J Oral Rehabil 2023; 50:1432-1438. [PMID: 37614097 DOI: 10.1111/joor.13576] [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: 11/24/2022] [Revised: 04/21/2023] [Accepted: 08/09/2023] [Indexed: 08/25/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Unilateral surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion (U-SARME) is a successful method for correction of true unilateral posterior crossbite (TUPC). OBJECTIVES This retrospective preliminary study aimed to evaluate the position and morphology of condyles in TUPC cases and the effects of U-SARME on condyle with the help of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). METHODS Fifteen patients (mean age: 18.69 ± 1.59 years) who were diagnosed as TUPC and undergone U-SARME were selected. Preoperative (T0) and after 6-month retention (T1) DICOM data of CBCT images were evaluated with MIMICs version 19.0 software. Condylar morphology (medio-lateral and antero-posterior dimensions) and position (anterior, posterior, medial and lateral joint spaces, frontal/axial axis angles, the ratio of posterior to anterior joint space and the percentage of posterior to anterior joint space) were evaluated. Student's t-test was used for intergroup (crossbite, normal) comparisons. Paired-samples t-test was used for intra-group comparisons (p = .05). RESULTS There were no positional or dimensional asymmetry of the condyles between crossbite and normal sides initially and after expansion. Regarding T0-T1 changes, while significant increase was determined in medial (0.3 ± 0.29 mm; p = .001) and superior (0.39 ± 0.7 mm; p = .045) joint spaces on crossbite side, posterior (0.79 ± 0.99 mm; p = .008), superior (0.5 ± 0.79 mm; p = .029) and lateral joint spaces (0.31 ± 0.54 mm; p = .042) presented significant increases on normal side. However, no significant changes were found between crossbite and normal sides at T0 and T1. CONCLUSIONS Condyles were symmetrical in true unilateral posterior crossbite cases and the symmetry were not disrupted following U-SARME.

[PMID: 33762139 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajodo.2020.02.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2019] [Revised: 02/01/2020] [Accepted: 02/01/2020] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION C-expanders are tissue- and bone-borne maxillary expanders that are anchored by 6 orthodontic miniscrews, 3 on each side of the palate. The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of C-expanders on the circummaxillary sutures and bucco-palatal axis of teeth in 3-dimensional finite element analyses when anchor screw vectors are different. METHODS Five expansion models were studied on the basis of the vertical positions of anchor screws on the palate. Anchor screws for models A, B, and C were placed symmetrically at 4 mm, 7 mm, and 15 mm below the cementoenamel junction (CEJ), respectively. Anchor screws for models D and E were placed asymmetrically at 4 mm and 15 mm below CEJ and 7 mm and 15 mm below CEJ, respectively. Stress, displacement, and angular changes of the bone and teeth were measured in elastoplastic behavior models using a static-nonlinear simulation in an implicit method. RESULTS Symmetrical and asymmetrical anchor screw placement with different vertical vectors were compared using finite element analyses on 5 models. CONCLUSIONS Using different vectors of anchor screws for C-expanders does change the pattern of palatal expansion (null hypothesis was rejected). The current investigation presents a promising future of controlled asymmetric skeletal maxillary expansion when asymmetric maxillary architecture needs to be corrected for successful orthodontic outcomes without involving orthognathic surgeries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE The rapid maxillary expansion is accepted as the gold standard for the treatment of unilateral posterior crossbite in growing children. This study used cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to evaluate the effects of a modified asymmetric rapid maxillary expansion (ARME) appliance on the upper airway volumes. MATERIALS AND METHODS A modified ARME appliance was used on 12 adolescent male patients (mean age: 13.92 ± 0.82 years) with a class I skeletal relationship and posterior unilateral crossbite. Lateral cephalometric measurements and upper airway volume were evaluated using CBCT images. The posterior airway volumes of the oropharyngeal and nasopharyngeal airways were measured. RESULTS Cephalometric measurements showed significant (P < 0.05) posterior rotation of the mandible. There was no significant movement of the maxilla according to the cranial base on the sagittal plane. Nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal airway volumes increased significantly (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The results of this study demonstrate that treatment with the modified ARME has no significant effect on the maxilla but may increase the upper airway volume.

