Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop 2024:S0889-5406(24)00268-3. [PMID: 39046384 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajodo.2024.06.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2023] [Revised: 06/01/2024] [Accepted: 06/01/2024] [Indexed: 07/25/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The objective of this study was to evaluate the short-term and long-term hard-tissue changes with miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) and rapid palatal expansion (RPE) compared with a matched control group with voxel-based superimposition using 3-dimensional cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans. METHODS A total of 180 CBCT scans were analyzed for 60 patients with a mean age of 13.9 years at 3 time points: pretreatment (T1), postexpansion (T2), and posttreatment (T3). Patients were divided into 3 groups: MARPE, RPE, and controls. Voxel-based superimposition was performed for CBCTs from T1 to T2 and T1 to T3 using the anterior cranial base as a reference. The hard-tissue surfaces were extracted after the superimposition procedure. Nine landmarks were analyzed: nasion, A-point, pogonion, left and right alar bases, zygoma, and gonion. Within-group changes were analyzed using linear mixed-effects models, including a random intercept per subject and the mixed effect of time (T1, T2, or T3) with test P values adjusted for multiple testing using Tukey's method. Between-group changes were analyzed using linear mixed-effects models, including a random intercept per subject and the mixed effects of time, group, and group × time interaction with P values adjusted for multiple testing using the Benjamin-Hochberg false discovery rate method. RESULTS In the short term, both MARPE and RPE led to a significant downward movement of the right gonion and lateral movement of the right alar base compared with controls at T2 (P <0.05). In addition, MARPE led to a significant downward movement of pogonion and left gonion. RPE led to a significant downward movement of the A-point and lateral movement of the left alar base compared with controls at T2 (P <0.05). However, in the long-term, no changes were observed between the groups at T3. CONCLUSIONS There were significant differences in pogonion, alar base, and gonion between MARPE, RPE, and control groups in the short term. However, all the hard-tissue changes were transient, as there were no differences between the 3 groups in the long term.

Effects of minimally invasive surgical and miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MISMARPE) on the nasal cavity and upper airway: a comparative cohort study. Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2024:S0901-5027(24)00088-2.

Abstract
This study was performed to evaluate the impact on the upper airway and nasal cavity of a new minimally invasive surgical and miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MISMARPE) technique for the treatment of adult patients with transverse maxillary deficiency, in comparison to surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion (SARPE). Computed tomography scans of 21 MISMARPE and 16 SARPE patients were obtained preoperatively (T0) and at the end of the activation period (T1) and analysed. Linear and volumetric measurements were performed in the dental, alveolar, nasal cavity, and oropharynx regions. Generalised estimating equations were used to consider the intervention time and surgery type, and their interaction. In both groups, measurements were increased at T1 (P < 0.001), except for oropharynx volume (P > 0.05). A greater expansion in nasal cavity floor and median palatal suture was shown for MISMARPE when compared to SARPE (P < 0.001), with the same degree of expander activation (P = 0.094). A trapezoidal (coronal plane) and 'V' shape (axial plane) expansion pattern, was observed after MISMARPE. Both surgical techniques were effective for maxillary expansion in adults. However, MISMARPE was performed without osteotomy of the pterygomaxillary suture, in an outpatient setting and with local anaesthesia.

The short- and long-term changes of upper airway and alar in nongrowing patients treated with Mini-Implant Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion (MARPE): a systematic review and meta-analysis. BMC Oral Health 2023; 23:820. [PMID: 37899429 PMCID: PMC10613376 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-023-03344-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2023] [Accepted: 08/22/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to assess the short- and long-term changes in the upper airway and alar width after mini-implant -assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) in nongrowing patients. METHODS Five electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library) were searched up to 2 August, 2023 based on the PICOS principles. The main outcomes were classified into three groups: 1) nasal cavity changes, 2) upper airway changes and 3) alar changes. The mean difference (MD) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used to assess these changes. Heterogeneity tests, subgroup analyses, sensitivity analyses, and publication bias were also analyzed. RESULT Overall, 22 articles were included for data analysis. Nasal cavity width (WMD: 2.05 mm; 95% CI: 1.10, 3.00) and nasal floor width (WMD: 2.13 mm; 95% CI: 1.16, 3.11) increased significantly. While palatopharyngeal volume (WMD: 0.29 cm3, 95% CI: -0.44, 1.01), glossopharyngeal volume (WMD: 0.30 cm3, 95% CI: -0.29, 0.89) and hypopharyngeal volume (WMD: -0.90 cm3; 95% CI: -1.86, 0.06) remained unchanged, nasal cavity volume (WMD: 1.24 cm3, 95% CI: 0.68, 1.81), nasopharyngeal volume (MD: 0.75 cm3, 95% CI: 0.44, 1.06), oropharyngeal volume (WMD: 0.61 cm3, 95% CI: 0.35, 0.87), and total volume of the upper airway (WMD: 1.67 cm3, 95% CI: 0.68, 2.66) increased significantly. Alar width (WMD: 1.47 mm; 95% CI: 0.40, 2.55) and alar base width (WMD: 1.54 mm; 95% CI: 1.21, 1.87) also increased. CONCLUSION MARPE can increase nasal cavity width, nasal cavity volume, nasopharyngeal volume and oropharyngeal volume for nongrowing patients, but has no significant effect on hypopharyngeal volume. In addition, the alar width also increased. However, the studies included in this meta-analysis were mainly retrospective, nonrandomized and small in number, so the findings should be interpreted with caution and high-quality RCTs need to be studied.

Prevalence and Clinical Significance of Incidental Findings in the Maxillofacial Complex of Adolescent Orthodontic Patients: A Retrospective Cone Beam Computed Tomography Analysis. Cureus 2023; 15:e47480. [PMID: 38022275 PMCID: PMC10663048 DOI: 10.7759/cureus.47480] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 10/22/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and severity of incidental findings in the maxillofacial complex of orthodontic patients imaged with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and assign those findings an appropriate clinical significance. METHODOLOGY Incidental findings (IF) were identified in 250 CBCT scans of adolescent orthodontic patients (aged 13-18 years) with a large field-of-view and categorized based on their anatomic location and placed into one of six subgroups based on anatomic region: i) sino-nasal, ii) dentoalveolar, iii) nasooropharyngeal airway, iv) temporomandibular joint, v) neck, vi) calcifications, and vi) miscellaneous findings. Additionally, findings were assigned a clinical significance score based on severity on a scale of mild, moderate and severe. Mild IF was defined as an IF that does not require any further investigation or referral. Moderate IF was defined as an IF that has the tendency to become clinically significant and should be observed periodically. IFs that warrant further investigation and/or intervention were designated as severe. RESULTS The percentage of IFs in sino-nasal and dento-alveolar regions were 44.7% and 19.1% respectively. The percentage of IFs with mild, moderate, and severe clinical significance were 27%, 72%, and 1%, respectively. Out of the IFs involving calcifications, 80.8% were stylohyoid calcifications and <1% were cranial cavity IFs such as petroclinoid calcifications and falx cerebri calcifications. Among the sino-nasal findings, 1.2% were identified as severe. CONCLUSION The sino-nasal region had the highest frequency of IFs. Understanding the prevalence of incidental findings and its clinical relevance is important for clinicians to allow for appropriate monitoring and timely treatment of patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To provide a critical overview of the effect of various orthodontic and/or dentofacial orthopedic interventions on three-dimensional volumetric changes in the upper airway. MATERIALS AND METHODS Four databases were searched for clinical studies concerning 3D volumetric assessments based on CBCT before and after orthodontics interventions. The quality of the studies was assessed using the quality assessment tool of the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute. After the use of inclusion and exclusion criteria, the pre-and post-treatment volumes were used to