Non-surgical rapid maxillary expansion with mini-implants in adults: A Narrative Review.
Journal of Oral Research, 2022 Introduction: In recent years, rapid maxillary expansion (RME) in prepubertal growth stages has been deeply investigated; however, its study has recently been increasing in adults without need for surgery.

Treatment and posttreatment skeletal effects of rapid maxillary expansion studied with low-dose computed tomography in growing subjects [PDF]
, 2008 Introduction: The aim of this study was to apply low-dose computed tomography (CT) to evaluate treatment and posttreatment effects produced by rapid maxillary expansion (RME) at the levels of the midpalatal suture and the pterygoid processes.

Midpalatal suture bone repair after miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion in adults
Progress in Orthodontics, 2022 Background Midpalatal suture (MPS) repair in growing patients after RPE has been previously reported. However, differences between young and adult patients for timing and pattern of MPS repair after rapid maxillary expansion are expected. The aim of this

Slow maxillary expansion: a comparison between banded and bonded appliances [PDF]
, 2017 Various investigations have mentioned the use of a bonded maxillary expansion appliance. It was postulated that a full coverage of the occlusal surfaces by acrylic would remove interferences during the lateral displacement of the two maxillary bones and ...

Skeletal alterations associated with the use of bonded rapid maxillary expansion appliance [PDF]
, 2011 Bonded maxillary expansion appliances have been suggested to control increases in the vertical dimension of the face after rapid maxillary expansion (RME). However, there is still no consensus in the literature about its real skeletal effects.
