Abstract:Introduction: In the context of rapid maxillary expansion, transverse deficiencies are the main predictors of dentofacial deformities with high prevalence in dental practice. In this sense, the techniques of surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion (SARME) and non-surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion (NSARME) are used in order to correct maxillary development through palatal disjunction. Objective: to analyze the main considerations of rapid maxillary expansion, showing its main indications, cont… Show more
