7 Figure6 Change in molar relationship from T1 to T2, an interval of 4years. In the untreated Class II group, the molar relationship on average did not change. In the expansion group, however, the molar relationship improved in 92% of the sample, with 48% improving 2 mm or more.

8 Figure7 Stages of maturation of the midpalatal suture as observed with CBCT images. Stage A is seen in this patient as a relatively straight high-density line at the midline. Stage B is observed as one scalloped, high density line at the midline. Stage C is visualized as two parallel, scalloped, high density lines that are close to each other and separated in some areas by small low-density spaces. Stage D is visualized as two scalloped, high-density lines at the midline on the maxillary portion of the palate, while the midpalatal suture cannot be visualized in palatine bone. At stage E, sutural fusion has occurred in the maxilla. From Angelieri et al., Seminars in Orthodontics  , 3-15DOI: ( /j.sodo ) Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions
