Effect of bone-borne maxillary skeletal expanders on cranial and circummaxillary sutures: A cone-beam computed tomography study
Both the C- and ATOZ expanders affected the suture width in the naso-maxillo-zygomatic region. The C-expander decreased the circum-zygomatic suture widths, whereas the ATOZ expander widened the frontozygomatic suture with no effect on other circummaxillary sutures.
