Comparison of the palatal expansion obtained via the use of the rapid maxillary expander compared with surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion.

CONCLUSIONS: Rapid maxillary expander and surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion SARME can be used for the resolution of malocclusions characterized by a transverse maxillary hypoplasia. The choice between RME and SARME is linked to the age of the patient, and the biological stage of the maxillary suture. PMID: 27009412 [PubMed – in process] (Source: Minerva Stomatologica)