Salivary MRP-8/14 and the presence of periodontitis-associated bacteria in children with bonded maxillary expansion treatment. Clin Oral Investig 2020; 25:3767-3774. [PMID: 33270150 PMCID: PMC8137619 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-020-03706-6] [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: 07/05/2020] [Accepted: 11/24/2020] [Indexed: 10/31/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate changes in saliva concentration of the inflammatory marker MRP-8/14 and the presence of some periodontitis-associated bacteria in patients with mixed dentition treated with a rigid acrylic, bonded maxillary expander. METHODS Fifteen patients in mixed dentition treated with a bonded palatal expander were enrolled in this longitudinal study. Saliva samples were taken before the therapy, as well as in 2 weeks and 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after the beginning of the therapy. In each sample, the levels of MRP-8/14 were determined by ELISA and the presence of 11 bacteria was detected by PCR followed by DNA-DNA hybridization. RESULTS Salivary concentration of MRP-8/14 and the amount of Tannerella forsythia, Treponema denticola, and Eikenella corrodens were significantly increased during treatment with bonded maxillary expander. These changes were transient and the maximal levels of MRP-8/14 and periodontitis-associated pathogens were observed 6-9 months after the beginning of the therapy. CONCLUSION Therapy with bonded maxillary results in higher MRP-8/14 levels and increased prevalence of some periodontitis-associated bacteria, namely T. forsythia, T. denticola, and E. corrodens. The results suggest the detection of salivary MRP-8/14 levels may be a potential tool to reflect the oral health status in children with fixed orthodontic treatment. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Our data suggest that the treatment with bonded maxillary expander might influence the oral health status and should be accompanied by the careful control of the oral health during the therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate pharyngeal airway and maxillary sinus volumes following symmetric rapid maxillary expansion (RME) and asymmetric rapid maxillary expansion (ARME) treatment using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). MATERIALS AND METHODS The study consisted of 60 patients presenting to the orthodontics clinic with an indication that they required symmetric or asymmetric rapid maxillary expansion treatment. Individuals were included if they were aged 12-15 years and had symmetric (RME group; 14 girls, 16 boys) or asymmetric (ARME group; 16 girls, 14 boys) maxillary deficiency. Maxillary sinus volume (mm3) and pharyngeal airway volume (upper, lower, and total; mm3) were evaluated using CBCT records. The parameters were compared before treatment (T1) and after 3 months in retention (T2). RESULTS All measurements at T2 were increased significantly compared with T1 in the RME group (P < .05). In the ARME group, changes in the lower pharyngeal airway and the nonaffected maxillary sinus volumes (non-affected side of maxillary sinus volumes) were not significant; however, the other measurements increased significantly from T1 to T2 (P < .05). Intergroup comparisons revealed that total pharyngeal airway volume and total maxillary sinus volume changes were significantly greater in the RME group. CONCLUSIONS Pharyngeal airway and maxillary sinus volumes increased with both RME and ARME treatment. Both were found to be effective for treating transverse maxillary deficiency.

