Abstract:

Surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion (SARME) is a common method for treating maxillary transverse deficiency. This article aims to review published studies on the benefits and risks of the intraoperative release of the pterygomaxillary disjunction and the nasal septum and to compare the devices used postoperatively for SARME and the characteristics of three commonly used methods [SARME, rapid maxillary expansion (RME) and segmental maxillary osteotomy (SMO)] for treating maxillary transverse deficiency. Results indicate that the intraoperative release of the pterygomaxillary disjunction and the nasal septum is unnecessary during SARME to reduce intraoperative complications. Tooth- and bone-borne devices are effective and have unique advantages for SARME. Treatments with SARME, RME and SMO yield different therapeutic effects and expansion styles. The selection of a treatment method should be based on clinical requirements.

Key words: surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion, rapid maxillary expansion, segmental maxillary osteotomy, pterygomaxillary junction, nasal septum, device
