Effectiveness of Dental and Maxillary Transverse Changes in Tooth-Borne, Bone-Borne, and Hybrid Palatal Expansion through Cone-Beam Tomography: A Systematic Review of the Literature [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Palatal expansion is a common orthodontic technique able to increase the transverse changes for subjects with constricted maxillary arches.

Suppressing STAT3 activation impairs bone formation during maxillary expansion and relapse [PDF]
Objectives The mid-palatal expansion technique is commonly used to correct maxillary constriction in dental clinics. However, there is a tendency for it to relapse, and the key molecules responsible for modulating bone formation remain elusive.

Is efficacy of miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion in mid to late adolescents and young adults related to craniofacial sutures opening? A systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]
Background Transverse maxillary deficiency is a relatively common type of malocclusion, that if left untreated will probably affect the permanent dentition.

A method based on 3D affine alignment for the quantification of palatal expansion.
IntroductionThe current methodologies to quantify the palatal expansion are based on a preliminary rigid superimposition of 3D digital models representing the status of a given patient at different times.

Development of artificial neural network model for predicting the rapid maxillary expansion technique in children with cleft lip and palate. [PDF]
Aim The study aimed to determine the mid-palatal suture (MPS) maturation stages and to develop a binary logistic regression model to predict the possibility of surgical or non-surgical rapid maxillary expansion (RME) in children with unilateral cleft lip

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 ...

Introduction: Maxillary transverse deficiency is a highly prevalent malocclusion present in all age groups, from primary to permanent dentition. If not treated on time, it can aggravate and evolve to a more complex malocclusion, hindering facial growth ...
