Since its introduction into dentistry in 1998, CBCT has become increasingly utilized for
orthodontic diagnosis, treatment planning and research. The utilization of CBCT for these …

Summary Background Miniscrew-Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion (MARPE) is a non-
surgical treatment for transverse maxillary deficiency. However, there is limited evidence …

Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the skeletal and dentoalveolar changes after
miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) in young adults by cone-beam …

INTRODUCTION: The purposes of this study were to analyze and compare the immediate
effects of rapid and slow maxillary expansion protocols, accomplished by Haas-type palatal …

INTRODUCTION: The reasons for inaccuracies in alveolar bone measurement from cone-
beam computed tomography (CBCT) images might be multifactorial. In this study, we …

Background During rapid maxillary expansion (RME), heavy forces are transmitted to the
maxilla by the anchored teeth causing buccal inclination and buccal bone loss of posterior …

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: The aim of this randomized clinical trial was to evaluate the dental,
dentoalveolar, and skeletal changes occurring right after the rapid maxillary expansion …

Objectives: To assess the changes in the maxillary buccal alveolar bone during alignment
without extractions. Secondarily, to evaluate the changes in arch dimensions and …

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate and compare the effectiveness of rapid maxillary
expansion (RME) and slow maxillary expansion (SME). MATERIALS AND METHODS …

Objectives The purpose of this “two-arm parallel” trial was to compare the orthopedic, dental,
and alveolar bone plate changes of slow (SME) and rapid (RME) maxillary expansions in …
