Associations Between Radiographic Inclination of Premolars and Maxillary Expansion
Sponsor: University of Pavia
Summary
Recruitment of patients treated using rapid maxillary expanders with dental anchorage, with pre-treatment panoramic X-rays and post-treatment models. In the initial phase of the study, the objective is to correlate the radiographic inclination of the upper permanent premolars in the pre-treatment orthopantomography to the expansion obtained at the end of therapy using a palatal expander with dental anchorage.
