Midpalatal suture osteotomy combined with microimplant-assisted rapid palatal expansion for adult maxillary transverse deficiency treatment: a study protocol of a randomised controlled trial
Introduction Maxillary transverse deficiency (MTD) is a common type of malocclusion. For adult MTD patients with highly ossified midpalatal sutures, surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion (SARPE) has been the conventional method of maxillary expansion. However, SARPE has the disadvantages of si...
