Mini implant has been the major tool in anchorage management in present era. Accurate positioning of mini implant is critical due to the anatomical limitation and biomechanical utility of the implant. Currently several grids and guides are in use for the same purpose. The objective of the present article is to describe the fabrication of a simple grid for accurate positioning of orthodontic implants with minimal armaterium.
