[Palatal distractor. An innovative approach for palatal expansion].
Mund-, Kiefer- und Gesichtschirurgie : MKG, 2003A method is introduced using a newly developed palatal distractor, which allows rapid transversal widening in cases of maxillary compression.After osteotomy of the palate parallel to the sutura palatina mediana as well as to the lateral walls of the maxillary sinuses, the applied distractor permitted a transversal widening of 7.5 mm within 3 weeks ...

Rapid palatal expansion: the role of microcirculation.
Minerva stomatologica, 2015Transverse palate modifications fall under expansive orthopedic therapy of the upper maxilla. The only practical approach to the problem on the transverse plane is that of performing the expansion of the maxillary arch through an opening of the median palatal suture. It is important to understand the changes of the vascular network in midpalatal suture

Pulp vitality after rapid palatal expansion
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 2010Although it has been suggested that orthodontic treatment might lead to changes in the dental pulp, no clinical study has attempted to investigate the incidence of pulp necrosis after orthodontic therapy. The purpose of this clinical trial was to determine whether pulp testing response is altered after rapid palatal expansion (RPE).Twenty-five ...

Intraoperative Rapid Expansion in Cleft Palate Repair
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1993Intraoperative rapid expansion in cleft palate repair increases surface area by distension of the palate and recruitment of the surrounding palate tissue. A 5-cc Foley catheter with the distal tip trimmed is employed as the tissue expander. Intraoperative rapid palate expansion is proposed for closure with less tension of large gaps between cleft ...

Arch perimeter changes on rapid palatal expansion
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 1990Relationships between changes in arch perimeter and arch width resulting from rapid palatal expansion with the Hyrax appliance were analyzed with the use of dental study casts of 21 adolescent patients. Photographs and measurements from the dental casts obtained before treatment and approximately 3 months after stabilization were used.

Palatal expansion and the Klippel-Trénaunay-Weber syndrome
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 2005A girl (aged 8.5 years) with Klippel-Trénaunay-Weber syndrome received orthodontic treatment that included rapid palatal expansion. The patient had early and complete intraoral dental eruption with a posterior crossbite and an expressive transverse atresic maxilla.

Stability of magnetic versus mechanical palatal expansion
European Journal of Orthodontics, 1989Spatial stability following palatal expansion (PE) treatment was studied longitudinally on 8 Macaca fascicularis monkeys. The sample was divided into short-term and long-term groups. The four subjects in each group received: (1) an indirect screw (IS) PE appliance (F = 2035 g), (2) an indirect magnetic (IM) PE appliance (F = 258 g and 360 g), (3) a ...

Differential Rapid Maxillary Expansion in Cleft Palate
British Journal of Orthodontics, 1977Conventional methods of rapid maxillary expansion using rigid mechanisms are not appropriate to patients with cleft lip and palate in whom there has been severe growth deficiency in the lateral dimension. In such patients, much more expansion is usually needed in the canine regions than in the molar regions.

Palatal expansion with a total denture.
The Journal of clinical pediatric dentistry, 1995A case report of a pediatric patient who had posterior crossbite is presented. She was diagnosed with hypophosphatasia and had primary tooth loss. A total denture was constructed for aesthetics and function. For the correction of posterior cross bite, a palatal screw was placed in the upper denture.
