“…The present case illustrates a successful maxillary expansion in a young adult with a complete disjunction of the midpalatal suture from the anterior nasal spine to posterior nasal spine, classified as type I palatal split pattern 20 . The palatal split pattern has been also evaluated for SARPE technique, and some previous literature on SARPE shows the prevalence of a type II pattern, consisting of an incomplete disjunction of the midpalatal suture 20 .…”

“…The palatal split pattern has been also evaluated for SARPE technique, and some previous literature on SARPE shows the prevalence of a type II pattern, consisting of an incomplete disjunction of the midpalatal suture 20 . Furthermore, the achievement of a type I pattern has been associated to an additional surgical releasing of pterygoid plates 15 …”

Introduction: Etiology of dental crowding may be related to arch constriction in diverse dimensions, and an appropriate manipulation of arch perimeter by intervening in basal bone discrepancies cases, may be a key for crowding relief, especially when incisors movement is limited due to underlying pathology, periodontal issues or restrictions related to soft tissue profile. Objectives: This case report illustrates a 24-year old woman, with maxillary transverse deficiency, upper and lower arches crowding, Class II, division 1, subdivision right relationship, previous upper incisors traumatic episode and straight profile. A non-surgical and non-extraction treatment approach was feasible due to the miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion technique (MARPE). Methods: The MARPE appliance consisted of a conventional Hyrax expander supported by four orthodontic miniscrews. A slow expansion protocol was adopted, with an overall of 40 days of activation and a 3-month retention period. Intrusive traction miniscrew-anchored mechanics were used for correcting the Class II subdivision relationship, managing lower arch perimeter and midline deviation before including the upper central incisors. Results: Post-treatment records show an intermolar width increase of 5 mm, bilateral Class I molar and canine relationships, upper and lower crowding resolution, coincident dental midlines and proper intercuspation. Conclusions: The MARPE is an effective treatment approach for managing arch-perimeter deficiencies related to maxillary transverse discrepancies in adult patients.

“…[15][16][17][18] Only recently, conebeam computed tomography (CBCT) studies on the subject of SARME have started appearing, and this is the first CBCT study to investigate the effect of pterygoid disjunction on the treatment outcome. 19,20 The aims of this study were to compare and evaluate the immediate dentoskeletal effects of 2 distinct surgical techniques used for SARME.…”

“…The analysis of the craniofacial skeletal changes based on computed tomography scans is one of the assessment methods applicable to surgical treatment outcomes [15][16][17]. Quantification of treatment outcomes based on x-ray images may be difficult due to the inability to achieve reproducible projection and the presence of artefacts.…”
