Miniscrew-Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion: A Scoping Review of Influencing Factors, Side Effects, and Soft Tissue Alterations [PDF]

Biomedicines
Background: Miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) has gained attention as an effective alternative to traditional rapid palatal expansion, particularly in adult patients. This scoping review synthesizes recent evidence to assess the clinical

Immediate skeletal effects of rapid maxillary expansion at midpalatal suture opening with Differential, Hyrax and Haas expanders [PDF]

Dental Press Journal of Orthodontics, 2023
Objective: The aim of this study was to test the null hypothesis that there is no difference at the midpalatal suture opening after rapid maxillary expansion (RME) using Expander with Differential Opening (EDO), Hyrax-type and Haas-type expanders ...

Suppressing STAT3 activation impairs bone formation during maxillary expansion and relapse [PDF]

Journal of Applied Oral Science, 2023
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.

Transverse maxillary deficiency: treatment alternatives in face of early skeletal maturation

Dental Press Journal of Orthodontics, 2020
Transverse deficiencies should be a priority in orthodontic treatment, and should be corrected as soon as diagnosed, to restore the correct transverse relationship between maxilla and mandible and, consequently, normal maxillary growth.

Development of artificial neural network model for predicting the rapid maxillary expansion technique in children with cleft lip and palate. [PDF]

Front Dent Med
AimThe 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 and palate (UCLP).MethodsA retrospective case control study was conducted.

Is There a Difference in Mid-Palatal Suture Density after Rapid Maxillary Expansion, Surgically Assisted Rapid Maxillary Expansion, and Miniscrew-Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Applied Sciences, 2023
The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the density of the midpalatal suture (MPS) of individuals with maxillary expansion (rapid maxillary expansion, RME), surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion (SARPE), and miniscrew ...

New highlights on effects of rapid palatal expansion on the skull base: a finite element analysis study

Dental Press Journal of Orthodontics, 2021
Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the rapid palatal expansion (RPE) on the pterygoid process (PP), spheno-occipital synchondrosis (SOS) and sella turcica (ST) in the skull of a patient with transversal maxillary ...

Cone-beam computed tomography evaluation of dentoskeletal effects produced by the bonded expander and hyrax: a pilot study

Bioscience Journal, 2016
The dentoskeletal effects produced by the bonded expander, principally the vertical ones, are controversial in the literature when compared with the effects produced by the hyrax, and have also been scarcely studied by means of cone-beam computed ...
