Detailed Description
Aim of the study: To evaluate the Effectiveness of Four Mini-screws Supported Hyrax for Maxillary Expansion in Early Adulthood
Methodology:
-
Essential record for orthodontic treatment will be taken.
-
impression with bands on upper first molars will be taken.
-
Four eyelets will be soldered to the body of the hyrax appliance (size 10, Dentaurum, Germany).
-
CBCT will be taken while patient wearing 1 mm thickness vacuum on the lower arch to dis-occlude both arches.
-
Delivery, check the retention and fitness of the appliance.
-
The appliance will be cemented using band cement(compomer).
-
Using 3M contra-angle driver, the screws (Tomas screw size 10, Dentaurum, Germany) will be loaded and inserted.
-
Activation of the appliance by opening it two turns immediately, followed by two turns everyday till cross bite correction or appearance of midline diastema.
-
Closure of the device, and leave the appliance in-situ for five months as a retention.
-
Post-expansion CBCT will be taken and continue fixed orthodontic treatment.
Outcome: skeletal and dento-alveolar expansion will be evaluated

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Skeletal maxillary expansion [5 months interval between pre and post-expansion]
To compare the amount of skeletal expansion pre and post expansion
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Dento-alaveolar expansion [5 months interval between pre and post-expansion]
To compare the amount of Dento-alaveolar expansion pre and post expansion
