Over the past century we have noted a decrease in jaw size, and an increase in underdeveloped jaws, which fail to accommodate teeth. This has affected how the tongue, the primary oral structure, fits in the mouth. Over time many treatment modalities have been made to expand the upper arch or the maxilla to help accommodate the teeth and the tongue. This seminar will focus on different orthodontic appliances used to achieve palatal expansion.
