This book was released on 2024 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The specialty of orthodontics aims to optimize patients' skeletal and dental relationships, creating a harmonious orofacial complex and improving facial aesthetics and occlusal function. One common orthodontic problem is transverse maxillary constriction. Clinically, a transverse deficiency in the upper jaw presents as a narrow palate, dental crowding, crossbite, or a combination of these findings. If this orthodontic problem is diagnosed during the primary or mixed dentition years, it can be readily corrected with rapid palatal expansion. However, adult patients may also present with transverse maxillary constriction, which at this stage of skeletal maturation, requires more invasive treatment. Two treatment options that can address transverse deficiency in non-growing patients are surgically-assisted rapid palatal expansion (SARPE) and microimplant-assisted-rapid-palatal Expansion (MARPE). The MARPE technique involves the use of a maxillary skeletal expander (MSE) appliance anchored to the maxilla with mini-screws, applying expansile forces directly to the skeleton, rather than distributing them across the palate and dentition. Symmetric mid-palatal sutural separation is the anticipated therapeutic effect; however, midfacial changes may occur at other circummaxillary sutures. MARPE treatment outcomes must be evaluated clinically and radiographically. CBCT is the radiographic imaging modality of choice for patients treated with MARPE because of the effects that occur in all three planes of space. Mid-palatal suture measurements, and an abundance of additional information, can be obtained from 3D imaging analysis. The current evidence base surrounding clinical considerations of MSE placement for MARPE therapy is limited. The primary goal of this study was to assess if the skeletal position of MSE mini-screw/temporary anchorage device (TAD) placement influences the magnitude of mid-palatal suture separation and/or is associated with asymmetric skeletal changes during MARPE therapy, using CBCT imaging. We hypothesized that significant differences in mini-screw angulation relative to the palatal plane and the anteroposterior position of the MSE appliance in the hard palate may be associated with asymmetric mid-palatal suture separation. Subjects were grouped based on magnitude of asymmetric separation at the mid-palatal suture. Circummaxillary suture separation symmetry was compared between groups, along with anteroposterior positioning of the appliance, and mini-screw angulation. Our data analyses showed that the only statistically significant correlation for right and left suture separation occurred at the medial pterygoid plate suture in subjects with symmetric mid-palatal suture separation. Analysis of MSE placement and mini-screw angulation in all subjects revealed that the anteroposterior position of the mini-screws is associated with asymmetric expansion, while TAD angulation was not significant. Our findings provide guidance for clinicians' placement of the MSE appliance in the hard palate. Careful planning and execution of MARPE therapy is likely to lead to improved predictability of mid-palatal suture separation and subsequent changes to other circummaxillary structures.

Book A Comparison of Dental and Skeletal Changes Between Rapid Palatal Expansion and Nickel Titanium Palatal Expansion

Download or read book A Comparison of Dental and Skeletal Changes Between Rapid Palatal Expansion and Nickel Titanium Palatal Expansion written by Christopher Ciambotti and published by . This book was released on 1999-11-01 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Palatal expansion used to correct maxillomandibular transverse discrepancies occurs through a combination of skeletal (orthopedic) expansion, which involves separating the maxilla at the midpalatal suture, and dental (orthodontic) expansion, which results from buccal tipping of the maxillary posterior teeth. The proportion of skeletal and dental movement is dependent on the rate of expansion (rapid or slow) and the age of the patient during treatment. A The goal of palatal expansion is to maximize the skeletal movement and to minimize the dental movement, while allowing for physiological adjustment of the suture during separation.

Book The Assessment of Rapid Palatal Expansion Using a Remote Monitoring Software

Download or read book The Assessment of Rapid Palatal Expansion Using a Remote Monitoring Software written by Princy Kuriakose and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction: Dental Monitoring® (DM) is a software system that allows orthodontists to remotely monitor a patient’s treatment. This study evaluated the accuracy of DM software in assessing the achievement of treatment goals in patients undergoing rapid palatal expansion (RPE) treatment and patient acceptance of DM. Methods: Consecutively treated RPE patients were invited to participate. Participants were trained to capture intraoral photos/videos using the DM app. Maxillary intermolar width (mm) and posterior crossbite correction measured by DM were compared to digital models and intraoral measurements. Patient acceptance of the DM app was evaluated with a survey. Results: Out of the 30 patients enrolled, 20 patients completed the study. DM accurately assessed the correction of posterior crossbite. There was no significant difference in intermolar width measurements obtained with DM, digital model or intraoral exam. Overall, 71% of the participants found the DM app “easy” to work with and 43% of the patients preferred DM over a clinical visit. Conclusion: In person evaluation of maxillary expansion with a Hyrax® expander can be replaced with remote monitoring using the DM software, yet challenges associated with digital imaging hinder the use of this remote evaluation for some patients.
