Rapid Maxillary Expansion: A Review

open access: yesJournal of Contemporary Orthodontics, 2022
Arch expansion is a method of gaining space. An apparently complex yet relatively simple procedure in orthodontics is Palatal expansion. The correction of transverse maxillary deficiency can be an important component of an orthodontic treatment plan. Rapid Maxillary expansion (RME) is a skeletal type of expansion that involves the separation of the mid-

Effects of rapid-slow maxillary expansion on the dentofacial structures

open access: yesAustralasian Orthodontic Journal, 2023
To date, no study has determined if rapid followed by slow maxillary expansion (also termed ‘semi-rapid’ expansion) has the same effects on the dentofacial skeleton as rapid maxillary expansion.

Rapid Maxillary Expansion (RME): An Otolaryngologic Perspective

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2022
Background. To evaluate the possible effects of Rapid Maxillary Expansion (RME), such as nasal breathing problems, middle ear function, Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in the otolaryngology field. RME has already been introduced in orthodontics to expand the maxilla of young patients affected by transversal maxillary constriction. Methods.

Nasal cavity changes and the respiratory standard after maxillary expansion

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2008
Summary: Mandibular cross-sectional deficiency is a dentofacial defect in connection with the narrowing of the mandibular arch width. This abnormality is a significant etiopathogenic factor and it is often associated with nasal breathing difficulties ...

Maxillary expansion in an animal model with light, continuous force [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Objectives: Maxillary constriction is routinely addressed with rapid maxillary expansion (RME). However, the heavy forces delivered by most RME appliances to expand the palate may lead to deleterious effects on the teeth and supporting tissues.