visualize the effect of various orthodontics interventions. RESULTS A total of 48 studies were included in this review and none of which were RCTs. The quality of all included studies was assessed as medium. Overall, there is a tendency for an increase in airway volumes after various orthodontic interventions, except for studies concerning extraction therapy with fixed appliances in adults, in which both increases and decreases in airway volumes have been reported. CONCLUSION Orthodontic treatment by growth modification and non-extraction therapy with fixed appliances, regardless of the malocclusion, generally showed positive effects on the airway volume. Orthodontic treatment in combination with extractions does not provide an unambiguous insight. A consensus on the methodology of the airway measurement and nomenclature is urgently needed in order to gain insight into the effect of different interventions on three-dimensional airway changes. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Various orthodontic treatments do not negatively influence the upper airway volume. However, extraction therapy in adults should be chosen with caution, especially in subjects belonging to a group susceptible to airway obstruction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transverse deficiencies of the maxillary basal bone have been treated in adult patients using miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) therapy. However, the midpalatal suture's degree of ossification may affect the upper airway dimensions. This study compared the volumetric changes of the total upper, retropalatal, retroglossal airways, and the minimal transverse airway constriction after MARPE therapy in patients with midpalatal suture in the last stages of ossification. METHODS This controlled clinical trial included a total of 20 adult patients (mean age 24.5 ± 6.2 years) with maxillary atresia treated with MARPE. Preoperative (T0) cone-beam computed tomography scans were used to determine the degree of midpalatal suture ossification. Two groups were formed considering the last two stages of sutural ossification "D" or "E" (n = 10 per group). After 120 days of the therapy (T1), cone-beam computed tomography assessments were performed to compare the pre and post-treatment outcomes. The total upper, retropalatal, and retroglossal airways and the minimal transverse airway constriction were evaluated. The three-dimensional reconstruction was performed with OsiriX MD software. The comparisons were carried out using mixed models for repeated measures at fixed time points (α = 0.05). RESULTS Groups D and E showed no significant difference for any of the analyzed parameters (P > 0.05). Both groups showed a statistically significant increase for all airway segments after the treatment with MARPE (P < 0.05). The total upper airway increased (11.6% and 16.1%) for groups D and E, respectively (P = 0.3356). CONCLUSIONS MARPE therapy resulted in dimensional gains of the upper airway for adult patients, irrespective of the intermaxillary sutural degree of ossification.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The objective of this study was to analyze the short-term and long-term effects of miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) and conventional rapid palatal expansion (RPE) appliances on cranial and circummaxillary sutures as compared with a matched control group. METHODS One hundred and eighty cone-beam computed tomography scans for 60 subjects were evaluated for the 3 groups: (1) MARPE (n = 20; aged 13.7 ± 1.74 years), (2) RPE (n = 21; age 13.9 ± 1.14 years), and (3) control (n = 19; age 13.3 ± 1.49 years) at pretreatment (T1), postexpansion (T2), and posttreatment (T3) (T1 to T3: MARPE, 2 years 8 months; RPE, 2 years 9 months; control, 2 years 7 months). Frontonasal suture, frontomaxillary suture, zygomaticomaxillary suture, zygomaticofrontal suture, intermaxillary suture, pterygomaxillary suture, nasomaxillary suture, and zygomaticotemporal suture were measured on the right and left sides for all 3 time labels. In addition, midpalatal suture was measured at the incisor, canine, and molar levels. RESULTS Within-group analysis showed that MARPE and RPE led to a significant increase in the widths of frontonasal, frontomaxillary, intermaxillary, nasomaxillary, and midpalatal suture at incisor, canine, and molar levels at T2 compared with T1. Between-group analysis showed that MARPE and RPE significantly increased the width of the intermaxillary and midpalatal suture at the incisor, canine, and molar compared with controls at T2. In the long term, between-group comparisons showed no significant difference among the 3 groups except that MARPE led to a significant increase in the width of midpalatal suture at incisor, canine, and molar levels compared with RPE and controls at T3. CONCLUSIONS MARPE led to a significant increase in the width of the midpalatal suture at incisor, canine, and molar levels compared with RPE and controls in the long term. There was no difference in the width of other cranial and circummaxillary sutures among the 3 groups in the long term.

