Abstract:

Background and purpose: Transverse problems in the maxilla (high arched- narrow hard plates) can cause respiratory disorders. Palatal expansion can be helpful in this way. The present study aimed at evaluating the effect of bone borne expansion and tooth borne palatal expansion on airway volume. Materials and methods: A review study was performed by search in Google Scholar, Scopus, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane using the following keywords: maxillary expansion, palatal expansion, miniscrew-assisted palatal expansion, tooth borne, bone borne, rapid palatal expansion, airway dimension, and Cone beam computed tomography. The search was limited to articles published in January 2011-April 2021. Results: In the initial search, 343 articles were found. After reviewing the titles and abstracts only 20 papers were found that studied the effect of bone and tooth borne palatal expansion on airway dimensions and met the inclusion criteria. The studies indicated that both bone expansion and tooth borne palatal expansion could considerably increase airway volumes. However, only bone borne palatal expansion enabled more predictable and greater skeletal expansion and less teeth response. Conclusion: Both bone and tooth borne palatal expansion are efficient in increasing the airway volume. Further randomized clinical trials with large sample size and matched control groups, longer follow-up periods and measuring respiration index such as apnea-hypopnea index are suggested.

Bone-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...

Maxillary changes with bone-borne surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion: A prospective study.

INTRODUCTION The aim of this prospective study was to analyze the postexpansion positional changes of the maxillary halves and their initial stability after transpalatal distraction with a bone-borne distractor and standard corticotomies of the anterior, lateral, and median bony supports of the maxilla without pterygomaxillary disjunction. METHODS The sample consisted of 21 patients (15 femal...

Periodontal effects of rapid maxillary expansion with tooth-tissue-borne and tooth-borne expanders: a computed tomography evaluation.

INTRODUCTION The force delivered during rapid maxillary expansion (RME) produces areas of compression on the periodontal ligament of the supporting teeth. The resulting alveolar bone resorption can lead to unwanted tooth movement in the same direction. The purpose of this study was to evaluate periodontal changes by means of computed tomography after RME with tooth-tissue-borne and tooth-borne ...

Volumetric changes of the nose and nasal airway 2 years after tooth-borne and bone-borne surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion.

This study aimed to assess the effects of bone-borne and tooth-borne surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion on the volumes of the nose and nasal airway 2 yr after maxillary expansion. This prospective cohort study included 32 patients with transverse maxillary hypoplasia. Expansion was performed with a tooth-borne distractor (Hyrax) in 19 patients and with a bone-borne distractor [transp...