Prevalence of posterior alveolar bony dehiscence and fenestration in adults with posterior crossbite: a CBCT study. Prog Orthod 2020; 21:8. [PMID: 32173764 PMCID: PMC7073349 DOI: 10.1186/s40510-020-00308-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2019] [Accepted: 02/20/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Correcting posterior crossbite in adult patients using nonsurgical methods may involve buccolingual tooth movement. Knowing the extent of the pretreatment alveolar bony dehiscences and fenestrations in the posterior area will aid orthodontists in planning posterior crossbite patients accordingly to minimize posttreatment bony defects. Before the advent of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), observing buccal and lingual bony defects was not possible unless other treatment needs allowed for an open-flap procedure. With CBCT technology, we can now detect posterior defects with some accuracy. The aim of the present study was to determine the prevalence of posterior alveolar bony dehiscence and fenestration in adults with posterior crossbite compared with noncrossbite adults. Methods The study group consisted of pretreatment CBCTs of 28 samples with at least one or more teeth in posterior crossbite or edgebite. The comparison group consisted of pretreatment CBCTs of 28 samples with no posterior crossbite or edgebite. All buccal and lingual sides of the upper and lower posterior segments were measured for the presence of dehiscence, fenestration, and combined total bony defects. Results The prevalence of total bony defects was higher in the study group (61.6%) than in the comparison group (52.1%) (p < 0.05). While there was no difference in prevalence between crossbite teeth in the study group and noncrossbite teeth in the comparison group, the noncrossbite teeth in the study group showed a higher prevalence of total bony defects, dehiscence, and fenestration than the noncrossbite teeth in the comparison group (p < 0.05). The prevalence of dehiscence was higher in the study group (41.2%) than in the comparison group (33.3%) (p < 0.05). Neither the prevalence of fenestration nor the mean bony defect size showed statistical significance between the two groups. First premolars showed a higher prevalence of dehiscence than other posterior teeth, and maxillary posterior teeth had a higher prevalence of fenestration than mandibular posterior teeth. Among the maxillary posterior teeth, second premolars had the least amount of fenestration. Conclusions Adult subjects with posterior crossbite had a higher prevalence of total bony defects and dehiscence, especially buccal dehiscence, in the posterior region than subjects with no posterior crossbite. This was due to the high prevalence observed in the noncrossbite teeth in posterior crossbite subjects.

Abstract
Background The objective of this study was to evaluate the dentoalveolar effects and the changes of buccal cortical bone in the posterior area after expansion obtained with TMA auxiliary expansion arch in adult patients. Material and Methods A retrospective analysis of CT scans of 13 patients (6 male, 7 female) treated at a private clinic, taken immediately before and after the use of an auxiliary expansion archwire, was performed. Mean age at installation of TMA auxiliary expansion arch was 29.23 years (s.d.=9.13) and the mean age when the auxiliary arch was removed was 29.52 years (s.d.=9.16). Mean time of the use of the TMA auxiliary expansion arch was 0.29 years (s.d.=0.09). The patients used fixed appliances and after leveling and alignment, a TMA auxiliary expansion arch was installed, combined with the primary 0.017x0.025-inch thermoactivated Ni-Ti archwire. CBCT scans were taken at T1 and T2. Linear and angular measurements regarding the positioning of maxillary molar, premolars and canines were performed. Intragroup comparison of the variables at T1 and T2 was performed with dependent t tests. Results There was statistically significant transverse increase and buccal inclination of all teeth. The cortical bone showed adaptability and displacement in the same direction of tooth movement, but in smaller amounts. Conclusions The auxiliary expansion arch proved to be effective to correct dentoalveolar constriction in adult patients, by increasing the buccal dental inclination with larger displacements than the bone crest adaptation and with significant transverse gains.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Unilateral posterior crossbite is classified as true unilateral posterior crossbite (TUPC) or functional posterior crossbite (FPC). The differential diagnosis between TUPC and FPC is of utmost importance for the decision of expansion protocol because conventional expansion methods have some shortcomings for TUPC. The aim of this retrospective study was to 3-dimensionally evaluate the effects of asymmetric rapid maxillary expansion combined with unilateral osteotomy. METHODS This study sample comprised 16 patients (mean age 18.38 ± 1.45) with TUPC. A Hyrax acrylic cap included the maxillary premolars and molars on the constricted side, and all teeth up to the central incisor were included on the other side to increase anchorage. Unilateral surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion was performed