Custom MARPE A-Z Utilizing 3D Printed Technology – OrthoPerio Institute

September 12 - September 13

Maxillary hypoplasia is the most common form of skeletal jaw maldevelopment associated with the majority of malocclusions, increased periodontal and airway risks. Orthopedic maxillary skeletal expansion is the most effective treatment modality to resolve maxillary transverse deficiency. Historically optimal timing for maxillary skeletal expansion was determined to be in the mixed dentition due to mid-facial sutural patency. Until recently maxillary skeletal expansion was only achievable with Le Fort I osteotomies in adults. Conventional tooth-supported palatal expanders are known to produce unfavorable periodontal outcomes.

Introduction of temporary anchorage devices (TADs) into expanders significantly reduces periodontal risks and broadens the envelop of non-surgical correction in skeletally mature patients. Fully customized 3D printed expanders in conjunction with TADs allow skeletal maxillary expansion in adults WITHOUT surgery. This is by far the greatest orthodontic innovation of the last century. This course will assist clinicians to incorporate comprehensive three-dimensional management of the maxillary hypoplasia and optimize maxillary skeletal expansion with custom 3D printed implant-assisted expanders (custom MARPE) in their everyday practice.
