatment options to allow a satisfactory end point of treatment as determined by the patient. Skeletal anchorage is not a replacement for other proven anchorage systems. Skeletal anchorage should serve merely to expand the orthodontic services we can offer our patients.
