Expansion of the lower arch concurrent with rapid maxillary expansion
The effect of rapid maxillary expansion on the mandibular intercanine and intermolar widths during treatment and its stability after retention was studied. In addition, the relationships between the interarch change and the facial types and ages of the subjects of the sample were evaluated.

ABSTRACT Genetic disorders commonly share features such as developmental delays, cognitive impairment, and behavioral challenges, yet many conditions also present unique dysmorphic features that distinguish them. Performing a thorough medical and family history and a detailed physical exam with attention to dysmorphic features is often the first step ...

Who was the real sabertooth predator: Thylacosmilus or Thylacoleo?
Abstract Sabertoothed mammalian predators, all now extinct, were almost exclusively feloid carnivorans (Eutheria, Placentalia): here a couple of extinct metatherian predators are considered in comparison with the placental sabertooths. Thylacosmilus (the “marsupial sabertooth”) and Thylacoleo (the “marsupial lion”) were both relatively large (puma ...

RAPID MAXILLARY EXPANSION (SARMS) SURGICALLY ASSISTED IN ADULT PATIENTS
Surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion (SARMS) is an innovative procedure in orthodontics aimed at treating jaw discrepancies and correcting tooth and jaw alignment problems in adult patients. This technique involves the use of an expansion device

The dawn of rapid maxillary expansion.
The first report of lateral maxillary expansion by separation of the maxilla, written by Angell and published in 1860, was discredited. Applying our present-day knowledge of the technique to the original documents indicates that the case history agrees in general with current observations.

The effect of rapid maxillary expansion in children: a meta-analysis
Craniofacial growth is modified by chronic mouth breathing. Rapid maxillary expansion leads to separation of the mid-palatal suture, improving the occlusion and the upper airway size.Systematically evaluate scientific articles on the effects of rapid maxillary expansion on airway dimensions and classify the quality of the evidence of the information ...

Early synapsids neurosensory diversity revealed by CT and synchrotron scanning
Abstract Non‐mammaliaform synapsids (NMS) represent the closest relatives of today's mammals among the early amniotes. Exploring their brain and nervous system is key to understanding how mammals evolved. Here, using CT and Synchrotron scanning, we document for the first time three extreme cases of neurosensory and behavioral adaptations that probe ...
