Abstract
INTRODUCTION The study investigated the skeletal effects and root resorption in young adults with maxillary transverse deficiency after tissue-borne or tooth-borne mini-implant anchorage maxillary expansion. METHODS Ninety-one young adults with maxillary transverse deficiency, aged 16-25 years, were divided into 3 groups according to the treatment method: group A (n = 29) comprising patients treated with tissue-borne miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE), the group B (n = 32) comprising patients treated with tooth-borne MARPE, and the control group (n = 30) comprising patients only treated with fixed orthodontic therapies. Pretreatment and posttreatment cone-beam computed tomography images were used to assess the change of maxillary width, nasal width, first molar torque and root volume by paired t test in the 3 groups, respectively. Analysis of variance and Tukey least significant difference analysis were used to detect the changes of all descriptions among the 3 groups P <0.05. RESULTS In the 2 experimental groups, we observed significant increases in the width of the maxilla, nasal, and arch width, as well as the molar torque. In addition, the height of the alveolar bone and the root volume decreased significantly. There were no significant differences in the maxilla, nasal, and arch width change between the 2 groups. Group B displayed more increases in buccal tipping, alveolar bone loss, and root volume loss than group A (P <0.05). Compared with groups A and B, the control group showed negligible tooth volume loss, with no expansion effect in both skeletal and dental descriptions. CONCLUSIONS Tissue-borne MARPE produced the same expansion efficiency as tooth-borne MARPE. However, tooth-borne MARPE causes more dentoalveolar side effects in buccal tipping, root resorption and alveolar bone loss.

External root resorption and rapid maxillary expansion in the short-term: a CBCT comparative study between tooth-borne and bone-borne appliances, using 3D imaging digital technology. BMC Oral Health 2023; 23:558. [PMID: 37573295 PMCID: PMC10422725 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-023-03280-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2023] [Accepted: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 08/14/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to analyze and compare external root resorption (ERR) in patients treated with tooth-borne (TB) and bone-borne (BB) rapid maxillary expansion (RME). METHODS The sample included 40 subjects who received tooth-borne RME (TB group, average age: 13.1 ± 1.08 years) or bone-borne RME (BB group, average age: 14.5 ± 1.11 years) and Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans before treatment (T0) and after 3-month of retention (T1). A specific 3D Imaging technology was used to generate 3D models of posterior dentition (M1 = maxillary first molars, P2 = second premolars, P1 = first premolar) and calculate volumetric data (mean and percentage values) and shape changes, the latter obtained from deviation analysis between the radicular models at different time points. Evaluation of radicular length changes was performed for each tooth. Data were statistically analysed to perform intra-timing and inter-groups comparisons. RESULTS A significant reduction of radicular volume and length was found in posterior dentition in both groups (p < 0.05), and the M1 (volume) and its palatal root (length) were mostly involved in this response. No differences were found between M1, P1 and P2 (p > 0.05) when volumetric changes were calculated as percentage of the total volume. Deviation analysis revealed that the radicular areas mostly affected by shape change were the apex and bucco-medial side. The amount of ERR was significantly greater in TB group compared to BB group. CONCLUSIONS BB-RME treatment could reduce the amount of ERR at the post-expansion stage.

Abstract
Aim: The upper jaw transverse deficit is certainly one of the most common clinical issues in the orthodontic field. It can be due to skeletal or dental factors, and its etiology may be both genetic and environmental. Rapid maxillary expanders (RMEs) are certainly the most effective appliance for upper transverse deficiency correction. The aim of this study was to evaluate the changes that occurred in the mandibular arch during treatment with RMEs in growing subjects by analyzing tridimensional lower digital casts. Materials and Methods: The study group (SG) consisted of 20 subjects (10 M, 10 F; mean age 9.4 ± 2.8 years old) randomly selected at the Department of Orthodontics at the University of Rome, "Tor Vergata". The inclusion criteria were negative posterior transverse interarch discrepancy ≥ 4 mm, mixed dentition phase with first permanent molars erupted, and prepubertal skeletal maturation stage (CS1-2), evaluated on a lateral radiograph through the Cervical Vertebral Maturation method. The SG was compared to an untreated control group (CG) of 20 subjects (10 M, 10 F, mean age 8.7 ± 2.3 years old) enrolled with the same inclusion criteria. The SG was treated by using RMEs. Dental casts of the lower arch were taken at two different times (T0-T1 = 6 months). All the dental casts were scanned with an OrthoXscan (Dentaurum 6mmbh E Co., Ispringen, Germany) and twenty points on the mandibular arch were digitized using Viewbox software. A Student t-test was used to compare the means of the quantitative variables associated with the effect of the device over time T0 and T1. Results: The results show a statistically significant increase (p < 0.05) in the intercanine and the intermolar diameters between the times T0 and T1 when compared to the CG. Conclusions: Rapid maxillary orthopedic expansion may achieve an increase in mandibular intercanine and intermolar diameter.