Cone beam computed tomography evaluation of midpalatal suture maturation in adults [PDF]

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2017
The aim of this study was to evaluate midpalatal suture maturation in adults, as observed in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. CBCT scans from 78 subjects (64 female and 14 male, age range from 18 to 66 years) were evaluated. Midpalatal suture maturation was verified on the central cross-sectional axial slice in the superior-inferior ...

Ultrasonic mapping of midpalatal suture – An ex-vivo study

Journal of Dentistry
Rapid maxillary expansion is a common orthodontic procedure to correct maxillary constriction. Assessing the midpalatal suture (MPS) expansion plays a crucial role in treatment planning to determine its effectiveness. The objectives of this preliminary investigation are to demonstrate a proof of concept that the palatal bone underlying the rugae can be

MicroRNA-21 affects mechanical force-induced midpalatal suture remodelling. [PDF]

Cell Prolif, 2020
AbstractObjectivesmiR‐21 can promote osteoblast differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells. However, the effect of miR‐21 on bone remodelling in the midpalatal suture is unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the effects of miR‐21 on the midpalatal suture bone remodelling by expanding the palatal sutures.Materials and methodsmiR‐21 deficient ...

Rapid maxillary expansion outcomes according to midpalatal suture maturation levels. [PDF]

Prog Orthod, 2019
This study aims to compare the relationship between skeletal and dental outcomes of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) treatment on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images between pre-pubertal peak (pre-peak) and post-pubertal peak (post-peak) patients.

Midpalatal Suture of Osteopetrotic (op/op) Mice Exhibits Immature Fusion.

Experimental Animals, 1998
The midpalatal suture was observed histologically in both toothless osteopetrotic (op/op) and normal (control) mice. The normal mice had a mature sutural structure, which consists of a well-developed cartilage cell zone and palatal bone. In contrast, the thickness of the cartilage cell zone was substantially greater in the op/op mice than that in the ...

Expansion Pattern of Miniscrew Assisted Rapid Maxillary Expansion (MARPE) After Midpalatal Suture Separation: Clustering-Based Classification. [PDF]

Orthod Craniofac Res
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to establish a clustering‐based classification model for skeletal expansion outcomes after miniscrew‐assisted rapid maxillary expansion (MARPE) and evaluate its clinical implications. Material and Methods The study samples comprised 61 patients with transverse discrepancy who underwent maxillary skeletal expansion ...
