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.

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

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

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 ...