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The study aimed to compare external root resorption (ERR) three-dimensionally in subjects treated with tooth-borne (TB) versus bone-borne (BB) rapid maxillary expansion (RME). Forty subjects who received tooth-borne RME (TB group, average age 13.3 years ± 1.10 years) or bone-borne RME (BB group, average age 14.7 ± 1.15 years) were assessed using CBCT imaging before treatment (T0) and after a 6-month retention period (T1). 3D reconstructions of the radicular anatomy of maxillary first molars (M1), first and second premolars (P1 and P2) were generated to calculate volumetric (mean and percentage values) and shape changes (deviation analysis of the radicular models) obtained at each time point. 2D assessment of radicular length changes was also performed for each tooth. Data were statistically analyzed to perform intra-group (different teeth) and inter-group comparisons. RESULTS In both groups, all the investigated teeth showed a significant reduction in radicular volume and length (p < 0.05), with the first molars being the teeth most affected by the resorption process (volume and palatal root length). When volumetric radicular changes were calculated as a percentage of the pre-treatment volumes, no differences were found among the investigated teeth (p > 0.05). Based on the deviation analysis from radicular models superimposition, the areas most affected by shape change were the apex and bucco-medial root surface. Overall, the amount of ERR was significantly greater in the TB group (mm3: M1 = 17.03, P1 = 6.42, P2 = 5.26) compared to the BB group (mm3: M1 = 3.11, P1 = 1.04, P2 = 1.24). CONCLUSIONS Despite the statistical significance, the difference in the amount of ERR of the posterior maxillary dentition between TB-RME and BB-RME remains clinically questionable.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim was to identify factors associated with maxillary expander loss due to anchoring deciduous molars exfoliation and assess the diagnostic accuracy of the upper second premolar cusp position as a prognostic factor for the exfoliation of its corresponding deciduous molar. MATERIALS/METHODS Ninety-two subjects aged 8.4 ± 1.1 years, treated with a Haas or hyrax expander, and using the same expansion protocol and deciduous teeth as anchorage were included. The position of the upper second premolar cusp, according to the half pulp chamber (HPC) line of the ipsilateral upper first permanent molar, was assessed on pre-treatment panoramic radiographs. RESULTS A significant association between anchoring deciduous molar exfoliation and the position of the upper second premolar cusp according to the HPC line (P = 0.002; odds ratio = 5.7) was seen, while there was no association with gender, age, treatment duration, and type of expander. The median survival time for an anchoring deciduous molar, when the underlying premolar cusp was touching/crossing the HPC line, was 13.0 (11.7; 14.2) months. The upper second premolar cusp position to the HPC line showed high accuracy (at least 76.11 per cent) and substantial repeatability (at least 0.7) as a prognostic factor for the corresponding second deciduous molar exfoliation. LIMITATIONS Applicability in the mixed dentition phase with fully erupted upper first permanent molars. CONCLUSIONS The probability of a second deciduous molar to be successfully used as maxillary expander anchorage for at least 16 months is above 94 per cent; when at baseline, the corresponding premolar cusp is apical to the HPC line.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim was to assess the diagnostic ability of the crown-to-root length ratio of the primary second molar and the position of the corresponding underlying premolar in estimating future anchoring teeth exfoliation during maxillary expansion. SETTING AND SAMPLE POPULATION Fifty-four subjects (30 females, 24 males; 108 teeth) aged 8.2 ± 1.0 years that underwent palatal expansion. METHODS The upper second premolar position of the corresponding expander anchoring primary molar was determined in relation to the ipsilateral first permanent molar half-pulp chamber (HPC) line on panoramic radiographs. Subjective and objective (based on measurements) assessments of the crown-to-root length ratio of anchoring primary molars were performed. Exfoliation after the expansion was recorded over a retention period of 12 months. All the assessments were performed individually by three examiners at two 3-week-apart sessions, trained and calibrated before enrolment. The intra-/inter-examiner agreements were evaluated, and the diagnostic accuracy of the methods was calculated. RESULTS All methods exhibited almost perfect intra- and at least substantial inter-examiner agreement (Kappa >0.8 and ≥0.63, respectively). Good diagnostic accuracy was seen for the premolar position to the HPC line (0.7-0.8), while the crown-to-root length ratio methods exhibited hardly sufficient accuracy. The diagnostic agreement of the methods was fair. CONCLUSIONS When primary molars are considered as anchoring teeth for maxillary expansion, the premolar position in relation to the HPC line appears to be the most valid and reliable method for predicting their stability. Despite high repeatability values, the crown-to-root length ratio needs a cut-off point re-definition to increase its predicting ability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to assess the influence of different types of rapid maxillary expansion on root resorption (RR). METHODS Literature searches were carried out electronically in five English and two Chinese databases. