          ABSTRACT

          OBJECTIVE:

          The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the duration of the retention period in growing patients undergoing maxillary expansion and its relation with posterior crossbite stability.

          METHODS:

          Search strategies were executed for electronic databases Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed and Scopus, which were completed on January 15, 2016. The inclusion criteria included randomized, prospective or retrospective controlled trials in growing subjects with posterior crossbite; treated with maxillary expanders; retention phase after expansion; post-retention phase of at least 6 months. The exclusion criteria were anterior crossbite, craniofacial anomalies, surgery or another orthodontic intervention; case reports; author’s opinions articles, thesis, literature reviews and systematic reviews. The risk of bias of selected articles was assessed with Cochrane risk of bias tool for RCTs and Downs and Black checklist for non-RCTs.

          RESULTS:

          A total of 156 titles/abstracts was retrieved, 44 full-texts were examined, and 6 articles were selected and assessed for their methodological quality. The retention period after maxillary expansion ranged between 4 weeks and 16 months. Fixed (acrylic plate, Haas, Hyrax and quad-helix) or removable (Hawley and Hawley expander) appliances were used for retention.

          CONCLUSIONS:

          Six months of retention with either fixed or removable appliances seem to be enough to avoid relapse or to guarantee minimal changes in a short-term follow-up.

          RESUMO

          OBJETIVO:

          o objetivo da presente revisão sistemática foi avaliar a duração do período de contenção e a estabilidade do tratamento ortodôntico com expansão maxilar em pacientes em crescimento com mordida cruzada posterior.

          MÉTODOS:

          foram realizadas buscas estratégicas nas bases eletrônicas: Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed e Scopus, até 15 de janeiro de 2016. Os critérios de inclusão foram: estudos clínicos controlados e randomizados, prospectivos ou retrospectivos, de pacientes em crescimento com mordida cruzada; tratados com aparelhos expansores maxilares, com fase de contenção pós-expansão e no mínimo seis meses de fase de pós-contenção. Os critérios de exclusão foram: mordida cruzada anterior, anomalias craniofaciais, cirurgia ou outro tratamento ortodôntico; relato de casos; artigos de opinião; teses; revisões de literatura e revisões sistemáticas. O risco de viés dos artigos selecionados foi avaliado a partir do Cochrane risk of bias tool para ensaios clínicos randomizados e Downs and Black checklist para ensaios clínicos não randomizados.

          RESULTADOS:

          a busca resultou em 156 títulos/resumos, sendo 44 textos examinados na íntegra. Foram selecionados 6 artigos para o acesso à qualidade metodológica. A duração do período de contenção ocorreu entre 4 semanas e 6 meses. Aparelhos fixos (aparelho em acrílico, Haas, Hyrax e quad-helix) ou removíveis (Hawley e Hawley com expansor) foram utilizados na fase de contenção.

          CONCLUSÃO:

          parece que seis meses de contenção com aparelhos fixos ou removíveis são suficientes para evitar a recidiva ou garantir mudanças mínimas em um curto período de acompanhamento pós-contenção.

            Miniscrew-assisted nonsurgical palatal expansion before orthognathic surgery for a patient with severe mandibular prognathism.

            A transverse maxillary deficiency in an adult is a challenging problem, especially when it is combined with a severe anteroposterior jaw discrepancy. The demand for nonsurgical maxillary expansion might increase as patients and clinicians try to avoid a 2-stage surgical procedure-surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion followed by orthognathic surgery-and detrimental periodontal effects and relapse. In this regard, a miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion was devised and used to treat a 20-year-old patient who had severe transverse discrepancy and mandibular prognathism. Sufficient maxillary orthopedic expansion with minimal tipping of the buccal segment was achieved preoperatively, and orthognathic surgery corrected the anteroposterior discrepancy. The periodontal soundness and short-term stability of the maxillary expansion were confirmed both clinically and radiologically. Effective incorporation of orthodontic miniscrews for transverse correction might help eliminate the need for some surgical procedures in patients with complex craniofacial discrepancies by securing the safety and stability of the treatment, assuming that the suture is still patent.
