Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effects of dentoalveolar, dentoskeletal, nasal resistance, and airway changes by applying rapid palatal expansion appliances in patients with maxillary constriction and the post-pubertal growth spurt stage.

Conditions

  • Transverse Maxillary Deficiency

Interventions

DEVICE

Tooth Tissue Borne Rapid Palatal Expansion

In all rapid palatal expansion groups, the appliances were cis bonded after being made by the same technician. The expansion screw was turned twice a day until the desired width was achieved.

DEVICE

Tooth Bone Borne Rapid Palatal Expansion

After the Marpe appliance was attached, 4 miniscrews were applied to the midline of the palate with a miniscrew driver. The expansion screw was turned twice a day until the desired width was achieved.
