The second CBCT was repeated 10 months after the insertion of the two appliances; this interval was chosen by estimating 1 month for the activation and 9 months for the stabilization of the RME. Some variations should be imputed to the growth during this period, although the extent is assessable as non-significant 30, 31 . The type of expander employed was a Veltri “New REP” 23 without palatal arms to be able to examine skeletal effects and to avoid distorsions on results determined by tipping action on adjacent teeth. In the studied interval a significant palatal volume increase was achieved in both groups; when RME was anchored on permanent teeth a slightly higher variation was recorded (10.78% vs 9.89% on average). Mandibular molar decompensation phenomenon following the transverse maxillary expansion was first investigated by Lima et al. by means of plaster model measurements 32 . Until now, to our knowledge, no-one has investigated mandibular molar decompensation by means of volumetric tomoghaphy. In a recent study that used CBCTs, Kartalian et al. noticed a buccal dento-alveolar tipping of 5.6° following RME treatment: since buccal teeth inclination was unchanged between pre and post treatment (