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs), controlled clinical trials (CCTs), cohort studies, and case-control studies were included. The data were extracted by three authors. The risk of bias in the RCTs and nonrandomized studies were assessed in accordance with corresponding scales. RESULTS Among the 400 articles identified, seven were included for the final analysis. Three studies were graded as high value of evidence, while two and another two studies were graded as moderate value and low value, respectively. According to the available evidence, the tooth-borne maxillary expansion caused more obvious RR of anchorage teeth than the bone-borne one. In addition, the Haas-type palatal acrylic pads could not effectively reduce the degree of RR. The difference in the design of the retainer between the tooth-borne maxillary expansion (the use of a band or wire framework to connect the anchorage tooth) did not cause the difference in the incidence and degree of RR. CONCLUSIONS Clinical evidence suggested that bone-borne maxillary expansion may decrease the amount of RR, while the amounts of resorption did not significantly differ between Haas and Hyrax and between different retainer types of Hyrax.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess dental root development in two groups of paediatric patients who received treatments with reverse headgear and rapid maxillary expansion and slow maxillary dental arch expansion. MATERIALS AND METHODS The 20 subjects (13 girls, 7 boys; mean age: 8.9 ± 1.3 years) in the first group were treated with a Petit-type reverse headgear attached to a full-coverage bonded rapid maxillary expander via elastics (RME&RHg group). The 20 subjects included in the second group (9 girls, 11 boys; mean age: 9.1 ± 2.2 years) were selected among patients who were treated with Hawley appliances for slow maxillary expansion (SME group). Digitized panoramic radiographs were used. A total of 960 permanent teeth (maxillary-mandibular incisors, canines, premolars, and first molars) were measured quantitatively for pre-treatment and post-treatment. RESULTS No significant increase was found except for the right and left maxillary and mandibular second premolars and left mandibular and first premolar in the RME&RHg group (P < 0.05). Teeth length values increased significantly in all maxillary and mandibular teeth except maxillary first molars and mandibular incisors in the SME group (P < 0.05). Inter-group comparisons showed that statistically significant differences were observed in maxillary and mandibular incisors, left maxillary first premolar, and molar teeth (P > 0.05). LIMITATION A limitation of this study is the use of two-dimensional radiographic images for root length measurement. However, ethical obligations limit the dental cone beam computed tomography imaging application for protection of paediatric patients from harm. CONCLUSIONS RME&RHg therapy inhibits root development of maxillary and mandibular teeth in the early period. However, further studies should be performed to determine whether this effect on root development is reversible or irreversible.

Abstract
Objective This study examined bone microstructure restoration after rapid maxillary expansion (RME) with and without corticotomy over multiple retention periods. Methods Eighteen male Dorper sheep were randomly distributed into three groups (n = 6 each group): group 1, RME with corticotomy on the buccal and palatal sides; group 2, conventional RME treatment; and group 3, no treatment. Post-RME, trabecular bone microstructure and new bone formation were evaluated by using microcomputed tomography (microCT) and histomorphometry after a 4- or 12-week retention period. Intergroup differences in bone quality and bone remodeling were analyzed by using two-way analysis of variance with Bonferroni post-hoc test. Results The bone volume fraction (bone volume [BV]/total volume [TV]) values relative to the control in groups 1 and 2 were 54.40% to 69.88% after the 4-week retention period and returned to approximately 80% after the 12-week retention period. The pooled BV/TV values of the banded teeth in groups 1 and 2 were significantly lower than those of the control after the 4-week retention period (p < 0.05). However, after the 12-week retention period, the pooled BV/TV values in group 2 were significantly lower than those in groups 1 and 3 (p < 0.05). Histomorphological analysis showed that the new bone formation area in group 1 was approximately two to three times of those in group 2 and control. Conclusions Corticotomy significantly enhanced the restoration of bone quality after the retention periods for banded teeth. This benefit might result from the increased new bone formation after corticotomy.

Abstract
Background The present systematic review analyzed the current literature to investigate whether rapid maxillary expansion (RME) causes radicular resorption, assessed by cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Material and Methods Eighteen electronic databases and reference lists of studies were searched up to November 2017. Grey literature was also screened. To be included, articles must be human studies on growing subjects with transversal maxillary deficiency treated with maxillary expansion protocol and with 3-D radiographic assessment of radicular volume by CBCT images. Two authors independently performed study selection, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment. Study characteristics (study design, sample size, age, sex, skeletal maturity, type of appliance, daily activation, teeth evaluated, CBCT settings), and study outcomes (radicular volume loss) were reported according to the PRISMA statement. Results Only 3 articles were considered eligible and an individual analysis of the selected articles was undertaken. The risk of bias assessment revealed low methodological quality for all the studies included. In all the considered studies, significant radicular volume loss was observed in posterior teeth, following RME. When reported in percentage, the radicular volumetric loss was similar between anchored (first molars and first premolars) and unanchored teeth (second premolars). Conclusions A preliminary evaluation of the patient-related risk factors for RR is warmly advisable when administering RME. Key words:RME, maxillary expansion, root resorption, external root resorption.