Abstract
Dentoskeletal changes in minimally invasive surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion (SARPE) were evaluated using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). This was a prospective study of 30 patients who underwent minimally invasive SARPE performed under local anaesthesia plus sedation by the same surgeon, in an ambulatory setting. Pre- and postoperative CBCT images were obtained for each patient. A statistically significant increase in the linear transverse dimensions of the maxilla occurred systematically. In the canine region, a mean increase of 5.84 mm occurred at the apex level and 7.82 mm at the crown level. These dimensions were 4.83 mm and 7.68 mm, respectively, in the molar region. The cross-sectional area of the maxilla increased by a mean 12.9 mm2 at the palate level and 23.3 mm2 at the crown level. Dental inclination to the buccal aspect was detected (mean 6.1° at the canines and 8.4° at the first molars). The alveolar process tipped buccally 10° at the molar level. Nasal width increased a mean of 3.0 mm at the canine level. Through a three-dimensional analysis, this study found that minimally invasive SARPE was effective in the correction of transverse maxillary discrepancies> 5 mm in non-growing patients. Although dental inclination to the buccal aspect occurred, significant expansion of the maxilla at the skeletal and dentoalveolar levels was confirmed.

Abstract
To date, most dentoalveolar deformities are associated with bad habits such as thumb sucking, tongue sticking out, and so on. According to the authors, protrusion of the tongue is normal in newborns, in which the tongue lies between the gingival pads, and the lower jaw is stabilized by the facial muscles during swallowing. With the eruption of temporary teeth, this physiological phenomenon disappears. The authors pointed out that there are such concepts as «simple tongue push» and «complex tongue push». The first relates to open bite push-outs. The second is observed in children with an open bite, as well as with respiratory complications and / or with a history of chronic diseases of the nasopharynx. The act of swallowing in the physiological sense is divided into 3 stages: oral, pharyngeal and esophageal. Each stage is characterized by different positions of the tongue in the oral cavity. Orthodontic hardware treatment of such patients is aimed at eliminating these habits, as well as correcting the bite. Although many studies have been conducted since 1965, to this day, aimed at studying the tongue protrusion in infantile swallowing, as well as in various malocclusion deformities, the authors found that these studies have shortcomings. For each patient, the shape, size, as well as the trajectory of movements may vary due to anatomical features (short frenulum of the tongue). In this review article, the authors consider such concepts as the adaptive ability of the tongue during infantile swallowing, as well as its trajectory of movements when using various methods of hardware treatment; various orthodontic devices for the treatment of tongue misalignments, their components and their purposes are described. The current classification, main characteristics of this pathological condition and its connection with the dentoalveolar system are considered. Based on the study, it can be concluded that there are several directions in the treatment of infantile swallowing. One of these areas is hardware treatment in the form of the use of plates with a flap for the tongue.

