We aimed to elucidate stress distribution in miniscrews and the surrounding bone when miniscrews inserted at different depths were implanted vertically or obliquely. The distributions of the equivalent stress on the screw surface and the minimum principal stress in the surrounding bone were calculated using finite element models. When the miniscrews were inserted vertically and obliquely, screw head displacement, greatest equivalent stress on the miniscrew surface, and absolute value of minimum principal stresses in the surrounding bone decreased with increasing insertion depth. Stresses in the obliquely inserted miniscrew with upward traction were smaller than in other insertion conditions, irrespective of insertion depth. With the application of orthodontic force, stress distribution around the miniscrew and surrounding bone is closely related to the insertion depth and insertion angle, which mutually affect each other. In particular, the obliquely inserted miniscrew with upward traction might be the most secure against screw failure and fracture.
