The comparison of biomechanical effects of the conventional and bone-borne palatal expanders on late adolescence with unilateral cleft palate: a 3-dimensional finite element analysis
Abstract Background Patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate were associated with different nasomaxillary complex from the normal population. Although the biomechanical effects of conventional rapid palatal expansion (Hyrax expansion) and bone-borne rapid palatal expansion (micro-implant-assist...
