O objetivo desse trabalho é apresentar uma série de casos clínicos com mordida cruzada posterior tratados com aparelhos autoligados, bem como realizar uma revisão da literatura sobre o assunto. Mordidas cruzadas posteriores são frequentemente tratadas com procedimento de expansão. Para realizar a e...
Multidisciplinary rehabilitating treatment regimens always pose a challenge to orthodontist. The team behind the condition diagnosis chooses a treatment regimen that may achieve predictable and satisfying results both aesthetically and functionally, according to the patient expectation.

ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the skeletal and dental effects of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) in cleft patients using two types of expanders. Methods: Twenty unilateral cleft lip and palate patients were randomly divided into two groups, according to the type of expander ...
ABSTRACT Introduction: the treatment of Class III malocclusion in early age is one of the greatest challenges for orthodontists, and the establishment of more effective treatment method is a constant concern for these professionals. Thus, the objective of this systematic review is to verify the effecti...
ABSTRACT Rapid maxillary expansion (RME) primarily involves the mechanical opening of the midpalatal suture of the maxillary and palatine bones. The fusion of the midpalatal suture determines the failure of RME, a common event in late adolescents and young adults. Recently, the assessment of the maturati...
ABSTRACT The midpalatal suture has bone margins with thick connective tissue interposed between them, and it does not represent the fusion of maxillary palatal processes only, but also the fusion of palatal processes of the jaws and horizontal osseous laminae of palatal bones. Changing it implies affecti...
Objective: To analyze cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans to measure changes in nasal septal deviation (NSD) after rapid maxillary expansion (RME) treatment in adolescent patients. Methods: This retrospective study involved 33 patients presenting with moderate to severe nasal septum deviation as ...
Previous investigations addressing the long-term effects of rapid or slow expansion on the face and teeth involved the use of a orthodontic fixed appliance following expansion therapy. The present study evaluated changes in dentoskeletal aspects following rapid maxillary expansion (RME) and determine the...
