Comparison of Ultrasonography and Cone-beam Computed Tomography for Quantitative Assessment of Midpalatal Suture Opening after Rapid Palatal Expansion: A Pilot Study

Background: The study was to compare the ultrasonographic (USG) and cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) measurements of the width of anterior midpalatal suture (MPS) opening following rapid palatal expansion (RPE). Methods: The study included 13 patients (boys: 6; girls: 7) with a mean age of 11.8...