and included anterior (aperture piriformis), lateral (zygomatic buttress), and posterior (pterygomaxillary junction) osteotomies on the constricted side and separation of the midpalatal suture. Cone-beam computed tomographic scans taken just before the operation and after 6 months of retention were used to assess skeletal, dental, and periodontal changes. RESULTS Expansion was seen on both sides; however, the amount of expansion and tipping was higher on the osteotomy+ side. Because the canines were not included in the acrylic cap on the osteotomy+ side, they did not present the same amount of tipping as the ipsilateral posterior teeth. More teeth were affected periodontally on the osteotomy- side; however, there were no clinically significant differences between the osteotomy+ and osteotomy- sides (mean differences range +0.54 to -0.57 mm). The aperture piriformis width increased significantly on the osteotomy+ side. CONCLUSIONS The treatment mechanics had no clinically detrimental effects on the supporting alveolar bone of the maxilla on either side, and it was thought to be effective in cases with TUPC; however, case selection is crucial.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with its growth factors in minimizing the side effects of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) on the periodontal tissue of anchoring teeth using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). MATERIALS AND METHODS A randomized, split-mouth clinical trial was conducted on 18 patients aged 12-16 years (14 ± 1.65) with a skeletal maxillary constriction who underwent RME using a Hyrax appliance. The sample was randomly divided into two groups: intervention and control sides. PRP was prepared and injected on the buccal aspect of supporting teeth in the intervention group. High-resolution CBCT imaging (H-CBCT) was carried out preoperatively (T0) and after 3 months of retention (T1) to study the buccal bone plate thickness (BBPT) and buccal bone crest level (BBCL) of anchoring teeth. Changes induced by expansion were evaluated using paired sample t-test (P < .05). RESULTS Results showed that there was no significant difference in BBPT and BBCL between the two groups after RME (P > .05). The prevalence of dehiscence and fenestrations was increased at (T1) in both groups and the percentage was higher in the PRP group. CONCLUSIONS RME induced vertical and horizontal bone loss. PRP did not minimize alveolar defects after RME.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore risk factors for contact between the incisive canal (IC) and upper central incisors (U1) and to evaluate the relationship between contact and root resorption using cone-beam computer tomography (CBCT). MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study used CBCT data of 33 patients treated by a senior orthodontist. Anterior teeth were retracted with mini-implants, and CBCT scans were taken before and after retraction. IC height and width, U1 lingual movement, and U1-IC distance and root length decrease were compared between contact and noncontact groups. RESULTS Sixteen U1 roots in 11 patients touched the IC. The contact group had lower positioned ICs (2.86 ± 1.10 mm) than the noncontact group (4.07 ± 1.72 mm). The middle of the U1 roots showed more lingual movement to ICs in the contact group (2.30 ± 1.20 mm) than in the noncontact group (1.07 ± 1.16 mm). Right central incisors were closer to the IC than were the left. Root length decreased significantly more in the contact group (2.63 ± 0.93 mm) than in the noncontact group (1.14 ± 0.83 mm). CONCLUSIONS There is a risk for the U1 root to contact the IC during anterior retraction when the IC is lower positioned. This contact might cause external apical root resorption.

Abstract
Objective The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of tooth-borne acrylic-bonded rapid maxillary expansion (RME) appliances with or without the anterior teeth anchorage on the skeletal and dentoalveolar structures, as well as soft tissues. Methods This study included 44 patients who were treated with two different tooth-borne bonded acrylic RME appliances. Lateral cephalometric radiographs were taken before the treatment (T0) and in the post-retention (T1) phase of the RME treatment. The posterior-bonded RME appliance group and full-bonded RME appliance group were created as the two different groups of treatment. The following statistical analyses were performed: intra- and inter-group comparisons were made using the paired t-test, Wilcoxon test, independent t-test, and Mann-Whitney U-test for normal and non-normal distribution data. Results Significant increases were observed in R1-A, R1-ANS, R1-U1, R1-AR, R1-St, R1-Li, and R1-Pn in both groups. R1-PNS, R1-Ls, R1-Sn, and R1-B' were found to be significantly larger at T1 than at T0 in the posterior-bonded RME appliance group. R2-A, R2-ANS, R2-L1, R2-A', and R2-Pn were significantly larger at T1 than at T0 in the full-bonded RME appliance group. The R2-A' was significantly different between the groups. Conclusion The soft tissue A point appears to be the most important differing matter between the two different RME appliances, and a full acrylic-bonded RME appliance may be beneficial for subjects with a maxillary retrognathic profile.
