Midpalatal Suture Density Evaluation after Rapid and Slow Maxillary Expansion with a Low-Dose CT Protocol: A Retrospective Study [PDF]
Background and objectives: The aim of the present paper is to use low-dose computed tomography (CT) to evaluate the changes in the midpalatal suture density in patients treated with rapid maxillary expansion (RME) and slow maxillary expansion (SME ...

Severe Maxillary Protrusion Treated with Surgically Assisted Rapid Maxillary Expansion. [PDF]
In this case, surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion (SARME) was successfully adopted to treat a skeletal maxillary protrusion with large overjet and severe crowding. The female patient, aged 25 years and 11 months, was diagnosed with skeletal maxillary protrusion with severe crowding and excessive overjet associated with labially inclined ...

Computational fluid dynamics analysis of the upper airway after rapid maxillary expansion: a case report [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Assessment of the upper airway volume, morphology, and mechanics is of great importance for the orthodontic patient. We hypothesize that upper airway dimensions have significant effects on the dynamics of the airway flow and that both the ...

Rapid maxillary expander vs planas expansion plates
One of the most frequent issues in orthodontics is the contraction of the maxilla, sometimes associated with unilateral or bilateral cross-bite. Correcting the transverse diameters of the maxillary arch can be achieved through various devices, both ...
