Abstract
El tratamiento ortodóncico de pacientes con fisura de labio y/o paladar (FL/P) suele suponer un reto para el ortodoncista, ya que estos pacientes presentan con diferencias y limitaciones en su anatomía y fisiología que podrían limitar o alterar los resultados del tratamiento. Se han descrito en la literatura una variedad de modalidades de expansión rápida y lenta, pero son pocos los estudios que han comparado de forma precisa ambas modalidades en pacientes con FL/P y no hemos encontrado ningún estudio que haya comparado el expansor NiTi con otros aparatos de expansión en estos pacientes. El expansor NiTi reprogramable es el resultado de la combinación de dos tecnologías previamente descritas de manera independiente: el expansor NiTi y la máquina Bender Soarer-X para la reprogramación eléctrica de alambres de NiTi. Este novedoso dispositivo ofrece ventajas distintivas sobre los otros métodos de expansión, como son la memoria de forma, la capacidad de reprogramación, la ausencia de riesgo de sobreexpansión, la no interferencia con el campo quirúrgico y la reducción del número de visitas y del coste. El objetivo de este estudio es analizar los efectos dentoalveolares del expansor NiTi reprogramable en pacientes con fisura de labio y paladar unilateral completa (FLPUC) y compararlos con los efectos de los métodos actuales de expansión. Este es el primer estudio que analiza los efectos del expansor NiTi reprogramable en pacientes con FLP...
The orthodontic treatment of patients with cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) is often a challenge for the orthodontist, as these patients present with differences and limitations in their anatomy and physiology that could limit or alter the treatment results. A variety of rapid and slow expansion modalities have been described in the literature, but few studies have precisely compared rapid to slow maxillary expansion modalities in patients with CL/P and no study has compared the NiTi expander to other appliances in patients with CL/P. The reprogrammable NiTi expander results from the combination of two previously independently described technologies, the NiTi expander and the Bender Soarer-X electrical reprogramming of NiTi wires. This novel appliance offers distinctive advantages over the other methods of expansion, such as shape memory, programmability, no risk of overexpansion, surgical field non-interference, and reduction in number of visits and cost. The aim of this study was to analyze the dentoalveolar effects of the reprogrammable NiTi expander in patients with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) and compare them to the effects of the current methods of expansion. This is the first study to analyze the effects of the reprogrammable NiTi expander in patients with CL/P...