Microimplant-assisted rapid palatal expansion is increasingly used clinically; however, the effect on the upper airway volume in patients with maxillary transverse deficiency has not been thoroughly evaluated yet. The following electronic databases were searched up to August 2022: Medline via Ovid, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, and ProQuest. The reference lists of related articles were also reviewed by manual search. The Revised Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool for randomized trials (ROB2) and the Risk of Bias in non-randomized Studies of Interventions (ROBINS-I) tool were used to evaluate the risks of bias of the included studies. The mean differences (MD) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of changes in nasal cavity and upper airway volume were analyzed using a random-effects model, and subgroup and sensitivity analyses were also performed. Two reviewers independently completed the process of screening studies, extracting data, and assessing the quality of studies. In total, twenty-one studies met the inclusion criteria. After assessing the full texts, only thirteen studies were included, with nine studies selected for quantitative synthesis. Oropharynx volume increased significantly after immediate expansion (WMD: 3156.84; 95% CI: 83.63, 6230.06); however, there was no significant change in nasal volume (WMD: 2527.23; 95% CI: -92.53, 5147.00) and nasopharynx volume (WMD: 1138.29; 95% CI: -52.04, 2328.61). After retention a period, significant increases were found in nasal volume (WMD: 3646.27; 95% CI: 1082.77, 6209.77) and nasopharynx volume (WMD: 1021.10; 95% CI: 597.11, 1445.08). However, there was no significant change after retention in oropharynx volume (WMD: 789.26; 95% CI: -171.25, 1749.76), palatopharynx volume (WMD: 795.13; 95% CI: -583.97, 2174.22), glossopharynx volume (WMD: 184.50; 95% CI: -1745.97, 2114.96), and hypopharynx volume (WMD: 39.85; 95% CI: -809.77, 889.46). MARPE appears to be linked with long-term increases in nasal and nasopharyngeal volume. However, high-quality clinical trials are required to further verify the effects of MARPE treatment on the upper airway.

BMC Oral Health 2022; 22:529. [PMID: 36424571 PMCID: PMC9686034 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-022-02581-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2022] [Accepted: 11/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To date, the effects of different activation rates of miniscrew-supported expanders on the airway have not been compared. Hence, the purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate and compare the effects of slow and rapid miniscrew-supported maxillary expansion on the upper airway dimensions using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). METHODS Data of 20 patients (Age 12 to 16 years old) treated using miniscrew-supported expanders at the Faculty of Dentistry, Alexandria University was collected. The patients were equally divided into two groups according to the activation protocol; slow maxillary expansion (SME): activation once every other day, and rapid maxillary expansion (RME): activation twice daily. CBCT scans obtained pre-expansion and 5 months post-expansion were used to evaluate the changes in the upper airway dimensions. Comparisons between the two time points within each group were done using paired samples t-test. SME and RME groups were compared using independent samples t-test. Significance level was set at p < 0.05. RESULTS Both groups showed a significant increase in anterior, middle, and posterior nasal cavity width. SME resulted in significantly greater increase of the anterior nasal cavity width than RME (Mean difference between the groups, 2.64 mm; 95% CI, 0.83, 4.45; p = 0.007). The dimensions of the retropalatal and retroglossal airways did not change significantly in either group. Both groups resulted in a significant increase of maxillary width, palatal width, and inter-molar width. RME showed a significantly larger increase of inter-molar width than SME (Mean difference between the groups, - 2.44 mm; 95% CI, - 3.88, - 1.00; p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS The use of either a slow or rapid activation protocol is effective in expanding the nasomaxillary complex, with greater expansion achieved in the anterior section of the nasal cavity using the slow rate. However, the expander design employed in the current study does not affect the dimensions of the retropalatal or retroglossal airways.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the effectiveness and side effects of miniscrew-assisted rapid maxillary expansion (MARME) with conventional rapid maxillary expansion (RME) in the treatment of transverse maxillary deficiency. