Amaç: Bu retrospektif çalışmanın amacı, büyüme-gelişimi devam etmekte olan tek ya da çift taraflı üst çene darlığına sahip hastaların, iki farklı tip hızlı üst çene genişletme (HÜÇG) apareyi ile tedavileri sonucunda dental ve iskeletsel yapılarında meydana gelen sefalometrik değişimlerin değerlendirilmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya tek veya çift taraflı üst çene darlığı bulunan, ön açık hızlı üst çene apareyi ile tedavi görmüş 15 (8 kadın ve 7 erkek, ortalama yaş: 15,08±1,33 yıl) hasta ve tam akrilik kaplı HÜÇG apareyi ile tedavi görmüş 15 (10 kadın ve 5 erkek, ortalama yaş: 15,79±1,42 yıl) hasta olmak üzere toplam 30 adölesan birey dâhil edilmiştir. Bireylere ait sefalometrik analizler Dolphin sefalometrik görüntüleme yazılımı kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Verilerin grup içi karşılaştırılmasında bağımlı örneklem t-testi ve Wilcoxon Signed-Rank testi; gruplar arası karşılaştırmada ise bağımsız örneklem t-testi ve Mann-Whitney U kullanılmıştır. İstatistiksel anlamlılık değeri p<0,05 olarak kabul edilmiştir. Bulgular: Ön açık HÜÇG apareyi uygulanan grupta tedavi sonunda ANB ve SN-GoGn açıları anlamlı şekilde artarken U1/SN açısı anlamlı şekilde azalmıştır. Tam akrilik kaplı HÜÇG apareyi uygulanan grupta ise tedavi sonunda SNB ve N-Pog değerleri anlamlı derecede azalırken; ANB, SN/GoGn, L1/NB ve L1-NB değerleri anlamlı derecede artmıştır. İki grup arasında tedavi sonucunda meydana gelen değişiklikler kıyaslandığında anlamlı bir farklılık olmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç: Farklı aparey tipleri ile gerçekleştirilen HÜÇG'sinde meydana gelen sefalometrik değişikliklerin aparey tipine göre farklılık göstermediği ve her iki apareyinde benzer etkiler gösterdiği belirlenmiştir.

Objective: The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate the cephalometric changes in dental and skeletal structures after the application of two different rapid maxillary expansion (RME) appliances in patients with uni- or bilateral maxillary crossbite whose growth-development period continues. Material and Methods: A total of 30 adolescent individuals, including 15 patients with unilateral or bilateral maxillary crossbite who were treated with Open front (8-females and 7-males, 15.08±1.33 years) and 15 patients treated with full coverage RME (10-females and 5-males, 15.79±1.42 years) appliances, were included in the study. Cephalometric analyzes of individuals were performed with Dolphin cephalometric imaging software. Paired samples-t and Wilcoxon Signed-Rank tests were used to compare data within groups, while Mann-Whitney U and Independent Samples-t tests were used for intergroup comparisons. Statistical significance value was accepted as p<0.05. Results: At the end of the treatment, in the group where the Open front appliance was applied, the ANB and SNGoGn angles increased significantly, while the U1/SN angle decreased significantly. In the group where fully coverage RME appliance was applied, SNB and N-Pog values decreased significantly at the end of the treatment; ANB, SN/GoGn, L1/NB and L1-NB values increased significantly. When the changes occurring as a result of treatment were compared between the two groups, it was determined that there was no significant difference. Conclusion: It has been determined that the cephalometric changes occurring in maxillary expansion performed with different appliance types do not differ according to the appliance type and that both appliances show similar effects.
