“…With the development of bonding procedures, new appliance designs have been reported (Howe, 1982;Spolyar, 1984;Alpern and Yurosko, 1987). However, insufficient data are available to compare their effects to the original banded expander.…”

SUMMARY Various investigations have mentioned the use of a bonded maxillary expansion appliance. It was postulated that a full coverage of the occlusal surfaces by acrylic would remove interferences during the lateral displacement of the two maxillary bones and would lessen the resistance to maxillary expansion. The first objective of this study was to compare two appliances, a bonded and a banded Minne expander using a continuous force of two pounds, which would produce a slow maxillary expansion. The second objective was to evaluate the ratio between the skeletal and dental response to slow maxillary expansion, and to compare these results to those obtained with a rapid maxillary expansion procedure.Each experimental group consisted of 5 patients, aged between 8 and 12 years wearing the two different appliances. Prior to treatment they were implanted according to the Bjork technique. The slow expansion period lasted 7 to 15 weeks followed by a retention period of 12 weeks. Post-retention observations followed 12 weeks after the end of retention.No significant difference was found between banded and bonded appliances in regard to dental and skeletal expansion and relapse. The amount of skeletal versus dental movements equalled results obtained with rapid maxillary expansion. The relapse tendency appeared lower than with rapid maxillary expansion.

“…Inferior displacement of the maxilla is decreased with the use of bonded appliance as it covers the maxSharma and Chopra illary posterior occlusobuccal segments. The appliance serves not only as an expansion device but also intrudes on the freeway space through the vertical thickness, having a splint like action [1]. The appliance transfers an apically directed force on the maxillary and mandibular teeth through a passive stretch of the musculature.…”

“…Since then, different appliances have been suggested for hemi maxillary separation, all featuring modifications, especially in the type of material and anchoring, and different activation modes. 5,10,12,14,18,22,23 Bonded rapid maxillary expansion appliance have been proposed to control the side effects of RME, which may be associated with adverse increases in anterior facial height, especially in individuals with a predominantly vertical growth pattern and a tendency towards open bite. 2,10,17,18,20,22,24 No consensus has been found in the literature, however, concerning the RMErelated vertical and anteroposterior effects produced with this type of appliance.…”

Introduction: Bonded rapid maxillary expansion appliances have been suggested to control increases in the vertical dimension of the face after rapid maxillary expansion but there is still no consensus in the literature concerning its actual effectiveness. Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the vertical and anteroposterior cephalometric changes associated with maxillary expansion performed using bonded rapid maxillary expansion appliances. Methods: The sample consisted of 25 children of both genders, aged between 6 and 10 years old, with skeletal posterior crossbite. After maxillary expansion, the expansion appliance itself was used for fixed retention. Were analyzed lateral teleradiographs taken prior to treatment onset and after removal of the expansion appliance. Conclusion: Based on the results, it can be concluded that the use of bonded rapid maxillary expansion appliance did not significantly alter the children's vertical and anteroposterior cephalometric measurements.