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). We searched in the MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Central databases. The quality of included RCTs was evaluated using the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool. The primary outcome was the extent of dentoskeletal expansion achieved. Secondary outcomes were the dental and periodontal side effects. We calculated summary weighted mean differences (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) using random-effects meta-analysis. RESULTS Six RCTs involving 287 participants met the inclusion criteria. Compared to conventional RME, MARME was associated with a greater palatal suture opening (mm) measured at the anterior nasal spine (MD = 1.21, 95% CI 0.75 to 1.66), first premolars (MD = 1.13, 95% CI 0.72 to 1.55), first molars (MD = 1.18, 95% CI 0.28 to 2.09), and posterior nasal spine (MD = 1.14, 95% CI 0.30 to 1.98), increased palatal width (mm) at the first molars (MD = 0.75, 95% CI 0.30 to 1.20), and reduced buccal inclination (degrees) of the first premolars (MD = - 6.06, 95% CI - 10.36 to - 1.76) and first molars (MD = - 3.17, 95% CI - 5.35 to - 0.99). CONCLUSIONS MARME is associated with the following advantages over traditional tooth-borne RME: increased palatal suture opening, increased palatal width, and reduced buccal tooth inclination. REGISTRATION This study is registered with PROSPERO, CRD42021256750. CLINICAL RELEVANCE MARME may be preferred over conventional RME in cases with fused mid-palatal sutures or where further buccal tooth inclination is undesirable.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the long-term effects of mini-screw-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE), rapid palatal expansion (RPE), and controls on the nasal cavity with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 180 CBCT scans that were part of a previous randomized trial were evaluated retrospectively for 60 patients at pretreatment (T1), postexpansion (T2), and posttreatment (T3). Patients were randomly assigned into 3 groups: MARPE, RPE, and controls (time period T1 to T3; MARPE: 2 years 8 months; RPE: 2 years 9 months; control: 2 years 7 months). Nasal height, nasal length, nasion-ANS height, ANS-PNS length, pyriform height, and nasal septal deviation angle were measured. The changes in alar width, alar base width, anterior nasal cavity width, posterior nasal cavity width, maxillary intermolar width, and maxillary intercanine width were also evaluated. RESULTS The alar base width, posterior nasal cavity width, anterior nasal cavity width, maxillary intercanine width, and maxillary intermolar width significantly increased (P < .05), and the nasal septal deviation angle significantly decreased (P < .05) in both the MARPE and RPE groups as compared with controls in the short term. In the long term, the nasal septal deviation angle was significantly decreased (P < .05) in the MARPE and RPE groups as compared with controls, and the posterior nasal cavity width was significantly increased (P < .05) in the MARPE group compared with the RPE group and controls. CONCLUSIONS MARPE and RPE led to a significant increase in the nasal cavity and alar base width compared with controls in the short term. In the long term, a significant increase was observed only in the posterior nasal cavity width with MARPE. Both MARPE and RPE led to a minimal decrease in nasal septal deviation angle in comparison with controls.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to use cone-beam computed tomography to compare immediate and long-term effects of conventional and miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) appliances on root resorption in 2 treatment groups and a control group. METHODS One hundred eighty cone-beam computed tomography images of 60 patients at 3 time points were assessed: initial, postexpansion, and debond. The patients were divided into 3 groups: control (n = 19), rapid palatal expansion (RPE) appliance (n = 21), and MARPE (n = 20). The period of initial to debond varied for the 3 groups: 2 years, 7 months for controls; 2 years, 9 months for RPE; and 2 years, 8 months for MARPE. The length of mesiobuccal, distobuccal, and palatal root of the maxillary first molar (1M); the buccal root of maxillary first premolar; and second premolar were measured. The inclination of the 1M, intercuspal width (ICW), interroot width (IRW), ICW/IRW ratio, maxillary skeletal width were measured in all 3 groups at different time points. RESULTS Immediately after expansion, RPE and MARPE groups showed a significant increase in the molar inclination, ICW, ICW/IRW ratio, and maxillary skeletal width compared with controls at postexpansion. However, the long-term comparison did not show any significant difference for root resorption and expansion parameters between the 3 groups, except the ICW/IRW ratio, which was higher in MARPE than controls at debond. A significant negative association was observed between the length of the mesiobuccal root of 1M and molar inclination (β = -0.025; 95% confidence interval, -0.050 to 0.0008; P <0.05). The expansion of ICW and IRW did not show a significant association with root resorption. CONCLUSIONS The long-term outcomes showed no difference in the amount of root resorption between the RPE, MARPE, and control groups. Molar inclination showed a significant negative association with the length of the mesiobuccal root of the 1M.

