Transverse Stability after RPE in y Cleft Palate Patients

Recommendations

Info

Transverse Deficiency • At bbirth, h transverse width of palate is normal (Robertson et al. 1975) • At 3 months, , ppalate begins to collapse around cleft (Ball ( et al. 1995) ) • At 3 years, transverse collapse is complete (Robertson et al. 1975) • Maxilla is narrow relative to mandible
Deciduous Canine Permanent Unilateral Transverse Problems Centrals Cleft • Narrow maxilla creates problems p (Gray 1975; Ross et al. 1967) – Arch length discrepancies (crowding) – Retarded maxillary growth ( (Maulina l et al. l 2007) ) – Dental cross‐bites • Rapid palatal expansion (RPE) ( )p performed to correct these problems
