3D-printed versus conventional Hyrax expanders to widen the upper jaw in adolescents
This compares a 3D-printed Hyrax expander with a conventional Hyrax to see which widens the upper jaw better in adolescents with maxillary transverse deficiency.
-
Comparing two ways to widen the upper jaw: MARPE versus SARME
The team will test whether mini‑screw–assisted expansion (MARPE) or surgically‑assisted expansion (SARME) better widens the upper jaw and how each method changes nasal and sinus structures in people aged 15 and older with maxillary transverse deficiency.
-
Comparing 3D-Printed and Laboratory-Fabricated Maxillary Expanders
This study is testing whether a 3D-printed maxillary expander is just as effective and more comfortable than a traditional one for kids aged 8-13 who need orthodontic treatment.