Abstract
Class III malocclusion when accompanied with transverse and vertical maxillomandibular discrepancies such as posterior crossbite and vertical open bite leads to complicated orthodontic treatment. Proper diagnosis and treatment planning are important in such patients for a successful orthodontic outcome. A common treatment approach for patients with class III malocclusion is to wait for the completion of growth and plan orthognathic surgery in conjunction with orthodontic treatment. However, performing no treatment and waiting for growth to be completed during teen years could lead to negative effects on the patient's self-esteem. In such cases, a non-surgical option with skeletal anchorage could be used to correct the malocclusion without surgical intervention. This case report shows that in patients with severe class III malocclusion, skeletal anchorage can be used for the correction of anterior crossbite with intermaxillary elastics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to evaluate the short-term and long-term effects of tooth-anchored and bone-anchored maxillary expansion appliances on the condyle-fossa relationship, compared to those in a matched control group. Another objective of the study was to evaluate whether the amount of dental and skeletal expansion is correlated with the condyle-fossa relationship. METHODS A total of 180 cone-beam computed tomography scans (CBCTs) for 60 subjects were analyzed for 3 groups: 1) bone-anchored maxillary expansion (BA; n = 20); 2) tooth-anchored maxillary expansion (TA; n = 21); and 3) controls (n = 19) at pretreatment, post-expansion (T2), and post-treatment (T3). The posterior joint space (PJS), superior joint space (SJS), anterior joint space, angle of mandibular condyle, distance of the condyle to the mid-sagittal plane, the inter-molar cuspal width, and the skeletal maxillary width (SMW) were measured for all 3 groups. RESULTS Both BA and TA led to a significant increase in inter-molar cuspal width, SMW, and TA led to a significant increase in PJS as compared to controls at T2. However, there was no significant difference in the joint spaces between the BA, TA, and control groups in the long term. Both the BA and TA groups showed a significant increase in SMW at T3 compared to the control group. Molar extrusion showed a weak correlation with PJS at T2 (r = 0.46) and T3 (r = 0.51), and a moderate correlation with SJS at T2 (r = 0.61) and T3 (r = 0.69). CONCLUSIONS TA led to a significant increase in PJS, compared to a control group, at T3, but there was no long-term difference in the condyle-fossa relationship among the BA, TA, and control groups. Molar extrusion showed moderate correlation with SJS and PJS.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between the changes in respiratory function and dimensions of the nasomaxillary complex (NMC) and upper airway (UA) compartments after nasomaxillary skeletal expansion (NMSE) treatment for pediatric patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS Nonobese OSA patients (mean age, 13.6 ± 2.9 years; mean body mass index, 18.1 ± 3.0 kg/m2); mean apnea-hypopnea index (AHI, 7.0 ± 5.4 events/h) presenting with transverse nasomaxillary constriction were evaluated before and after NMSE using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), home sleep test, and modified pediatric sleep questionnaire (m-PSQ). Paired t tests were performed to examine the treatment-related changes in all the parameters, and a multiple regression analysis adjusted for age and sagittal and vertical skeletal patterns was conducted to determine the dimensional parameters to affect the functional improvement. RESULTS Among 26 patients, NMSE treatment significantly increased NMC dimensions at all tested levels and all UA compartments in CBCT, except glossopharyngeal airway. Concurrently, AHI, oxygen desaturation index, the lowest oxygen saturation (LSaO2), flow limitation (FL), snoring, and m-PSQ were significantly improved. AHI reduction was correlated with UA enlargement with no correlation with NMC expansion, whereas FL reduction was affected by NMC expansion. The minimal cross-sectional area was the most predictive of functional improvement, presenting correlations with AHI, LSaO2, and m-PSQ. CONCLUSION NMSE can be a good treatment for pediatric OSA patients when applied to enhance the nasal and pharyngeal airway patencies beyond the NMC, ultimately to improve pharyngeal collapsibility as well as nasal airflow.
