Sphenoid bone changes in rapid maxillary expansion assessed with cone-beam computed tomography
OBJECTIVE Rapid maxillary expansion (RME) is used to expand the maxilla and increase arch perimeter; yet, there are few reports on its effects on the sphenoid bone. With cone-beam computed topography (CBCT), it is possible to visualize sphenoid bone changes. The purpose of this study was to investigate sphenoid bone changes observed in conjunction with RME treatments, using CBCT. METHODS Sixt...
متن کاملUpper airway expansion after rapid maxillary expansion evaluated with cone beam computed tomography.
OBJECTIVE Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a reliable method of assessing the oral cavity and upper airways. We conducted this study to examine the changes introduced by rapid maxillary expansion in the nasal cavity, nasopharynx, and oropharynx as seen with images obtained by CBCT. MATERIALS AND METHODS We evaluated 15 patients with maxillary width deficiency treated with RME. Patients...
متن کاملForeign Body in Nasal Cavity: Panoramic and Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) Findings
Introduction: Panoramic view as a routine dental radiograph has an important role in diagnosis of other facial abnormalities accompanied with dento- alveolar structures. In this case presentation, we discuss this subject and also the efficacy of cone-beam computed tomography in localization of foreign body in complex anatomy of nasal cavity.
متن کاملEvaluation of alveolar bone loss following rapid maxillary expansion using cone-beam computed tomography
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the changes in cortical bone thickness, alveolar bone height, and the incidence of dehiscence and fenestration in the surrounding alveolar bone of posterior teeth after rapid maxillary expansion (RME) treatment using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). METHODS The CBCT records of 20 subjects (9 boys, mean age: 13.97 ± 1.17 years; 11 girls, mean age: 13.53 ± 2.12 year) ...
متن کاملDimensional changes of upper airway after rapid maxillary expansion: a prospective cone-beam computed tomography study.
INTRODUCTION The aim of this prospective study was to use cone-beam computed tomography to assess the dimensional changes of the upper airway in orthodontic patients with maxillary constriction treated by rapid maxillary expansion. METHODS Fourteen orthodontic patients (mean age, 12.9 years; range, 9.7-16 years) were recruited. The patients with posterior crossbite and constricted maxilla wer...
