Abstract: New bone formation is known to occur between the opened palatal bones after rapid mid-palatal expansion (RME), although the time-dependent changes in the mid-palatal suture after RME have not been fully examined.

Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) expression in the suture were also examined using reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction and immu…
