Assessment of the Stability of the Palatal Rugae in a 3D-3D Superimposition Technique Following Slow Maxillary Expansion (SME) [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 AbstractThe Palatal Rugae are considered a useful human identification marker for both orthodontists and forensic personnel. The principal aim of the present study was to evaluate the stability of palatal rugae with a 3D-3D superimposition procedure following Slow Maxillary Expansion (SME), in order to assess whether they kept their uniqueness and ...

Research, Society and Development, 2021 The treatment of patients with atrophic maxillary alveolar ridge who need oral rehabilitation is a common problem in Implant Dentistry. One of the techniques used is the alveolar ridge splitting technique to expand alveolar ridges with a horizontal bone decrease. The palatal approach technique is also recommended in cases with an insufficient thickness

Journal of Clinical and Experimental Dentistry, 2020 Transversal hypoplasia of the upper maxilla is a frequent condition between malocclusions. The rapid maxillary expansion (RME) is an already consolidated technique for these types of defects. This case report analyzes the outcome of a novel surgical technique that we named TOPP (Partial Palatal osteotomy technique) aiming to provide scientifically ...

Evaluation of the palatal split pattern in surgically rapid maxillary expansion—comparison of two techniques [PDF]
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2016 Surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion is performed to correct transverse deficiencies of the maxilla, and it is indicated in specific clinical situations. The literature presents different opinions in several aspects, mainly regarding the effect of disjunction of the pterygoid plates.

Expansion sphincter pharyngoplasty and palatal advancement pharyngoplasty: airway evaluation and surgical techniques [PDF]
Operative Techniques in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 2012 Multiple palatopharyngoplasty techniques are available for reconstruction of the upper pharyngeal airway. To select appropriate procedures, the surgeon requires classification methods, but traditional staging systems only describe levels of obstruction and do not relate sufficient anatomical detail to specify an intervention.

A photogrammetric technique for the analysis of palatal three-dimensional changes during rapid maxillary expansion [PDF]
The European Journal of Orthodontics, 2006 The aim of this study was to assess, by a digital photogrammetric technique, the relative dimensional changes before and after rapid maxillary expansion (RME). The transverse diameters and volumetric variations of the palate were measured by photogrammetry on study casts taken at three different phases of therapy: at the beginning of treatment (T1), on

Polish Annals of Medicine, 2013 Abstract Introduction Palatal suture expansion techniques are used to treat severe maxillary narrowing and lead to its base extending. The palatal suture expansion procedure was for the first time described by Angell in 1860. Aim To review the palatal suture expansion methods, particularly surgically-assisted rapid maxillary expansion technique ...
