Objective: To evaluate the root resorption after rapid maxillary expansion (RME) via cone-beam
computed tomography (CBCT).
Materials and Methods: Records of 25 patients who had undergone RME with tooth-borne
banded expander were obtained from the archive of the orthodontic department. CBCT data were
reconstructed with surface and volume rendering, and the volumetric images were manipulated to
display the root surfaces from various orientations. On these three-dimensional images, permanent
first molars and first and second premolars were segmented, and their roots were isolated.

Objective: To evaluate the changes in cortical bone thickness, alveolar bone
height, and the incidence of dehiscence and fenestration in the surrounding
alveolar bone of posterior teeth after rapid maxillary expansion (RME) treatment
using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: The CBCT records of
20 subjects (9 boys, mean age: 13.97 ± 1.17 years; 11 girls, mean age: 13.53 ±
2.12 year) that underwent RME were selected from the archives. CBCT scans had
been taken before (T1) and after (T2) the RME. Moreover, 10 of the subjects had
6-month retention (T3) records. We used th ...Daha fazlası
