Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to systematically analyze the effect and stability of miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) to provide a reference for the clinical treatment of patients with maxillary transverse deficiency (MTD).
Methods: We searched PubMed, Science Direct, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, and Wanfang Database for relevant studies published before February 18, 2021 and selected them according to the eligibility criteria. The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews (version 5.1.0) criteria were used for the quality assessment of randomized controlled trials, while the scoring protocol of the methodological index for non-randomized studies was used for non-randomized controlled trials. Statistical analysis was performed using the RevMan5.3 software.
Results: All the included studies showed a relatively high success rate of expansion. The changes in both the intermolar and alveolar widths after MARPE were statistically significant. MARPE exhibited greater skeletal expansion effects than did conventional RPE. The midpalatal suture was opened in parallel after MARPE. A small amount of relapse was observed 1 year after expansion. MARPE caused tooth inclination and a decrease in alveolar height, but it was less significant than in conventional RPE.
Conclusions: MARPE may be an effective treatment modality for patients with MTD. It causes great transverse skeletal expansion in late adolescence. In comparison to conventional RPE, MARPE has lower detrimental periodontal effects and has certain clinical advantages.
目的:本研究旨在系统分析微型辅助快速腭扩张术(MARPE)的效果及稳定性,为临床治疗上颌横突缺乏症(MTD)患者提供参考。方法:检索PubMed、Science Direct、Web of Science、Embase、Cochrane Library、CNKI、万方数据库等于2021年2月18日前发表的相关研究,并根据入选标准进行筛选。随机对照试验质量评价采用Cochrane系统评价手册(5.1.0版)标准,非随机对照试验质量评价采用方法学指标评分方案。采用RevMan5.3软件进行统计分析。结果:所有纳入的研究均显示出较高的扩张成功率。MARPE后磨牙间和牙槽宽度的变化均有统计学意义。MARPE表现出比常规RPE更大的骨骼扩张效应。MARPE后平行打开中腭缝线。扩大后1年有少量复发。MARPE引起牙齿倾斜和牙槽高度降低,但与常规RPE相比,其影响较小。结论:MARPE可能是MTD患者的一种有效治疗方式。它会在青春期后期引起巨大的横向骨骼扩张。与常规RPE相比,MARPE对牙周的不良影响较小,具有一定的临床优势。
期刊介绍:
The Korean Journal of Orthodontics (KJO) is an international, open access, peer reviewed journal published in January, March, May, July, September, and November each year. It was first launched in 1970 and, as the official scientific publication of Korean Association of Orthodontists, KJO aims to publish high quality clinical and scientific original research papers in all areas related to orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics. Specifically, its interest focuses on evidence-based investigations of contemporary diagnostic procedures and treatment techniques, expanding to significant clinical reports of diverse treatment approaches.
The scope of KJO covers all areas of orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics including successful diagnostic procedures and treatment planning, growth and development of the face and its clinical implications, appliance designs, biomechanics, TMJ disorders and adult treatment. Specifically, its latest interest focuses on skeletal anchorage devices, orthodontic appliance and biomaterials, 3 dimensional imaging techniques utilized for dentofacial diagnosis and treatment planning, and orthognathic surgery to correct skeletal disharmony in association of orthodontic treatment.
