Longitudinal effects of rapid maxillary expansion on masticatory muscles activity
BACKGROUND To investigate the modifications induced by rapid maxillary expansion (RME) on the electromyographic (EMG) activities of the anterior temporal and superficial masseter muscles, in patients without pre-treatment EMG alterations. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-one patients with unilateral posterior cross-bite selected from the orthodontic department of the University of L'Aquila (Italy)...
متن کاملBone-Borne Maxillary Expansion and Traditional Rapid Maxillary Expansion: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Introduction: The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the effect of bone-borne expansion (BBE) and tooth-borne expansion (TBE) in patients with maxillary constriction. Methods: Electronic databases, including MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, were searched up to February 2019. Elig...
متن کاملStability of Rapid Maxillary Expansion
The stability of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) was studied in 20 patients. Study models were evaluated immediately prior to treatment, at the end of treatment, and at least 4 years post-treatment with regards to maxillary and mandibular intermolar widths, intercanine widths, arch perimeters, and irregularity indices. The mean maxillary intermolar width increased by 3.7 mm during treatment, an...
متن کاملDown syndrome: otolaryngological effects of rapid maxillary expansion.
OBJECTIVE Phenotypical Down syndrome includes pharyngeal and maxillary hypoplasia and, frequently, constricted maxillary arch with nasal obstruction. STUDY DESIGN This clinical trial assessed the effects of rapid maxillary expansion on ENT disorders in 24 children with Down syndrome randomly allocated to receive either rapid maxillary expansion or not. Each group received ENT and speech thera...
متن کاملEffect of conductive hearing loss on central auditory function.
INTRODUCTION It has been demonstrated that long-term Conductive Hearing Loss (CHL) may influence the precise detection of the temporal features of acoustic signals or Auditory Temporal Processing (ATP). It can be argued that ATP may be the underlying component of many central auditory processing capabilities such as speech comprehension or sound localization. Little is known about the consequen...
